Anyway to check if an APK is malicious (easily) wondering about Mihon repos in particular!

So with the recent tachiyomi issues and the migration to Mihon I'm nervous of their list of repos as they're all APKs I'm wondering if anyone knows of any that are definitely legit and from the originals that were self hosted?

Virustotal can scan APKs afaik

Thank you for the recommendation

This, of course, can only tell you if an apk is malicious, it cannot tell you if it is not malicious.

Additionally I would recommend running Eset on your phone. The free tier allows to scan apps.
