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 ★Love it
5 ★loved it
4 ★App seems to work pretty well. Just need to know what video file types it will play. I have tried a couple and they wouldn't work. Sent dev an email. Hopefully they get back to me. To those of you complaining of no app icon. Read the description. It says there is no ui for this program. It appears in the sharing list. Select a file and choose share, you will then see filesmaster as a choice. Have the app open on your watch and send it. Files transfer just fine. Giving 4 stars because of lack of info of video file types supported.
4 ★Works good, need better documentation. Now able to play via folders on gear s3. Volume works by swiping up/down . Works as advertised. Maybe put in n forward track and back track for music, and take off stop button as pause does that already.
5 ★Fair enough if you're genuinely having problems, but I see too many one star ratings and reviews from those it's obvious don't know how to use this properly. It works just fine!
1 ★I downloaded the $3.00 app for gear s2, it is on watch. I downloaded the $3.00 companion for my phone and it's nowhere to be found. I think I was just ripped off for $6.00.
1 ★Dl'd both for S3 and s6edge and can't didn't he damn app anywhere refund me or ill be in touch a Google
1 ★doesnt work... installed on both sides and tried sharing file on phone and nothing gets to gear... tried many many timea... i need my money back for the software
1 ★You see it in your phone when you hold on a file in file manager and select share. You must have the app from Samsung App Store installed on your watch, too. It used to work great, then my phone updated to a new Android version and it doesn't seem to transfer files anymore..
2 ★Bought the Tizen version for my Gear S3. Everything worked but trying to transfer a file to the Galaxy S8 plus, does not work. The S8 is shown as a paired device. But when trying to transfer it says: "This Bluetooth device is not compatible smartwatch device"
1 ★Not working on my note5 and gear s2-3g.i want my money for tizen apo back
1 ★Very inconsistent in buggy the two apps I bought from Samsung apps I can't get a refund I guess work with one song didn't work with the other songs pain in the ass.
