About this APK
Pixel Artist - Camera Effects is an app by Sofica in the Photography category, listed since at least May 2013. It includes native code only for x86 32-bit, ARM (legacy), ARM 32-bit and MIPS, so it won't run on 64-bit-only phones such as recent Pixels.
It asks for 9 permissions, 3 of them sensitive: camera, read phone status and identity and modify shared storage. The app offers in-app purchases through Google Play.

Can I install this APK over the version I already have?
