About this APK

Google Play services is an app by Google Inc. in the Tools category, listed since at least September 2012. It includes native code only for ARM 32-bit, so it won't run on 64-bit-only phones such as recent Pixels.

Since version 11.9.49 (836-176442569), the APK grew from 24.2 MB to 46.4 MB and the minimum Android version rose from 4.4 to 6.0. It asks for 310 permissions, 31 of them sensitive, including precise location, location in the background and camera. Compared with version 25.18.33 (040300-756823100), it drops 4 permissions: “Backup”, “Health.read heart rate”, “Read nearby streaming policy” and “Register call provider”. The app can read the advertising ID that ad and analytics services use.

Google Play services APK: questions and answers

Is there a version of Google Play services for older Android phones?

The current version needs Android 6.0 or later. Version 24.28.35 (080406-657754416) is the newest listed build that installs on Android 5.0 and later. It is an old build: apps that rely on online services may no longer connect when they are this old. Get version 24.28.35 (080406-657754416) · 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 Google Play services 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 2 other versions checked. After downloading, check that the file's MD5 is 3591815e7694a98005016abc4a48b33c.
