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.

1 ★It doesn't work on 4G, I have to go into my settings and manually turn off my 4G and turn on 3G to watch it if I'm away from Wifi. Half the time the Wifi doesn't work. Very poorly made app. I would suggest this app to anybody.
1 ★This system is a joke, although I am not laughing. The mobile app never works, either on WiFi or 4g. Been trying for over an hour to view my cameras. Uninstalled and reinstalled the app. Still nothing. Spent over $500 on a sixteen channel DVR for this? The system program itself looks like it was developed by some middle school students, and we are not talking about those on the honor roll.
3 ★This will not work on atat network. Had to switch cell phone provider. The cables that come with kit are to thin have to buy other cables to get clear picture. But after all that it works pretty good and is very easy to use
1 ★I am able to connect wifi only through ipad but get a "failed" message everytime I try using my Android phone! If you are looking to be able to view your cameras anywhere at anytime, dont buy this camera system.
1 ★This is the first time I've ever felt the need to write an app review. I have a Note 5. Never let me remote view. Not even once. One of the top reasons I bought this device. Device works and records as it should but as far as this app... complete garbage. I wish I could scream from the rooftop and let everyone know that if this is the reason they are considering purchasing this device that they should save their money. Taking mine back and will not recommend to anyone. Update this app!!!
1 ★Compared to a much older remote DVR app like NightOwl's, this app is a disaster. The feeds, using the same infrastructure as we used with the Nightowl, are much slower and very hit-or-miss. You'll have to call First Alert to discover that their whole SmartBridge system has crippling limitations like a maximum of 2 (for 16 port systems) or 3 (for 8 port systems) viewers! Trying to cleanly exit their app at best takes more than a minute of waiting, during which you can't answer or make calls, if it doesn't hang the phone itself, requiring a hard restart.
1 ★Does not work consistently. Freezes on black screen. Needs serious help please and needs to work on 4G networks. Until then...useless.
1 ★It worked good in the beginning, but now the cameras always fail or wont connect. If they fix the problem I may increase my rating to a 3 or 4 possibly a 5 just for working properly and being a free app.
1 ★Should of bought a better system. It will not connect from android and always showed failed! Terrible
1 ★Why would they not update this app? They want you to spend $600 on a camera system but the only app out there seems like it was created by an amateur. It connects one day and then will not connect for a week. Smart Bridge please fix this
1 ★Pathetic. Most of the time, it fails to connect. Whoever wrote this app., walks backwards with his eyes shut. I will not buy another First Alert product.
1 ★Only works when I'm at home, which basically defeats the purpose. No update since getting it 2 years ago which is disappointing.
