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.

5 ★Clean and tidy. It needs a feature to make it easier to share comics and pictures when you're not wanting to send the whole link (press and hold to save doesn't seem to work) but otherwise it's a great app. Also, the people at Substack are making an effort to be a decent company that promotes freedom without allowing the rampant chaos of some services that get.... hectic. I get most of my news from here now. 👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽
2 ★I downloaded this app primarily to listen to a specific podcast unavailable on other services. Podcast function is garbage. Everytime I open a podcast to look at the show notes, when I go back to the list it says I've listed to 90% of the podcast even without listening. Even when I do listen, it "resets" to a random timestamp and I have to find my place again. Reading the details of anything in the feed bumps me back to the top of the list when I exit, making it an extremely frustrating.
2 ★1. Tried to listen to a podcast and turned off the screen. Tried to get back to a REALLY laggy and buggy phone with a podcast I couldnt shut up. After 3 minutes of nonstop lag that would not even show my lockscreen properly I had to restart the phone. Not good. 2. Where is the writer part of the app? Is there even one? No other complaints. Hope it stays that way.
3 ★Love most of the functionality and happy you finally made it to Android. Have an issue with the "archive" feature. That function seems intended to mirror the "saved" section on desktop site. Neither section appears as an option on the other platform and the two don't match / sync. I now have 2 separate lists called 2 separate things on 2 separate platforms. Either allow editing of archive, add saved to the app or better suggestion..both.
5 ★Best app to date. It can read the article's text to you while you are in the shower, eating breakfast, or driving the car, allowing you to multitask. Or, you can just read, if you prefer. Great articles by very informed and professional writers abound. No bias here. If you are not here, you are nowhere. Excellent and flexible tool.
5 ★the app is easy to navigate, fun to use and perfectly formatted. it's more informal unlike the other blogging/writing websites, which is especially good because of the added email newsletters and chats. I find it even better that it is both on the browser and the app, such that I can write from my phone practically everywhere. highly recommend...(pun intended.)
4 ★The current version works while the old one didn't. I've just played around a little so far. The one negative I noticed is that chat is available on iOS but not on Android yet. __________ Old review: Even after uninstalling and reinstalling, clearing the cache, etc, all I get are error messages. "There was an error loading your inbox. Retry?" Clicking OK did nothing. Same with other functions. My library doesn't load. Latest button doesn't do anything. Total fail for me, so I'm uninstalling.
3 ★SLOW & UNRELIABLE! When it works, the app makes it easy to keep up with the writers I follow, and it is much more enjoyable than wading through my overcrowded Gmail inbox. But all too often, the app is maddeningly slow to update my Substack inbox. Worse yet, it fails to list articles I have not read and then tells me I'm all caught up! Substack is promising, but needs tuning. MUST FIX: 1) Speed up servers and networks. 2) Cache article headers. 3) Error trap server timeouts in client-side apps!
2 ★I was hoping this app would be a "Reader" with functions to make *reading* easier. Would be nice to be able to adjust text "size" or "zoom" photos in subs. And, I have a "connectivity" issue if I leave the app open or take "too long" to read or take "too long" to type a comment on paid subs, I get "there was an error loading comments" and the "little red circling" buffering thing. It's much easier to read the subs in my browser.
2 ★The app has no configuration options. On a restricted data plan? Too bad...the app will preload every pic and video. Old review: I hate emails! Creating a Substack account and getting a few subscriptions has destroyed my inbox! Hundreds of useless notification emails. That must be unsubscribed individually one by one. I don't have time to micromanage like this. MAKE NO EMAIL NOTIFICATIONS BE THE DEFAULT. The crazy few people who like them can enable manually. Otherwise a great app and platform.
2 ★Substack is a good app but has issues that need to be addressed. The videos freeze constantly which is very frustrating when you have paid for content and it's an hour long video. I wish the audio could be played from the video with the screen on, or allow the audio to be extracted or played alone without necessarily seeing the video for talks and such where the visual isn't important.
3 ★This is a young service and app and it shows. As an RSS reader there are a lot of things it can't do but the two deal breakers for me were that webcomics just didn't work with no workaround and notifications for new articles never came. I think the service will improve and if you subscribe to a few Substacks I'll bet it's adequate but as a Feedly replacement it just isn't there yet.
