About this APK

Chicago Baseball Cubs Edition is an app by Appness, LLC in the Sports category, listed since at least June 2023. It includes native code only for ARM 64-bit, so it won't install on phones that can only run 32-bit apps.

Since version 7.25.0, the APK grew from 27.7 MB to 45.2 MB. Since version 7.0.14, the minimum Android version rose from 5.0 to 7.0. It asks for 16 permissions, none of them sensitive. Compared with version 7.25.0, it adds 1 new permission (“Read basic phone state”) and drops 1 (“Approximate location”). The app can read the advertising ID that ad and analytics services use.

What's new in v8.1.24

• Home screen widget: tap Scores or Plays and jump straight to that view, even when the app isn't running. • Faster, smoother, and more reliable across the board.

Description

From the listing uploaded by “appupdater”.

Follow Chicago's team with Chicago (North Side) Baseball, an unofficial Chicago Cubs fan app. We keep it simple, with Cubbies news and opinion, live scores, team schedule, player stats, and MLB standings. While we check in on what's happening around baseball and the minors, our app mostly focuses on the Cubs. Chicago Baseball is always free, with no sign-in ever required, no in-app purchases, and no nag screens. Note: This application is associated with Major League Baseball or the Chicago Cubs.
