I’ve seen multiple people here talk about lucky patcher and wanted to try it out, found the official site though reddit (cos I’ve had google give me badware links for things like these before) and the site rang every alarm bell in my brain.
From the too-good-to-be-true premise to the red text before the download saying that the app is Perfectly Safe, scanned the apk with virustotal (not perfectly accurate i know) and it returned a bunch of flags.

So is luckypatchers.com the actual site?

Edit: got the apk from the direct download link in the subreddit’s about page and ran it on waydroid, seemed legit but also very old and the custom patches would just make the app (YouTube in this case) close instantly.
Might be some google service detecting something’s off or maybe the patch is just outdated.

    root unlocks some features but is not required.

    i didn’t get much success because the apps i tried it with were all newer versions and the patches were 3 years old at minimum but it might work better with like removing ads on a unity game or things like that

    the app also has a pretty odd and old-school ui (read: ugly as sin) but i got the hang of patching and installing without a guide, no doubt there are some on the site though
