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 ★Amazing app, but as it's supposed to be a Car launcher, could you in the future incorporate the feature of adding car logo's? at the moment it is looking a little like just an android launcher. we need our Peugeot logo or Ford logo or whatever logo somewhere on the screen... Thank you ... super smooth launcher 👍
5 ★I use this in my Miata and on my Scooter. I added a magnetic mount and can access the info from my dash or handlebars. The music player lets me access my player of choice or Pandora / I heart, etc. Money well spent.
5 ★great app. ive been using this for several years now. only issue i have has started recently...the speedometer stopped working. not a huge deal as i can look at my vehicle's speedometer.....force of habit i suppose. thanks.
3 ★Good app but only 30 day trial which is of course towards the bottom of the details. was 3cweeks into using it before I realized this. My fault? ok. shady technique to get you hooked on it? maybe. worth 3.99 USD. I don't think so.
5 ★I've been using this app daily for over two years. It's a smart app, and turns my phone into a useful part of my car. There are lots of settings, so if something is not quite right, you can probably change it.
5 ★Love the speedometer in this app and that you can use multiple features at the the same time.
4 ★One of the cleanest looking UI for car head unit. IMO, need to add more auto-launch option such as start when WiFi connected, or when power connected, etc. Need to have big clock display in middle area. Great work dev.
4 ★Been using the Pro version of this app for ages and love it. Far better than android auto. Only issue is since my oreo upgrade it no longer auto unlocks when docked in my car. Probably an android feature that snuck in somewhere and needs reauthorising. 🙄
5 ★Really good app, love the customobility and ease of use - defo recommend 🙌 Just one query.... If I get a android head unit for my car will this still work to make calls text?
5 ★Updating my last rating. There is a separate app to restore ones purchase of this app. Completely customizable and fully functional. No issues thus far on 2 separate cellphones.
2 ★Seems good, but would be good to add more widgets eg clock and have less links. More analogue would be great eg compass and clock. Sadly my search continues.
4 ★Great app. It has style, plenty of features, and it looks great. A side from the audio buttons occasionally freezing and not responding I love this app!
