### Warning about malicious sites It has come to my attention that malicious websites (specifically magiskmodule[.]gitlab[.]io and others) are writing fake articles about Compressor and linking to Ransomware/Malware instead of the real app. Please ONLY download Compressor from: - GitHub Releases (This repo) - Google Play Store (Early Access) - IzzyOnDroid - APKMirror If you see a "Secure Verify" or "Human Verification" page, CLOSE IT IMMEDIATELY. That is not me. Compressor is free and open source. I will never ask you to "Verify" to download.
