Yr APK: questions and answers

Does Yr 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 Yr APK safe?

No one can promise that a file is safe, but some things can be checked. The source store rates this file Trusted. After downloading, check that the file's MD5 is 88cb008d82e27a089a85f747258ac53e.
