Security & authenticity
Signing certificate
- Certificate issued to “TRUMods” Not the developer's name (“Friendly App Studio”). Names in certificates can't be verified, so this alone proves nothing.
- The same certificate signs apps from 22 different developers Developers sign only their own apps, so this almost always means the files were re-signed by someone else — often after being modified.

Friendly Social Browser 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 Friendly Social Browser free?
The APK is free to download, but the app offers in-app purchases through Google Play.
Is the Friendly Social Browser 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. Its signing certificate is also used for apps from 22 different developers. After downloading, check that the file's MD5 is c9e8612bba0514c5baa5c7442174ac94.
