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.

5 ★Probably the best teacher you'll ever get on your phone. After extensive studying and research I've found it's simply best to study tactics instead of openings/main lines. Quit memorizing lines and switch to tactical studies and I can assure you your game will improve significantly. I've been ripping off my friends pieces lately now that I have a better grasp on these forks and tactics/forcing moves.
3 ★Good but just doesn't see sacrifices that come with check. Sometimes it even makes you play out entire lines when a much easier line would achieve the same result if a check sacrifice was made. It's super annoying, but other than it's a pretty good app.
5 ★Such a good way to learn chess. Thousands of interesting puzzles to help improve your skills.
5 ★Thank you for a great stuff for studying playing chess! Really like it. One minus for me - its difficult to find where white and where black figures - they look the same. Black better to draw exactly Black colour, without white lines. Thank you)
4 ★I like the app and it has improved my game. Not sure how accurate the ELO generator is, I think it's rateing me a bit high, says I'm a high 1500 but I feel more like a mid 1300. Only using the free version for now but am looking into buying the full version.
4 ★Really solid tactics puzzles. Decently written app too. I wish there was some way to get a bonus for getting puzzles right on the first try, as you can just try again if you fail. I also wish the family of other chess teaching apps it's tied to weren't ridiculously expensive or I'd buy them all. If you are a chess beginner, this app by itself is well worth the price.
4 ★Good for tactics and how pieces move just learning.
5 ★I haven't played chess in years. This app is helping me review. It's easy and fun.
4 ★As a beginner player this app will help learn ways to think outside the box!
3 ★EDIT: 8/7/20 "CAPTURE A QUEEN", I make a move, told it's INCORRECT only to discover it WAS correct! PLEASE FIX THIS BUG! EDIT: 4/27 So far on "Capturing A Knight", three out of 23 times I was told my answer was wrong only to be shown that my answer WAS correct, but it was still marked as incorrect. This seems to be a glitch for this particular app.// Not for newbies. Great practice for folks who know the basics of chess (how to set up board; where pieces go, how they move, their value, e.t.c.).
5 ★A fantastic trainer app. Ranks your as you solve chess puzzles. I do wish it were a little more instructional, but it really hits the core of how chess must be learned, by wrapping your mind around it.
5 ★Easy to learn, progresses enough to keep it challenging. Would recommend!
