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
4 ★Excellent functionality, but flawed. App doesn't seem to be working properly in background: average values ant travelled distance stop being calculated. Also the app likes freezing/crashing if actively used while recording a track. In terms of functionality it's an awesome gps app.
5 ★Incredible capabilities, not all of which I have learned. Even works in some airplanes depending on type. If you use this app, I suggest a, donation. I have used this for 5 years (at least) and contribute $5 USD periodically.
5 ★A very wonderful experience, its amazing. However, I wish offline Satellite Maps are also made available showing ocean depths indicating reefs in the ocean depths. This would make it a wonderful tool for the fishermen and enthusiast Anglers all over the world.
3 ★This app was great however recently I cant get it to activate the gps when I open the app so I get no speed data, no heading data no number of satellites etc... I have tried clearing cache, clearing data abd re installing. Please could this be fixed.
2 ★When the app works it is great. I used to use it for cycling, hiking, xc skiing, hunting. Now, it stops tracking during every use. Uninstalled.
5 ★Great app for field biologists. Add waypoints, tracks, import/export data from .GPX, .KML and more. Some bugs but still the best app for fieldwork
5 ★Can the orange plus button be moved, hidden or even put on the menu bar? Looking at my tracks the screen shows the route and the speed profile which is obscured by the button. All OK until I want to capture the screen!
5 ★I should have had this when I lived in Mongolia. I had to make my own Navigation System on a Windows tablet which took me 6 month! This is great and very extensive piece of artwork!
1 ★O was looking for an app that would allow me to set waypoints, but this is a mess. It couldn't be less user friendly and intuitive if it tried. Very poor.
4 ★I ride a motorcycle and I use this app all the time to keep up with the trips that I take. It traces my route a lot better than the Google maps location service.
5 ★Awesome. It has never failed me in offline using GPS
5 ★I have used this app for years on many devices and it is very stable and has a number of useful features like the location overlay on top of images
