How to install Remote for GPMDP APK on Android phone or tablet?
Download Remote for GPMDP APK file from ApkClean, then follow these steps:
Update Phone Settings
Go to your phone Settings page
Tap Security or Applications (varies with device)
Check the Unknown Sources box
Confirm with OK
Go to Downloads
Open Downloads on your device by going to My Files or Files
Tap the APK file you downloaded (com.marshallofsound.gpmdp.remote-v1.1.2-ApkClean.apk)
Tap Install when prompted, the APK file you downloaded will be installed on your device.
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.

5 ★Great app. The Dev is hand down both a gentleman and a scholar.
1 ★Simply doesn't work. Doesn't seem to realise I have GPM desktop on my desktop.
1 ★Enabled api, restarted both apps, in settings I see my laptop but it doesn't connect
1 ★Developer has lost interest in app. And app uses an outdated target Android API version.
5 ★Needs more work but i have to admit it has great potential.
1 ★garbage doesnt show interface 4 input passkey just crashes. trash
5 ★Would also love volume control. Thank you
4 ★This app is a great add on to the GPMDP! I've been testing Spotify and one feature it has that GPM doesn't is the ability to have all your devices integrated so you can listen seamlessly. This app approaches that function. Only thing I'd like to see added is Chromecast network functions added, similar to those recently being fixed in the main desktop player. This would allow you to change casting functions from your phone even if you're streaming from your desktop. Otherwise, totally cool app!
3 ★Amazing program for desktop, have used it for a long time and does amazing things, but the issue is that I cannot connect to my pc from this application from my phone. I tried to manually enter my IP address, but it did not work. I tried to restart the application, but it still did not work. I also tried to manually allow the application access in the firewall, but it already had it. So please clarify how to to connect or fix this issue. I am running android 7.0 on Lg v20 and Windows 10 on Dell inspiron 15 7000 series
2 ★I could never get it to connect really. A lot of times it would register my computer after searching for awhile but would still not say connected. Now running linux and I can't find any information on what to enable to try to connect it in linux because I only see the json api not the playback api to enable. Any help would be appreciated but right now I can't give a good review. If it connects or some support I would gladly give a great review. It seems good if it works.
5 ★Great app! Does exactly what its advertised to. Looks great, has great functionality and is super responsive. Would love to see thumbs up/down functionality added. I love the volume control options from within the app, but have also noticed that changing the volume outside of the app (in lockscreen or via my pebble) would not change the volume of the playback on my PC. This is understandable since the volume of the playback on the PC is not directly linked to the device volume of the controller. Another issue I've noticed is that the device cannot control the playback while in battery saver unless the device is unlocked. I.e. cannot control from my pebble or from lockscreen. Again, this is understandable as battery saver restricts wifi communication when locked. Would love to see workarounds for these tough issues as well playlist/queue control so I can switch playlists from the controller.
5 ★Genuinely amazed, very impressive! Just came across this while looking for a remote for Google Play Music. I've now installed GPMDP for Windows and it's incredible, it does everything you want and more. So many features, and as simple as it is one of my favourites is that this remote uses the same colour/theme that you set on the desktop app. Brilliant app mate, well done. 😁
