About ArduinoPixel APK
Table Of Contents
Description
Control your NeoPixel LED strip from your phone or tablet.Change the color of the strip, turn it on and off, all from the convenience of your Android device.
Getting started is really easy:
* Take hold of an Arduino board with an Ethernet or WiFi connection and a NeoPixel LED strip.
* Upload the provided code on your Arduino board (read the comments for instructions). Use this link, https://github.com/nlamprian/ArduinoPixel/tree/master/arduino_code, to access the code. (Do not use the "Get Server Code" button in the app, the link it leads to is not up to date)
* Connect the Arduino to your local network.
* Install the app, go to settings and specify the network parameters for your Arduino web server. If you see the "Hello from Arduino Server" message, then you know the setup is correct.
* That's it! Enjoy.
The code has been tested on Arduino Uno, Leonardo, and Mega. There is also experimental support for ESP32.

Update:
I developed ArduinoPixel for personal use, but I decided to officially publish it. The app offers only those features I initially needed, realizing though that NeoPixels can do much more interesting things than simply light up. By now, enough people have used the app and responded with some positive feedback and ideas that I wanted to do something about it. So, I'll keep working on the app. If you have any requests or features you'd like to see implemented, please send me an email and tell me about them. I'll make sure to take your input into consideration.
Some ideas I have in mind about the project/app:
* Develop a web interface to allow the use from a web browser
* Provide turn on/off times for the strip in order to operate autonomously
* Allow the use of multiple strips

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.
