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.

User's Reivew
5 ★While I still consider Aviate to be the hands-down best of breed for launchers, this one has really blown up my skirt through sheer innovation. I'm an instant fan and encourage all to try it. Why doesn't it top Aviate? No categorized/tabbed drawer option. For sheer speed and intuitive use though, this gem is unreal. From Nokia!? Mind = blown.
5 ★I like this a lot. I'm not really a big app user. Probably only a half a dozen apps really get much use, but I like that this allows me to have a "left" screen (swipe left) that has a couple of widgets (Weather Underground and Google search) and a "right" screen that is basically a list of all apps. The way it learns what apps and people I use frequently makes the letter writing on the home screen very useful, too.
3 ★the idea is interesting, the interface is light and clean, but i need an option of turning off the feature of usage-based app list on home screen. also, the scribbling is making app access slower for me. smart grouping and nice alphabetical listing as it's made in aviate serves my needs much better.
4 ★Liked the implementation of scribble. These days all the phones look and work almost the same way. This launcher changes that. My suggestion would be to keep home screen blank for scribbling... There's no need for recent apps or contacts to stay there and form a clutter.
4 ★Really neat design, but I'd like you to work on a few things: 1. When the gesture displays the probable items it should be a scroll list , so that the users can see all the possible things. 2. How about some folders? 3. Search option in the app drawer would be a nice idea. 4. It'd be great if you add add the Google search bar on the home screen as a widget near the time widget. All in all , great launcher. Welcome back Nokia. Hope this launcher gets better with the final build.
4 ★Simple, innovative, it just works. I've tried many launchers and preferred highly customizable ones (Apex was old favorite) so I'm surprised I've been super happy with this. Please keep up the great work! A couple suggestions: 1) There's button and swiping for the app list. It's redundant. Keep the button and add a second desktop. 2) 9 and G are poorly recognized, I have to change my handwriting for them. 3) Clock/calendar widget's buggy, can't access calendar sometimes.
4 ★The launcher is simple and nice. It took a little while to get used to it, but now it's my favorite launcher. Just a few changes can make it really nice. Ability to scribble more than one letter at once will be great. It will improve the speed greatly. Other than this, the the analogue clock is not needed. A handy weather widget instead will be great.
5 ★It's an launcher which adopts to the user usage pattern. I need not got to any screen to find my favourite apps. It would most of the time be on my screen or just a gesture of the first letter of the app name will get that app for me on the screen. It's very light. Does consume any ram comparetively to other other so many launcher I have tried....I tried more than 30 launchers on my Nexus 5. Top reason for this launcher 1- light consumes less ram 2- easy access to apps due to adaptive feature 3- unique look feels cool to use it 4- does not prompt me to use the app just cos I installed it.i search for the app I need n I use it. 5-Looks pretty good with good wallpapers and suitable icon pack 6- best way to place widgets
4 ★One of the best launcher i have come across, give it a week and trust me you will be addicted to it. Things i expect it to include :double tap lock, scrolling widget page(only 2 widgets can be included now)
5 ★First I thanks to old team for starting again with a new concept, design & challenges. This is a interesting concept, I am using it in Samsung J7 & its working excellently and truely very very fast response of my mobile. Wow! Thats great. But time & date is showing and weather report is absent. Request you if you can add the weather report with date & time it will be more attractive and support user.
4 ★Hi nokia team its nice to see you in market. This app good and useful. But as i am very old customer with nokia and Lumia would like to give you people some feed back and i think its my duty to tell you so. 1st thing the app is not recognise diffrent between number 0 and alpha o. Second thing along with time area at main screen you people can add stuffs like wether info and some live stuff. Last thing i would like to say at the main screen the recent use app should not be there or it should be optional.
4 ★A great app. Suits me. Since its a beta u cant expext it to be perfect. But still I wish I could add more widgets and use some of the classic Nokia style wallpapers. Also can u guys please introduce options like grid view for apps and other minor stuff
