Description

From the listing uploaded by “abdullah-mohsen”.

Circle is The MOST POPULAR Local Network. "The most beautiful Android App there is. Period." Circle is the mobile app that’s in the know, anywhere you go. Circle keeps you up to speed by adapting to your location and letting you share and discover what’s happening near you. Our goal is to build on the lessons learned from traditional social networks to make a new kind of community: positive, local and useful, wherever you are. Each month, more than a million people are joining Circle for real-time information and conversation about nearby crime, traffic, natural disasters - as well as places to go and things to do. Lost dogs. Best fishing spots. Free kids events. Closed roads. Flash mobs. Amazing, scary, exciting and crazy [what? “things”, “stories”?] are happening everywhere. The Circle community is there to help you navigate your world.

Circle - The Local Network APK: questions and answers

Can I install this APK over the version I already have?

Only if it is signed with the same certificate as the copy on your phone and isn't an older version. If Android says “App not installed”, the certificates differ; uninstalling your copy first works but deletes its data unless it is backed up.

Is the Circle - The Local Network APK safe?

No one can promise that a file is safe, but some things can be checked. The source store flagged this file with a security warning. After downloading, check that the file's MD5 is 284dca3d5d64d3018de01370642529ba.
