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

4 ★Useful as an overlay for Tracklia navigation app which lacks a compass. It is a little difficult to read north and south in full sunlight.

3 ★Great idea, but the compass on screen is very small and has neither degree markings nor transparency, so it's not much good for taking a bearing. Also, no info on what personal data is collected, shared, or how to opt out of this.

1 ★Wrong direction showing

5 ★I was searching for such app. It overlays over Uber maps for identifying expected direction uber vehicle at a unfamiliar place / city.

1 ★Great idea and exactly what I was looking for. Too bad it doesn't work.

1 ★Overlay is cool, but compass it's faulty

4 ★Excellent app. The overlay feature that enables the compass to remain functional and visible while within other apps makes this compass a must have. My only request is that the app offer a simple Bearing (0-359) view in addition to the compass view.

3 ★Works but not in the car...just like a regular compass. The instrumentation in the vehicle messes with the direction. I place my phone in my mount and the compass doesn't move. Pull it away from the dash it moves.

5 ★Brilliant. A must have for me.
