In this guide we will discuss what AppLinked is as well as how to use and install it. This app can be installed on almost any device e.g. Firestick, Fire Cube, Nvidia Shield, Android box, Chromecast, phones, tablets, PC and more. However, this app cannot be installed from the Google Play or Amazon app store. In order to install it, it must be sideloaded.
The Amazon Firestick is a popular streaming device that offers excellent value for money and can be jailbroken with minimal effort. It is a perfect choice for anyone looking to cut the cord, regardless of their experience with streaming devices.

What is AppLinked?
AppLinked is a file sharing application that appeared on the scene in June 2021 soon after the popular and long running Filelinked stopped working. We also saw other Filelinked clones appear such as FileSynced and Unlinked. File sharing applications are popular with cord-cutters that ‘jailbreak‘ their streaming devices in order to access free content.
Stores can be created using AppLinked with a unique identifying code. Access to AppLinked stores provide download links to popular applications across various categories, including movies, TV shows, live TV, sports, tools and more.
AppLinked was originally created by the same developer of Media Lounge, Strix and UK Turks.
Is AppLinked Safe?
The safety of AppLinked is something that has been brought into question since ownership of the application changed hands in October 2021. Up until then, all virus scans of the AppLinked application identified it as safe.
When ownership changed hands, AppLinked received an update at the same time that raised 16 red flags with VirusTotal. Malicious detections included trojans, riskware and malware.
The new update of AppLinked also increased in size from 4 MB to around 34 MB. This, combined with the Virus Total detections certainly raised aroused suspicion.
Since then, the AppLinked application has bounced between being safe and raising red flags. The latest version wouldn’t even pass Windows Defender checks when trying to download the app onto my PC.
A severe threat is identified with a trojan script and warns: “this program is dangerous and executes commands from an attacker.”
With this in mind, the version of AppLinked that is available to download from my Downloads page is an older version. This version has been identified as safe with numerous anti-virus scanners.
Is AppLinked Legal?
Yes. This app does not host any content and is in essence just an app store. It is therefore 100% legal to install and use. However, it is unlikely that the applications you go on to install from AppLinked hold the proper licencing for distributing content. In reality, this means you will be unlawfully streaming copyrighted content. Doing so could get you into legal trouble. Accordingly, you may prefer to keep your streaming activity anonymous with a VPN.

In order to stream anonymously, stay protected, and unlock the internet, I recommend using NordVPN.

Wrapping Up
AppLinked certainly is a convenient and easy way to download popular streaming apps onto your devices. However, due to the chequered and somewhat dubious history of AppLinked, I recommend that you install and use it at your own risk.
All applications you can find on my Downloads page are safe to install. You will find a warning message on any app page that flags as suspicious. This way you are forewarned about potential malicious files and can make up your own mind whether or not to install.
