Claude by Anthropic

Before Claude by Anthropic earns space on an Android device, the important question is not just whether it is popular. The better question is whether the APK identity, developer name, version, privacy policy, source status, and category fit all point in the same direction. For this productivity app, opskd highlights com.anthropic.claude, Anthropic PBC, version 1.260223.17, Not published by official listing, and Check official listing before install so the listing can be checked without guessing.

The official short summary says: "The AI assistant that thinks with you - write, code, and solve complex tasks". opskd treats that as a claim to verify, not as a complete review, because store copy often emphasizes features while leaving permissions, account requirements, monetization, and source status for the user to check separately.

10,000,000+ installs indicates broad adoption, so comparison should focus on whether the current version still matches the reputation built by earlier releases. 4.7 out of 5 across 222,559 ratings is a strong popularity signal, but it should still be read beside update freshness, privacy posture, and the exact developer name. High ratings can indicate satisfaction, yet they do not prove that permissions, pricing, or account requirements fit your use case.

The listing has been updated within the past year, about 97 days ago. That is acceptable for many categories, but the official listing should still be checked for compatibility notes and recent user feedback.

Who this APK listing is for

Claude by Anthropic is most relevant for people who use Android for documents, planning, notes, work communication, scanning, or repeatable daily workflows. A good fit means the app's stated purpose, screenshots, rating pattern, developer identity, and official source all support the same story. If you only need a quick category browse, compare it with nearby productivity alternatives; if you are close to installing, slow down and check the APK identity rows first.

• Best fit: people who use Android for documents, planning, notes, work communication, scanning, or repeatable daily workflows.
• Review focus: reliability, account dependency, export options, sync behavior, offline mode, privacy controls, and how easy it is to leave the app later.
• Current public signal: 10,000,000+ installs and 4.7 out of 5 rating data.

APK source and identity

This page exposes APK metadata for the listing but does not claim to host a standalone APK package. That distinction is intentional. Use the package name, version, file size field, Android requirement, and official listing link as comparison points when you verify the app outside opskd.

• Package: com.anthropic.claude.
• Version shown: 1.260223.17.
• Source status: APK metadata only.
• Integrity status: No standalone APK hash is published for this listing yet.

Listing quality signals

The useful signals for Claude by Anthropic are not only the headline score. opskd reads the listing through category fit, developer transparency, version clarity, source status, screenshot availability, privacy policy access, and whether the official description makes specific claims that can be checked. For productivity, the most important review focus is reliability, account dependency, export options, sync behavior, offline mode, privacy controls, and how easy it is to leave the app later.

• Ads or ad-like wording appear in the listing, so review whether placement interrupts active tasks or gameplay.
• Family or learning language makes age fit, privacy policy clarity, and parent controls especially important.
• Online, social, or leaderboard features can add account, moderation, and notification considerations.
• Device data or file-related language means permissions should be compared with the app purpose before install.

Trust checks before install

For productivity apps, permissions can matter as much as the feature list. verify file access permissions, cloud sync settings, subscription terms, background activity, and whether the app works without an account. A privacy policy is especially important when the app handles documents, children's activity, learning progress, files, cloud sync, user accounts, location, chat, or social features. If a permission does not fit the app's purpose, treat that as a reason to slow down and verify the developer's explanation.

• Developer website — Check ownership, support channels, and product documentation from Anthropic PBC.
• Privacy policy — Review what data may be collected, shared, or retained.
• Official listing — Confirm the current version, rating, screenshots, and install availability.
