About Save and Open / Bluetooth (save to phone) APK
Table Of Contents
Description
This is a very simple app that will take a shared file (e.g. an image, Word document, e-mail attachment etc) from another app, save it to the "Download" folder in your phone's storage and then open it. There is also the option to send via Bluetooth instead.This app does not have a shortcut icon - you access it from the share menu in your favourite app, from where you want to save and open a file. Two options are shown: "Save and Open" or "Save and Bluetooth".
This app is particularly useful where the share button doesn't list all the apps capable of opening the file. It's also useful if you want to edit or send a file, and want to avoid the effort of having to save it first, then go and find it and open/send it.
The shared file is saved in your Download folder. It is probably called /sdcard/Download or /storage/sdcard0/Download or similar. Where an identical file already exists, a numerical suffix will be added to the file being saved (e.g. "test-1.pdf" rather than "test.pdf").
You will need to grant write permission to the app to save the file.

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.
