About this APK

Home Up is an app. It includes native code only for ARM 64-bit, so it won't install on phones that can only run 32-bit apps.

Since version 14.0.00.31, the minimum Android version rose from 13 to 16. It asks for 24 permissions, 1 of them sensitive: see all installed apps. Compared with version 14.0.00.31, it drops 4 permissions: “Bind chooser target service”, “Full network access”, “Read media images” and “Modify shared storage”.
