Security & authenticity

Security rating: Trusted

Signing certificate

Signed with Android's public test key This key is published with Android's source code, so anyone can sign a file with it.
The same certificate signs apps from 141 different developers Developers sign only their own apps, so this almost always means the files were re-signed by someone else — often after being modified.
Other versions use a different certificate v16 and v14. Android normally won't update an installed app with a file signed by another certificate, and a new certificate can mean a different publisher. v16 · v14

Wallpapers APK: questions and answers

Is there a version of Wallpapers for older Android phones?

The current version needs Android 4.4 or later. Version 1.3.169416333 is the newest listed build that installs on Android 4.1 and later. It is an old build: apps that rely on online services may no longer connect when they are this old. Get version 1.3.169416333 · All versions

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

Only if it is signed with the same certificate as the copy on your phone and isn't an older version. If Android says “App not installed”, the certificates differ; uninstalling your copy first works but deletes its data unless it is backed up.

Is the Wallpapers APK safe?

No one can promise that a file is safe, but some things can be checked. The source store rates this file Trusted. It is signed with Android's public test key, which anyone can use. Its signing certificate is also used for apps from 141 different developers. Some other versions are signed with a different certificate. After downloading, check that the file's MD5 is 9ae88f63af4a396ff48d22c0c8de017f.
