What's new in v1.6.91
VLC on Android 1.6.6 is a minor update to VLC
We've worked a lot to improve the internal decoding speed and the interface speed, and at the same time, prepare for Android 6.0.
The number of permissions needed were reduced, especially for KitKat (4.4) and more recent.
We've accelerated the video playback speed, for 4K support.
The interface was cleaned and speed up, with more Material look.
And a few new features, like USB auto-detection, better audio/video sync or better chapters support.

How to install VLC for Android v1.6.91 on Android API 7+
Takes about 2 minutes. You'll need roughly 13.1 MB of free storage.
- Grab org.videolan.vlc_1069104.apk — hit the Download button above (13.1 MB). If your browser warns about APK files, choose Keep or Download anyway — that warning fires on every APK, not just this one.
- Trust your browser to install — on Android 8+ go to Settings → Apps → Special access → Install unknown apps, pick the app you downloaded with (Chrome, Firefox, Files, etc.), and flip Allow from this source. On older Android, toggle Unknown sources under Security.
- (Optional) Verify the file — compute the MD5 of the downloaded APK and make sure it matches 62d78797dd489ba2…. Any difference means the file is corrupted or tampered — delete and re-download.
- Open the APK — tap the download notification, or find org.videolan.vlc_1069104.apk in your Files app under Downloads, then tap it. Android's package installer will appear.
- Check the signer — the install screen will name the publisher. For this build it should read CN=Jean-Baptiste Kempf, O=VideoLAN Mobile, L=Paris, C=FR. If it doesn't match, cancel — you have the wrong file.
- Review permissions & tap Install — scroll the permission list, then confirm. If Play Protect flags it, tap Install anyway (this APK was scanned as TRUSTED).
- Done — open VLC for Android — tap Open on the install screen, or find the VLC for Android icon in your app drawer (this build targets armeabi-v7a devices).
Common install errors for VLC for Android
- "App not installed" — usually means an older or differently-signed version is already on your device. Uninstall it first, then retry. Your data may be lost unless you back it up.
- "Parse error" — the APK is for a newer Android than yours. This version needs Android API 7 or later. Pick an older build from the versions list below.
- "There was a problem parsing the package" — the download was interrupted. Delete the file and re-download over Wi-Fi.
- Works on one phone but not another — this build ships armeabi-v7a native code. Devices with a different CPU will reject it.
