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.

User's Reivew

4 ★But, the constant notification is very annoying so I had to block it.
1 ★Was a great app, but some features no longer work, and the developer has disappeared. I've been unable to get any support at all for the paid version.
4 ★It's really good & useful. The only thing missing from this app is the ability to group app shortcuts into folders within the sidebar. Add that ability & I'll give you a 5 star rating....keep up the good work, devs.
5 ★Unbelievable,it really is, gonna take patience, this thing Is configurable beyond imagine. If I had rooted phone I may not even bother with it because it would be too much. Will discover stability over next several days and get back to ya! Unbelievable!!!"!!
5 ★So far it seems great. There's a bit of a learning curve involved with so many options but if you are prepared to experiment a bit you will probably get it working to suit your needs.
3 ★Nice, nice. Very innovative stuff. But it's a little derpy when it comes to adjusting it in the settings. Also it should save the changes you make to the length and sensitivity (it seems to reset the next time it's launched)...
4 ★How do you turn off the notification icon at the top-left of the screen? Edit: On the HTC One M8, with 5.0 Lolly, go to Sounds & Notifications - App Notifications - Block Apps - Select SlideControl.
5 ★If you suddenly need to use another application while you are in the midst of using another, this app will allow you switch without pushing any physical buttons. Has many customization options and extremely useful, at least for me.
5 ★I've been using another quick launcher for years and then I discovered this app. I think I'm sticking with this one.
5 ★An absolutely fantastic ad on. Finally a way to use gestures to launch apps without hitting the home button. Easy to use and amazingly versatile.
4 ★Good app works as advertised, a little trouble setting it up for the first time. But not blaming the developer very well could be me?
5 ★I try all of these sidebar apps and this is the latest one I've tried. I can see this one being so much more useful! It has already helped me catch a couple songs fast from the TV with the shortcuts... I use Shazam or soundhound! I was able to hurry unlock the phone and boom hit one button and it caught it! I just started using it, personalized it and so far so good! It is a really Nice app! I really like it so far!
