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 ★Channel 5 App is an exceptional example of quality in the digital system. High praise for craftsmanship of the highest regard.
1 ★I did use this app for years for local news but I could no longer tolerate the partisan articles. I reinstalled twice and uninstalled immediately due to fabricated headlines. No more installs
5 ★I've tried other weather apps, but this one is the best! The NBC5 news is excellent, also.
5 ★I look forward to this app everyday I love the weather alerts especially the lighting strikes the reports are very well done.
2 ★Extremely poor performance when using push notification links to stories. Almost never responds to homepage button commands. Only thing it's good for is weather and emergency story alerts
2 ★Every 5 seconds got an error that the app keeps crashing.
2 ★Could be a nice app if they would just put information in articles instead of trying to make everything a video. Just so tired of apps thinking people want to watch videos for news information.
5 ★NBC 5 Chicago weather app REALLY DOES let me see the weather RIGHT DOWN TO MY STREET! It shows where the scattered weather is happening, which allows me to plan my time outdoors.
1 ★That's it. Fed up with this stupid app. Videos won't load, and links from alerts always crash the app. Jettisoned. Gone. Yeah, it's free, but you should fire the developer of this app. You're wasting your money.
1 ★I get my TV through Roku. I think I should be able to view the news. It's in the public interest that I stay informed. I call it greed. this is free TV, for goodness sakes, and I would be willing to view commercials.
3 ★Please change the cloud color back to blue. Why did you even change it? It makes it harder to see. Grey on white background?.
5 ★I appreciate the alerts and I can watch live TV and other programs while waiting for service and waiting in line.
