Security & authenticity

Security rating: Trusted

Signing certificate

  • Certificate with Google's generic name Google Play App Signing gives the keys it manages this name, but anyone can put it in a certificate, so this alone proves nothing.
  • Other versions use a different certificate v12.37.22.25.arm and v11.31.16.21.x86_64. Android normally won't update an installed app with a file signed by another certificate, and a new certificate can mean a different publisher. v12.37.22.25.arm · v11.31.16.21.x86_64

Google APK: questions and answers

Is there a version of Google for older Android phones?

The current version needs Android 6.0 or later. Version 1.4.1.390215 is the newest listed build that installs on Android 2.2 and later. It is an old build: apps that rely on online services may no longer connect when they are this old. Get version 1.4.1.390215 · 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 APK safe?

No one can promise that a file is safe, but some things can be checked. The source store rates this file Trusted. Some other versions are signed with a different certificate. After downloading, check that the file's MD5 is f7beb5dd28e408eb650197d78f335215.
