About One Tap Tethering APK
Table Of Contents
Description
=== Description ===This app includes a widget that can toggle on/off both WiFi Hotspot and Bluetooth tethering by a single tap.
I created this widget to help the users of GPS navigators (e.g. TomTom) to connect to live traffic updates through tethering via mobile phones.
=== Without this app ===
Normally, to use the live traffic in the GPS, one needs to go through the following steps on a phone:
1. Turn on Bluetooth
2. Turn on Portable Wi-Fi hotspot by "Settings" > "Connections" > "More networks" > "Tethering and portable hotspot" (pre 4.3 version was "System setting" > "More settings" > "Tethering and portable hotspot")
3. Turn on Bluetooth tethering
To stop, one needs to do the reverse of the above three steps to turn off WiFi hotspot and Bluetooth.
=== How this app works ===
Using this app, all is done in one tap.
After installing this app, close the app then add the widget to your home screen. From your home screen, you can tap to enable/disable tethering.
=== Troubleshooting ===
If both WiFi and Bluetooth is on but GPS is not connected to the phone, check the following:
1. Slide down from the top, tap on "Tethering or hot spot active", then tick "Bluetooth Tethering".
2. Some GPS only tries to connect to the phone in the first 5 minutes after turning on. Turn the GPS off (or sleep) then turn it back on to search for the phone.
3. Just in case you haven't done this, you need to pair your phone with your GPS.
=== Enjoy ===

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.
