About this APK

PDF Viewer & Book Reader is an app by Maple Media in the Productivity category, listed since at least September 2016. 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 2.6.6, the minimum Android version rose from 4.0.3 to 4.1. It asks for 27 permissions, 1 of them sensitive: modify shared storage. Compared with version 2.6.6, it adds 4 new permissions (“Control vibration”, “Google Play install referrer”, “Read app badge” and “Run at startup”) and drops 1 (“Read Google service settings”). The app offers in-app purchases through Google Play.
