Description

This is not the ZCard app! The actual app is available here:
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.appsropos.zcard



This is just a workaround app for a bug in Android 4.1 (alias Jelly Bean) and Android 4.4 (Kit Kat). More information about these bugs is available here: http://code.google.com/p/android/issues/detail?id=34880 and here:
https://code.google.com/p/android/issues/detail?id=66905.

Samsung Galaxy S4 users: at present you'll need this app too, see http://developer.samsung.com/forum/board/thread/view.do?boardName=GeneralB&messageId=232748

The bug removes accounts created by paid apps when the device is restarted. To work around the issue, this app provides an account of the same type as ZCard. This is enough to convince Android to keep ZCard accounts on reboot. That is all this app does.

Important: Please open the app at least once from within Google Play to "enable" the workaround. It may not work properly otherwise. On some devices you'll have to install this app before you install ZCard.

Please note that this is a Samsung / Android 4.1 issue, and not a bug in ZCard itself.
If your device is not a Samsung Galaxy S4 or running Android 4.1 (JellyBean), you don't need this app.

Kudos to Marten Gajda for providing the reference implementation for this app!

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.
