Cons
Con Outdated apps
Con Seems a bit fishy
With zero information on how devs can upload content to their store it does strike as questionable as to where all of their apps are coming from. Being that every app on the store is free they could potentially just be pulling apps from the Google Play Store.
Seeing links at the bottom of their store that say "crack apk" that lead to a pirate apk store also does not instill much confidence in this market.
Con Uploads by Unknown Authors
Tampered apps risk & questionable security.
Con Unknown developers/backers
When you search the entire internet and in several different languages, you cannot find who is behind APKPure. Many people are afraid of using APKPure because the identities of everyone involved is a secret, making it hard to trust them.
Con Malware
Installs malware in background (keylogger as well).
Con Difficult to contact them
There are many people wondering if it is safe and use APKpure, and some who want to tell about apps available on Google Play to put them there, but it's impossible to contact APKPure
Con Annoying ads
It shows a blocking ad on startup, and another ad when you download. They are very annoying ads with sound, and taking up the whole screen.
Con Cumbersome UI
UI feels clunky and promotes sketchy apps
