Safety guides & download checklists

The JoJoy Safety Team writes the safety-focused guides on this blog: how to judge a download page before you tap the button, which permissions deserve a second look, how to read a Play Protect warning, and how to recover when an install goes wrong. The guides are built around one idea: no modified build can be promised to be risk-free, so the useful thing is a short set of checks you can apply yourself every time — and a way back if something does go wrong.

The checklists in our guides are based on how Android handles permissions, package signatures and installs, and on the information JoJoy shows for every listing: package name, version, file size, Android requirement, and the Data safety disclosure from Google Play with a link to its source. JoJoy does not run antivirus scans and does not test each build on physical devices, and our guides say so rather than imply otherwise. Our advice stays consistent with Google Play Protect: keep it switched on, read its warning, and decide for yourself. Guides are revised when Android's install and permission behavior changes or when readers report a problem.
