HBO GO APK: questions and answers

Does HBO GO need Google Play services?

Yes. The APK declares Google Play services as required, so it may not work on phones without them, such as recent Huawei models.

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 HBO GO 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 b1f7067a46877a3d1bc60dc05d964040.
