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.

1 ★Audio comes through but no video.
5 ★Class!
2 ★Videos flicker green after last update.
5 ★When I got my Durovis Opendive, the first thing I looked for after trying the Cardboard demos was a way to watch some 3D video. This app was just what I was looking for. I especially like that the app is set up to use intents, so you can use it to view videos linked from web pages, for example.
3 ★For some reason only those videos with "yt3d" in the title load. Any other 3d video doesn't load even if it is in proper 3d format. Also the resolution setting pop up is annoying. Wish to set a default for use all the time (could be a setting in the tutorial view).
3 ★An option to switch left to right would be great
1 ★Hmm. The help screens at the start show how to find the 3D movies, but not how to display them in a way that works with a choice of viewers. Seems to just display in the default of the video which, in the case of the first one that I tried was cross-eyed. No use with my tablet in an adapted OWL viewer :( Or the Google cardboard, come to that... Couldn't find any way to change the settings other than resolution. That's OK with a 2D viewer, but useless with 3D material. Guess what I'll be uninstalling next... Bob Aldridge
4 ★For a demo this is spot on can't wait for the full version
5 ★Great app
3 ★but my review will be about basic features that all VR movie players must have : 1. Support all movie format (avi,mp4,mkv,mov,3gp,etc) 2. Support all subtitle format (srt is the most important) 3. Support 3d Side by Side normal and with Barrel Distortion and can be zommed in and zoomed out and put option to change depth 4. Support Control Using OTG cable (PS3 Controller, Mouse) because not all VR goggles have magnet, and headtracking control like cmoar VR Cinema is annoying (for me personally, i don't care about walking around Cinema or choose seat inside cinema like cmoar VR Cinema, all i want is watch movie with srt subtitle using VR goggles) that's all, and so far there's no VR movie player support all of that 4 basic features
1 ★Why is this here if it serves no purpose?
3 ★Didn't work on Samsung s3. Shame.
