North Connected Home Bulb APK: questions and answers
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 North Connected Home Bulb APK safe?
