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.

User's Reivew
5 ★Works as it should, I've tried playing games using Microsoft RDC but it was terrible and this thing did the job flawlessly.
1 ★Works really well I've been trying many different ways to play games from my PC to my phone and this works perfectly way better than steam link and a few others that I've been trying
5 ★Incredible app for remote play. Works way better than steam link for me.
5 ★Works really well whether via home wifi or via lte.
5 ★Amazing app. Works better than steam link app. Nearly flawless.
4 ★Using touch screen as a trackpad doesn't work, pls fix
5 ★It's da bomb, seriously I use moonlight on my mobile phone, laptop and PC it's changed my gaming for ever
5 ★Better than any other stream solution! Highly recommended!
1 ★It has the functionality. Yes it's MVP - Minimum Viable Product. It also has a lot of configurations available. But it's a terrible experience. Screen flickering, it claims to launch game but never bothers to verify if it did, changes your display resolution on PC but never revert it back after quitting session, does not check connection speed to automatically set bitrate, does not set resolution according to device configuration. You just want your users to "test" this, and report bugs.
5 ★So, it's time to update my review in all fairness. I previously had issues with the app not displaying what was currently displayed on my monitor after going full screen in any given game or app then going windowed or even minimized. Dizzying flickering was another thing app suffered from especially when I used Steam and entered controller configuration. All is PERFECT now after disabling Intel integrated gpu and using hdmi to tv, connecting nvidia gpu to "monitor" & giving admin perms to nvidia
5 ★I have only one monitor. How can I use this awesome app to stream games from my pc to my phone and browse the web on my pc at the same time?
5 ★Best streaming platform for gaming, in my opinion.
