Questions & Answers
Q: What is an APK File?
A: Just like Windows (PC) systems use an .exe file for installing software, Android does the same. An APK file is the file format used for installing software on the Android operating system.
Q: If I install an APK from this website, will I be able to update the app from the Play Store?
A: Yes, absolutely. The Play Store installs APKs it downloads from Google's servers, and sideloading from a site like ApkClean.net goes through a very similar process, except you're the one performing the downloading and initiating the installation (sideloading).
As soon as the Play Store finds a version of the app newer than the one you've sideloaded, it will commence an update.
Q: Why ApkClean.net can guarantee APK 100% safe?
A: Whenever someone wants to download an APK file from ApkClean.net, we'll check the corresponding APK file on Google Play and allow user download it directly (of course, we'll cache it on our server). If the APK file does not exist on Google Play, we'll search it in our cache.
Q: What are Android App permissions?
A: Apps require access to certain systems within your device. When you install an application, you are notified of all of the permissions required to run that application.
Don't hesitate to contact us if you have any questions or concerns.

5 ★This game is what Minecraft should have been, and will someday surpass it. (if it hasn't already). The game is Huge, as in deep. Instead of 256 tall, you get 64,000 tall... To go to the nether, just dig to it. to go to space, just climb to it:) (or launch a rocket of course). It runs much faster, especially on the phone. You can play on servers with friends, and the interface is still intuitive. On top of that, these servers give you MODS (as in rockets, real waterfalls, better sounds, you get the idea) . You load up the mods when you join the server, no work for you at all. The community is growing, kind, and welcoming. It is old and young and very mixed in terms of game styles and game play, from creative, to skywars, to vanilla survival. Can't recommend enough, and yes> at this pace of growth and development, it really will smash Minecraft.
2 ★Okay, first of all, in a singleplayer world, I have to give myself "Flight privlege" and there is no list or anything telling me how. Second, the texture is awful. Just use the one from actual minecraft, it's so much better. Third, for people who play on survival anyways, it would be nice to be able to jump and place blocks at the same time. I've seen some mean sounding reviews here, so I'm doing my best to be polite.
5 ★I absolutely love this game. Coming from Minecraft, this is a completely different experience. Having to completely relearn how to take advantage of world generation patterns is really cool. Minecraft generates worlds in different ways and Minetest seems to do it better and more realistically in my opinion. Plus the fact that this version is basically a direct port of the PC version is super cool because my modpacks still work. Just wish the shaders worked on mobile and the UI was updated
4 ★I like it because you can build and play online with friends. However, the only thing I don't like is the really bad lag. Unless you use a phone, laptop, or PC, I wouldn't recommend server playing. Also, I can't launch a server for others to play on. The biggest thing is the lag, though.
4 ★Best alternative to Minecraft out there! Blueberries, copper, tin, mese, cotton, and more that even Minecraft doesn't have!!! Also more realistic than Minecraft, as there are no monsters, red mushrooms are poisonous, and diamonds are much rarer. Only problem is, you can't split stacks of items. There is a way around this, however: put each item into a chest immediately after collecting it. Then you will have smaller stacks/single items to craft with!
4 ★Fantastic concept for a miner game, with free mods galore at a literal tap of a button. However, the actual game itself is clunky on mobile devices, making movement and block manipulation a huge chore. My only suggestion would be to make these easier to control, perhaps by utilizing a virtual joystick and 2 buttons (for breaking and placing) otherwise, great game.
5 ★Pretty good I've played it onPC, and it is truly cross platform, which means no matter which device your playing on PC or phone you connect, and mods are compatible across devices to and also if someone has a mod you don't need it installed for you to see it working on a freinds world it will automatically work., out of all the MC alternatives I tried this is the one I have stuck the most., resolution on mobile glitched out
4 ★AWESOME!!!!!!! I am paneg ingame and have tried tons of servers, most creative fun different servers, and singleplayer is great too, with minetest mods i have tried all sorts of things for my minetest server Panegs Survival Server (Silver Lands). There is no limit, but I do think that the controls are a little dificult, and yes, i did change it to the round thing which helped a lot, and 1 other thing is why on certain servers, like lily in the vally, do i keep timing out as soon as i log in? thx!
1 ★This game is great on PC, but the mobile version doesn't allow you to type in the game menu - you type, click done, and the text disappears. This happened to two friends as well. As a result, you cannot log on to a server, defeating the whole purpose of the app. Would love for it to work, please fix!
5 ★CONS * Not nearly as polished as MC * Not as much support/community as MC PROS * open source * Easily moddable * Mobile and pc can play on THE SAME SERVER * Runs faster than MC * FREE (as in FREEDOM) * Online play is way easier/simpler. Modpacks can be created easily and automatically download/install, which means you don't need special launchers or clunky interfaces that take forever to load. Overall, great game. Highly recommend.
1 ★i WAS having a great time playing this game, witch it was only good running it twice, after that, the gui was multiplied evory were, accept the bottem left cornner, were it was probably glitching so much that it showed all code from all scripts, and when i enter a game, i saw nothing bit the sun and sky, and in 3rd person view, it was like only sky and sun, no player. and i tried 2 fix it in the settings, and then exit and enterd the app, it was like nothing happend. it waz same reinnstalling IT
2 ★Vanilla Minetest on PC is pretty bare bones but it's awesome when you mod it, I've been playing it recently and love it, it feels very different to Minecraft, it feels like I'm experiencing Minecraft for the first time again. But this port to Android is not so good. The UI isn't designed well, controls are uncomfortable and unresponsive, and you can't load most mods without crashing the game.
