[Official] Samsung TouchWiz Home APK: questions and answers
Is there a version of [Official] Samsung TouchWiz Home for older Android phones?
The current version needs Android 4.2 or later. Version 4.1.1-N7100ZSALJ7 is the newest listed build that installs on Android 4.1 and later. It is an old build: apps that rely on online services may no longer connect when they are this old. Get version 4.1.1-N7100ZSALJ7 · 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 [Official] Samsung TouchWiz Home 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 ddeb690e4ee179bf5fb0bca2631d6aec.
