About this APK
Crackle is an app by Hulu in the Entertainment category, listed since at least March 2012. It includes native code for x86 32-bit, x86 64-bit, ARM 32-bit and ARM 64-bit, so it runs on practically every phone. It also supports Android TV.
Since version 4.4.5.0, the minimum Android version rose from 4.0 to 6.0. It asks for 10 permissions, none of them sensitive. Compared with version 6.1.9, it adds 4 new permissions (“Advertising ID”, “Change wifi multicast state”, “Run at startup” and “Transmit ir”) and drops 6 (“Precise location”, “Read shared storage”, “Read phone status and identity” and 3 more).

Crackle APK: questions and answers
Is there a version of Crackle for older Android phones?
The current version needs Android 6.0 or later. Version 6.1.9 is the newest listed build that installs on Android 4.4 and later. It is an old build: apps that rely on online services may no longer connect when they are this old. Get version 6.1.9 · All versions
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 Crackle APK safe?
No one can promise that a file is safe, but some things can be checked. The source store rates this file Trusted. It is signed with the same certificate as the 4 other versions checked. After downloading, check that the file's MD5 is e8c20bed737567c2df35a786b3e51867.
