Check the source first
Every legitimate tool has an official home that hosts its own file. If you cannot find who publishes a tool, that is disqualifying on its own. This site, for example, is the official home of the v98 build.
Match size and version
The published size and version should match the file you download. A 31.5 MB v98 file is this tool; wildly different numbers mean a different file, possibly a repack.
Read the permissions
Permissions should map to features. Dashboard and account tools need network and storage, not your contacts or SMS history. The permissions guide is a worked example.
Red flags that end the discussion
Payment demands, root requirements, and missing publisher identity each disqualify a tool immediately. No feature list outweighs those. The safety breakdown and the Advance Server comparison give you the full evaluation framework.
