Security & authenticity
Security rating: Warning
Signing certificate
- Certificate issued to “NY” Not the developer's name (“BIGO TECHNOLOGY PTE. LTD.”). Names in certificates can't be verified, so this alone proves nothing.
- Signed differently from the Google Play version v4.1.0, which matches Google Play, uses another certificate. Android normally won't update an installed Play Store copy with this file. v4.1.0
Store checks
- Developer signature check failed Apr 3, 2019

Scans come from the source store; the certificate comparisons are AAPKs's own, made from the files' published signatures (3 other versions compared). AAPKs doesn't scan files itself.
How to install Bigo Live - Live Stream, Live Video, Live Chat on Android 4.0.3+
You'll need about 71.5 MB of free space.
- Download the APK — tap Download APK above (35.7 MB). Chrome shows “File might be harmful” for every APK file; choose Download anyway only if you trust this file.
- Open the file — tap the download notification, or open Files › Downloads and tap sg-bigo-live-1-45244428-d2d2b963bebfd5898c0c45eacaa7995a.apk.
- Allow the install (first time only) — Android 8 and later asks for permission the first time an app opens an APK: tap Settings in the prompt, turn on Allow from this source, then go back. Manual path: Settings › Apps › Special app access › Install unknown apps (on Samsung: Settings › Apps › ⋮ › Special access). On Android 7 and older: Settings › Security › Unknown sources.
- Check the file (optional) — the MD5 of the downloaded file should be d2d2b963bebfd5898c0c45eacaa7995a. If it differs, the file is damaged or was changed: delete it and download again.
- Tap Install — Android asks “Do you want to install this app?”. The source store flagged this file with a security warning; we recommend not installing it. If Play Protect blocks it, tap Cancel. If an earlier version is installed, this one only installs as an update when it is signed with the same certificate (SHA-1 shown above).
- Open Bigo Live - Live Stream, Live Video, Live Chat — tap Open on the install screen, or find it in your app drawer.
Common install problems
- “App not installed” — a version signed with a different certificate, or a newer version, is already installed (Android doesn't allow downgrades). Uninstall it first; back up your data, because uninstalling deletes it.
- “There was a problem parsing the package” — the file is incomplete, or your Android is too old (this version needs Android 4.0.3+). Download it again, or pick an older version.
- Blocked by Play Protect — Play Protect checks apps from outside the Play Store. Only continue if you trust the source; for this file we recommend not to.
