About VK
VK is a social app from developer VKL that brings messaging, feeds and community life together in one place on your phone. It installs under the package name com.vkontakte.android, and the current release is version 8.193, issued on 2026-09-18 as a 217.6 MB download.
What the app is built around Listed in the social category, VK is organised around the routines people share online: staying in touch with contacts, following what friends post, and keeping groups and pages close at hand. Rather than scattering those activities across separate tools, it collects them behind a single interface, so conversations and updates sit side by side and you can move between them without switching apps.
Fitting the app to your phone The build requires Android 9.0 or newer. Devices running that baseline or anything above it are the intended target, and anyone on an older system will need to update first. Because compatibility is defined by that single floor, checking your device's software level before installing saves an avoidable failed attempt.
Storage space to plan for The package occupies 217.6 MB, so it is worth clearing room before you begin. On a device where free space is tight, that footprint competes with photos, music and offline media, and the app will typically grow further as it caches content over time. Treat the listed size as a starting point rather than a ceiling.
Publisher and release details VKL is the developer behind the app, and this listing tracks version 8.193, dated 2026-09-18. The identifier com.vkontakte.android stays consistent across installs, which matters when updating an existing copy rather than starting from scratch. Note that no content rating has been published for this listing, so age-guidance information is not available here.

Frequently Asked Questions
What is the exact package name of this app?
The application identifies itself to Android as com.vkontakte.android. That identifier stays the same across updates, so installing a newer release over an existing copy replaces it in place rather than creating a second app. The publisher listed for this package is VKL, and the app sits in the social category.
Which devices can run this build?
This listing sets a clear software floor: a device must run the baseline stated in the description above, or anything newer. If your phone is older than that baseline, the app will not install, and updating the system software is the remedy. Newer devices that meet or exceed the requirement should have no compatibility obstacle to overcome.
How much free storage should I have ready?
The installer weighs in at 217.6 MB, so make sure roughly that much free space is available before starting. The figure covers the download and the installed files; cached images, video and messages can add to it later as you use the app. On a nearly full device, freeing space first prevents an interrupted installation.
What version and release date does this listing show?
The current release listed here is version 8.193, published on 2026-09-18. It is the most recent build tracked on this page and arrives as a single file of 217.6 MB. If you already have the app installed, this is the build you would be updating to.
Is there a content rating for this app?
The content rating for this listing is unknown, meaning no age classification has been published alongside these details. Anyone deciding whether the app suits a younger user should therefore rely on their own judgement, since the usual age guidance is simply absent from the information provided here.
