About this APK

Pokémon HOME is an app by The Pokemon Company in the Tools category, listed since at least June 2021. 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 1.3.3, the minimum Android version rose from 5.0 to 6.0. It asks for 24 permissions, 5 of them sensitive, including precise location, camera and record audio. Compared with version 4.0.3, it adds 3 new permissions: “Access adservices topics”, “Run at startup” and “Run foreground services”. The app offers in-app purchases through Google Play and can read the advertising ID that ad and analytics services use.
