About this APK
Paltel NetGuard is an app by PALTEL in the Business category. It includes native code only for ARM 32-bit, so it won't run on 64-bit-only phones such as recent Pixels.
Since version 1.4, the minimum Android version rose from 4.0.3 to 4.1. It asks for 26 permissions, 3 of them sensitive: camera, read shared storage and modify shared storage. Compared with version 1.4, it adds 5 new permissions (“Camera”, “Read shared storage”, “Control vibration” and 2 more) and drops 3 (“Precise location”, “View Wi-Fi connections” and “Read phone status and identity”).

Paltel NetGuard APK: questions and answers
Is there a version of Paltel NetGuard for older Android phones?
The current version needs Android 4.1 or later. Version 1.4 is the newest listed build that installs on Android 4.0.3 and later. It is an old build: apps that rely on online services may no longer connect when they are this old. Get version 1.4 · 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 Paltel NetGuard APK safe?
No one can promise that a file is safe, but some things can be checked. The source store rates this file Trusted. It is signed with the same certificate as the other version checked. After downloading, check that the file's MD5 is 38c7382763126f5bf9e9b8873fde9451.
