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 ★Yes, there is no doubt that this is the best pinyin keyboard, but I still wish you guys can upgrade it soon, and bring the good feature from gboard! The reason I dont want to switch to Gboard is gboard seens not very friendly to Chinese, maybe it just hard to focus on each language typing experiment. Anyway, wish you guys can do better and better.
1 ★Chinese input is pretty bad, often confused with handwriting. Impossible to change the pinyin except using backspace key to delete all characters input.
1 ★I am having some difficulties entering the hyperlink for my Samsung internet. I tapped once to select the hyperlink. However, when I tried to type my new link on the keyboard, it only overwrite the front portion of the hyperlink. This doesnt affect previous version of my Samsung S6 using Google Pin Yin nor when I use the Samsung keyboard on my S10+.
1 ★When using this app to type traditional Chinese, some words do not show up. Words such as 周(zhou), and 里(li). Please fix.
2 ★I use traditional (T) input. I realized that characters that exist in both T and simplified (S) such as 后 is not listed after I input the Pinyin, while the T-specific character 後 can be found. It's super annoying when I can't type characters like 后 and 周 when both exist in T Chinese. These are not S-specific characters, so they should be listed.
1 ★I don't speak any form of Mandarin, and do not need access to any apps that i know nothing about. I do not see the ability to delete the app ANYWHERE, and would like to. This app uses memory, and storage space that could easily be used in a far more productive way. People who don't understand viral marketing are sure to get abused by Google in every way, shape, and form; such is a primary reason google has become satan of the internet.
4 ★It's a really cool app, but it's really bloody annoying when I want to backspace but it just takes away the suggestion bar instead. No other keyboard does this so it's really jarring. I'd love an option to have the buttons for 中 and En separate from the suggestion bar. I mean, I already use the language key to switch between them anyway so having them even there is pretty useless for me honestly.
1 ★It used to be good, but now when I try to type in English, it keeps changing my words around even when I specifically typed an abbrieviation word it changes it to another word like CAT, then Lu to "Luck" as soon as I space. It is super annoying. I am to the point of wanting to uninstall this keyboard.. it used to not be like this. Hate hate hate this auto correct.
3 ★This app is lacking many new features that gboard has, and now only I realised that you can add Pinyin input to gboard as well, making this app redundant... Google should just remove this app and move the users to gboard
1 ★This is anapp that I do not need and cannot seem to get rid of. I understand it would be useful for a lot of people and recognize I am not one of them. It takes my limited bandwidth in constant updates and I have not yet found a way to remove it or at least consistently disble it. For my use it takes up space.
4 ★Simple to use, good enough. However, it would be perfect to me if I can set/change the often used symbols on the left sidebar. For example, I use "、"(A Chinese caesura sign) a lot and it's not on the sidebar. It's kinda annoying to click twice on the board to get one sing.
3 ★It seems the navbar color for this app was not set (or might have been set to white), and it makes the navbar white when and only when the keyboard is showing, while quite literally every other app was in the color I customized them into. And the Chinese word bank really nerds an upgrade. Missing a lot of professional terminologies and recent slang terms. Running One UI on Galaxy S9
