About this APK

Chicago Baseball - Sox Edition is an app by Appness, LLC in the Sports category. 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 7.0.2, the minimum Android version rose from 5.0 to 7.0. It asks for 16 permissions, 1 of them sensitive: approximate location. Compared with version 7.0.14, it adds 6 new permissions (“Access adservices ad id”, “Access adservices attribution”, “Access adservices topics” and 3 more) and drops 2 (“Read shared storage” and “Run at startup”). The app can read the advertising ID that ad and analytics services use.

What's new in v7.25.0

Added live league scores summary (accessible via game tab). Made large tiles on news stories list default setting. (this is changed back to smaller tiles if desired via app settings).
