Hi @pancanomics ,

Riskware stands for “risky software” — it refers to legitimate applications that can be misused for malicious purposes if exploited by an attacker. In your case, the detection Riskware.Agent.NUI was triggered by the APK file from androeed.store, which is not a trusted app source.

These types of apps:

• Might bypass OS restrictions.
• Can request dangerous permissions (like access to contacts, messages, or background processes).
• Could be repacked or injected with malware loaders without the user knowing.

Even if the app appears to be working fine, it carries a security risk, especially when sourced outside the Play Store. I’d personally recommend deleting it, unless you know and trust the source 100%.

If you’re unsure, you can upload the file to VirusTotal.com for a second opinion.

Hope this helps and stay safe
