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.

User's Reivew

3 ★I used to love this app till the June 2019 update! The new map view is awful and I'll be continuing to use the old version. Sad, as other than that it's excellent
2 ★It seems that very recently the look of the Maps & god knows what else has been changed. If it had remained as it was, it would have scored 5 How can I revert it back to how it was?
4 ★Overall this has been a good and stable app until the last two updates. Blank screen or if not blank freezes, even after uninstall and reinstall. Please fix.
1 ★Very poor map quality and just shows how many strikes in any particular area rather than individual locations of contact. Please listen to your comments and revert back to how it used to be, NOT BROKEN
5 ★🌩️👍🌩️I've tested almost all the Lightning tracker apps and this one is the best, Thanks to a lot of customization and notifications. Hope there will be more. App is free and no ads. 1 thing would be nice : showing stations. Shame it's leaving the playstore due to some entitled and uneducated subhumans 😔.
2 ★I can get real time lightening maps online, this thing loads every 60 seconds which seems a bit rubbish when I can just go online and see real time on blitzortung. shame the app isn't as good as the website
1 ★Was a great app until the last update. now it doesn't seem to work properly if at all. keep getting error messages and don't show the storm I was watching
5 ★Hey there. On your site it says that you're retired from Google Play, but as I can see you still answer the questions, and there's no dates as to when. BTW if you're still leaving...you can ignore the feedback here but don't leave us without updates please :) I would have missed a couple of thunderstorms passing by if I didn't have your app with alerts set up...
4 ★Its Pretty Good... and would be better if one could get the "strikes Per" on the left side of the display to disappear, as it somewhat obsucates the map...
3 ★UPDATE: This app is very slow to update. Sat in the middle of a very local lightning and thunderstorm. This app can't even see it.
3 ★Satellite map gone :( This isn't navigation app, what is the reason to observe all these roads and streets ... and it's loading so slow now
5 ★this app is a very good implementation of the web site. The ability to add alarms for a radius is very nice as well.
