The Loops APK distributed via loopsusercontent.com are safe!
I've seen a few reports about it being flagged as malware, and it's a false positive.
You can see for yourself on VirusTotal!

Don't worry though, the source code will be published, and the app will be available on the Play Store/App Store + F-Droid.
The sideloadable APKs are only temporary!
@dansup loopsusercontent.com (APK link) is dead.
