About Skip HTC Locations APK
Table Of Contents
Description
This App lets you bypass "HTC Locations" and select a map application of your choice when you want to display a location out of your contacts or calendar.It is currently not the intention of this App to change the behaviour of the car dock mode.
Some HTC phones have "HTC Locations" installed and force you to use it prior to Google Maps or other maps.
So this App is relevant only for such phones having the Locations App pre-installed. On other devices it just doesn’t do anything.
Devices: One X, One S, Sensation, Desire HD/Z/S
The App cannot be started manually. It is just registered to intercept the start of "HTC Locations" under certain conditions.
It does not consume battery or resources.
Operation:
On first use (open a location in contacts or calendar) you are prompted to select either Location Picker or this App.
If you check the checkbox for “use by default” you will not be prompted again for this selection.
You can directly select between Google Maps or other installed map applications instead.
To undo the default selection, go to the Application settings of your phone, select this App and press the “Clear defaults” button.

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.
