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.

User's Reivew

1 ★Ring registered but cannot verify because app says invalid username or password. Even after password reset. Just use the built in smart lock, this app is crap.

4 ★Locks and unlocks pretty well! Has some trouble recognizing the ring on about 1/40 uses. Should be able to set vibration on all the time, the little chime is annoying. Also had trouble with the timers, had them all deactivated, unfortunately.

2 ★The app is a good idea but it has several major flaws: breaks often, is incompatible with android native security, and has less customization not to mention it's Myriad of security flaws. It's potentially usable if you want to prevent your a child from getting in but don't expect it to stop anyone with even a passing knowledge of android, restarting will give a 30 second window of before the app boots, and it can't be Uninstalled after being installed, this app is very high risk low reward.

1 ★App doesn't work very well. Sometimes Doesn't allow ring to unlock phone when phone ringing. Facebook chat still works at lock screen. Notifications screen still works.

1 ★Never recognizes your account info so it never actually works. There is a feedback button in the main app but it doesn't do anything. No answers on the forums. I'll revise if this app ever does anything. UPDATE: The support button didn't work and my forum post was deleted by the administrator (it was professional and not the least bit inappropriate). I might try the app again but at launch the product was unusable because without this app my phone pops things up every time it reads the ring.

1 ★It installs, it configures and if I'm lucky, the ugly lock screen will unlock and hopefully without crashing. Lock Screen Widgets crash every time, so can only use a static image (what year is it?) and the only included alternatives are limited to a pin code or your full online account password and no Knock or Pattern Lock 😴 / Device: OnePlus One (64Gb)

2 ★I love my NFC ring, but there are so many previously reviewed problems with this App to be relied upon. Native Android M security settings basically need to be turned off to just use the ring to unlock the device. Meaning you need to basically disable a pin, password, or any other built in login method in Android first. Then set up your ring as your login means. As stated before, if the phone is restarted, the OS boots core functionality first, then 3rd party applications like NFC ring unlock. Dangerous.

4 ★I always had trouble with this app and stuck to the developer's paid app. The latest update makes it easy to use with all my bugs squashed.

3 ★There are some issues that need to be fixed. But it works.

2 ★Having registered my email and password on the control app this app asked for them but says they are invalid. Very frustrating as this app would be brilliant

1 ★Does not work properly, registers ring then says invalid key, also I can't for all that is sacred log in to verify even though I have an account, sorry but it's no good

1 ★If you need to install this on a new phone, you're going to have a bad time. Stick to third party apps. Also with the new version it seems you're also unable to reset your password. Yay for DRM on a unlocking app?
