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.

5 ★Great App for beginners who think they can't run. You really can slow and steady
5 ★excellent easy to use and actually worked for me from a non existing runner to running 5k 3 times a week
4 ★Highly recommended Crashed sometimes and run would reset sometimes but the program is extremely well done
5 ★I didn't think I would be able to do this but here I am at the end of week 2! I feel I am achieving something in every run yet it is manageable. I am really enjoying it and can't wait to get out running. I think I have caught the running bug!

5 ★Really well-structured programme and easy-to-use app. Thanks!

Thank you Jo W for the commentary !
