About this APK
Video Compress is an app by Mel Games in the Video Players & Editors category, listed since at least February 2016. It includes native code only for x86 64-bit, so it won't install on ordinary ARM phones (only on x86 devices such as emulators and some Chromebooks).
Since version 3.7.04, the minimum Android version rose from 4.0 to 7.0. It asks for 13 permissions, 2 of them sensitive: read media video and read media audio. It asks for the same permissions as version 7.3.0. The app offers in-app purchases through Google Play and can read the advertising ID that ad and analytics services use.
