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

1 ★Really slow on android 10
4 ★Explain xkcd seems to have stopped working. Other than that: five stars
5 ★Unless I'm confusen, this is by far the best way to access xkcd.
5 ★He started these comics in high-school; they get better... MUCH better as he matures...
1 ★Sneaky app. It installs another app called What If without your permission.
5 ★xkcd is delightful.
4 ★I love this app because it lets you download all the xkcds! I'd give it 5 stars, but saving comic image seems not to work and downloading all what-ifs crashes the app. I am using Xiaomi Redmi 2 Miui 8, Android 4.4.4 Kitkat. Ps: love the update message (I can identify with that)
4 ★Love this app, but I'm having some trouble with downloading all "What-if?" articles due to a 301 error. Other than that, it's simple and quick to use, definitely my favorite client by far.
5 ★This is by far my favourite XKCD app out there. Great UI, favourite comics, option to immediately download comic image, integrated What-if, explainXKCD and external links that Randall includes every once in a while. I usually forget to write reviews for apps, but after getting 405 errors on every page I contacted the Dev. I got a very quick reply explaining the situation and one play store update later everything was working as smoothly as before.
4 ★Great app that rarely crashes, and can save comics to view offline. I do have an issue though, when I try to download all the comics it gives me error 302. Unless it doesn't have the new URL it should be able to continue. A fix would be nice.
4 ★The download all button doesn't work. It downloads 8 or so before crashing. This problem has persisted through 2 phones. Otherwise great app.
4 ★This app is the best xkcd viewer I've found, but downloading all "What If" articles fails halfway with a 302. The app should either resolve the 302's and download the correct article, or skip them.
