Supported platforms
Most Indian fantasy platforms support current Android (9 and above) and iOS (15 and above) versions. Older OS versions may not receive the latest security patches and could be blocked at the store level.
Where to find the official Fantafeat app, how to check supported platforms and minimum OS, and the two-minute checklist that separates the official build from a counterfeit APK. We do not link to third-party mirrors.
The safest place to install any financial or identity-bearing app is the publisher's official website or the operating system's verified store listing. Use this guide to verify that what you tap install on is genuinely the Fantafeat app and not a copycat.
Open fantafeatapp.com in your browser and look for an App or Download link in the navigation. The official site should match the brand spelling exactly.
If downloading for Android, open the Google Play listing. For iOS, open the Apple App Store listing. Verify the publisher name, last updated date, install size and review count match the brand.
A fantasy cricket app needs network access, storage for cached match data and notification access for live scoring. It does not need SMS, contacts or location access. Reject any app that asks for them.
Telegram channels, shortened links, and modded APKs are not endorsed. They frequently carry old builds, modified scoring, or hidden background services.

A typical fantasy cricket app installs in the 40–80 MB range. Anything above 200 MB should be reviewed — an oversized build can indicate embedded assets that do not belong in the official app.
A maintained app receives updates every 2–6 weeks. An app that has not been updated in 6+ months should be treated as suspicious until proven otherwise.
Six checks that catch almost every counterfeit or out-of-date build before it lands on your device.
"Fantafeat" should appear in the publisher line exactly. "Fantafeats", "Fantafeat Pro" or "Fantafeat India" without the brand confirming the alternate handle is a red flag.
An app that has not been updated in half a year is either abandoned or has been left up while the operator moved to a new build.
40–80 MB is typical. Above 200 MB or below 10 MB deserves a closer look.
Network, storage, notifications. Reject apps asking for SMS, contacts, microphone or location.
Look for reviews that mention contests, KYC, withdrawals and captain choice. Generic five-star reviews are a soft signal that the listing has been padded.
Cross-reference the official Fantafeat website's app link. If the official site links to a different listing than the one you opened, treat that as a contradiction.

Counterfeit apps usually live on Telegram channels, social-media bio links, or third-party APK mirrors. They frequently use a similar logo and a one-letter domain variation. Three tells to look for:
Permissions that don't fit. A cricket fantasy app asking for SMS access or device admin privileges is almost certainly a credential-harvesting build.
Aggressive pop-ups. Real apps do not interrupt the home screen with referral spam or "claim your free iPhone" overlays.
Modified scoring. If a contest pays out disproportionately generously, the scoring math may have been tweaked in the APK. Always cross-check final scores against the official app.
Short, plain-language answers to the questions that show up most often on this topic.
Use the official Fantafeat website or the verified Google Play / Apple App Store listing. Avoid third-party APK mirrors, Telegram channels and shortened links.
If a current iOS listing exists in the Apple App Store, it will be linked from the official website. Verify the publisher name matches exactly before installing.
Some operators publish direct APK downloads from their website for regions where the Play Store is restricted. Use only the link from the official site, never an APK shared on a social platform.
If you cannot find a verified listing, do not install from a mirror. Wait until the operator publishes an official listing or contact customer care for guidance.
