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 ★After having a iPhone and a windows phone which was easy to set up on a remote app. Found the app for galaxy s6 more frustrating. If people are struggling just email swann but it might take them a few days to get back to you . Or call them they know there stuff .
1 ★Giving it 1 star because it only shows what's currently playing and will not allow to review past recordings. Unless you are constantly looking at it you can't see what occurred prior or what triggered an alarm. It also drains the phone battery very fast
1 ★I spent a couple of hours trying to get this app to work with a Swann DVR400-1200 unit. Would connect but no pictures visible. Emailed the support address mentioned in the help window but never got a response. I saw mention of the IP Cam Viewer application in one of the other reviews and tried that instead - was up and working in less than five minutes. Would much preferred to have stuck with manufacturers app but just couldn't get it to work.
5 ★Got a Swann DVR with two cameras for a good deal. It's nice to be able to check on the house from anywhere and would be handy for anyone that will be away from home for long periods. However, we replaced the cameras with better ones because the package cameras were terrible.
4 ★I've set up so many of their 8 camera systems its second nature to me. If your having issues with this app or your system maybe you should call someone to help
2 ★Pricey and nicely packaged with the promise of 1,2,3, hook up, I was able to see images on monitor but over an hour of fiddling still no success with seeing on phone app. For the price I shouldn't be toying around. I returned and s week later tried competitor Qsee on.a whim. Equally expensive, not as attractively packaged it actually did show on my phone as promised 2 minutes after downloading the app.
2 ★Used to work fine. Not now. Keeps losing connection settings, unlike what is promised on playstore. Why release an update that makes it worse? Glad I'm not a shareholder if that's how swann runs it's business. I've just tried IP camera app and it works, so have deleted the swann app.
3 ★3 of my 6 camera's are ptz and this ap doesn't seem to have support for presets or the auto tour functions which is a big let down for me. Other than that the ap does what its supposed to do with good results on both 3g and wifi.
1 ★For one whole day this app worked with my DVRx 1400 even tho it's not on the compatibility list (the app that's supposed to work with this system doesn't.) However, it's now stopped working, giving me an "invalid user" error. Avoid this company, they don't know how to write, let alone maintain, software.
1 ★AT&T Uverse router upgraded. Prior to swap I used my public IP in the configuration for viewing cameras both on internal network and over the internet. Now I have to use SwannView Link for Internet view. Swann tech support is pretty useless and suggestef using 2 apps to resolve. I switched to Robert Chou's IP Camera app, and this app solved the problem. My advice to Swann; you guys need to be on top of the diff technologies otherwise when the time comes, I'll find a company that does!
1 ★My phone cant even install this thing. Cameras are great on the tv, but we got these so we could see what was going on when not home. Make this work and 5 stars all the way.
1 ★Not much else to say. I wasted hours of my life and it just plain won't work. It says its connected to server and playing video but nothing displays
