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 ★It is a great backup and supplement to my boat's chart plotter when in water that I am unfamiliar with. I also use it to help me plan future coastal boating trips. I still prefer to use my boats chart plotter while underway as this app doesn't work without cell coverage, but it is still a great resource to have!
4 ★good app. wish there was a paid ad free version. also wish you could download the charts so they don't have to load everytime. the app really should work offline, as many places we navigate have little to no cell service. other than that it's solid. charts change as you move in and out, cool overlays and plenty of features.
3 ★This app shows water depths mostly for large bodies of water. None of the inland lakes that I visit show water depths and these lakes are not small. Instead, it is just like looking at google maps. If I wanted to do that, then I would have used google maps! That is too bad because this app seemed good. It doesn't ask for too many permissions. But when I want to see a chart for a body of water, then I better be on a major water way.
5 ★Like the different chart options. The weather radar overlay is nice as well. Haven't tried it yet for navigation, but so far so good.
4 ★Great app. Used it to sail the Connecticut River and now the east coast along with Navionics. Find it to be reliable and works well.
5 ★I use professional and high end expensive equipment at work and compared to it this app is great! I work on boats and navigate on a daily basis and I highly recommend this app to any boater whether you're a weekend boater or a regular on the water. This system is very good to have and could save your life and save you a ton of money!
4 ★This is a really good app. I use it to plan sailing trips and the routing feature is very helpful.
4 ★Great tool when you think your a little off course helps with charts and other navigation aids
5 ★Dont pick another app for charting at home. This is hands down the best charting/navigation app for personal ease of use. Being in the maritime industry it's nothing compared to commercial use of course but for home and fishing and rough charting at work you cant beat this app! 5 starts, high five, good star and everything else!!! I may even put some stickers on my toys!
4 ★Excellent way to know where you are on the water and the approximate depth.
5 ★I used this to help me navigate an area new to me. It worked great as an aid as I relied heavily on visual observations too.
4 ★Very accurate GPS overlay. When a depth guage failed, the app allowed me to safely naigate a shallow & narrow channel. After feedback with creator, I learned it will soon deserve a 5th star with the ability to store waypoints and charts allowing you to navigate without constant cell phone service.
