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.

4 ★Like the fact that I can trigger scenes to turn on, but hoping for functionality to then be able to quickly turn off all the items included in that scene (like the much more Android-device-finicky "Insteon for Hub" does.) I can make an "ON" and an "OFF' version of the settings for each scene as a workaround, but if the sloppy developers who made the official "I.f.H" app can manage to toggle the scene both ways, you guys can do it I'm sure. Cheering you on guys! Thanks for picking up the ball they dropped.
3 ★I like the layout and there is no delay waiting for status in the app. One nice enhancement would be to get the dual band outlets working so we can control both top and bottom outlet on Android. The Insteon app is missing this functionality as well. Keep up the good work and keep the enhancements coming.
2 ★Nothing for a newbie, I am more in the dark with this app than the insteon app. It didn't recognize my insteon door sensor. And it won't even download on my galaxy s5 running 5.0
3 ★I'm an Android developer as well as Insteon Dev. I love the way this is heading! I would recommend a few things to make this the only Hub Remote but I plan to send a comprehensive email to you later.
4 ★I will be so happy when you add new types of devices to manage. Like camera and sensors. Thanks for not crashing. This is much faster than other apps also.
4 ★I'd give 5 stars if the device list contained a folder for each room. That would make it quicker/easier to pick the device that I want.
5 ★Einstein would agree.. Insteon is a crappy software developer. Thanks HomeBoy
4 ★Great job so far! I would love to see widgets added. Also the ability to toggle lights on and off with a single tap. I'm going to start using this as my daily driver with the hope development continues!
4 ★Much faster and easier to use than the native Insteon app for Android. I think widgets would make this app incredibly better. I'm relatively new to Insteon and have yet to find a way to quickly control Insteon products from my home screen like I can for all my other home automation eco-systems...
2 ★My X10 devices do not appear, but do with native Insteon app. Answer to Homeboy response. 2245-222 DOES support X10.
5 ★Actually works, compared to the official insteon app, enough to get a 5 in my book
4 ★Nice clean interface. What I'd really love (and what nobody else appears to be doing) is if this app had a widget that let me control scenes from my phone's home screen without having to launch into the app completely.
