X Locker - Themes & Wallpapers is an app by X-Locker Team in the Personalization category, listed since at least December 2015. It includes native code only for ARM (legacy), so it won't run on 64-bit-only phones such as recent Pixels.
It asks for 13 permissions, 3 of them sensitive: read phone status and identity, display over other apps and modify shared storage. Compared with version 2.5.11, it drops 4 permissions: “Read call log”, “Read contacts”, “Read sms” and “Prevent the device from sleeping”.
