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.

5 ★There is not a better made artist assistant app than this. You can bend at every joint! They have heads, animal skulls, feet! You can move the lighting, change colors of the lighting, set shadows! The 3d models are incredibly intricate, and the coding is sublime. You people working on this app, thank you! P.s. a tiny thing that I think might just be with my phone, the opening selection screen is now sideways, it no longer fits along my screen normally, still works perfectly though! Oneplus6
4 ★My only issues are a) I wish there were more options for faces with different features, like thinner and thicker heads, maybe muscle vs skinny vs chubby, etc. The male head for example looks a bit too much like a body builder. And b) I wish there was a way to rotate the head without changing its angle to the camera, like clockwise or counter-clockwise, since getting it back to straight is almost impossible without restarting the app. Other than that it's a great reference tool.
5 ★This app is literally so... handy. Just having this as an option has convinced me to draw more, easy access to references and being easy to customize. Sometimes it can be hard finding refs of exactly the pose I want. Only used it for hands so far but it's great. I love that you can modify the lighting as well. Really recommended!
2 ★Could be very useful. Really needs the ability to lock the camera axis though. It's very frustrating to have the model spin about accidentally. If we could have the ability to just turn it along the x axis, it would be usable. For sculpting, its just too frustrating to turn the figure.
5 ★A very useful tool for making the lightning studies of the head and hands. Well worth the money. I bought the the animal skulls add-on, and if I ever need to draw feet I will buy that add-on. I would appreciate an addon that would help me to draw shoes and boots correctly:) I always had a trouble with these.
2 ★Asked for a refund because even though I paid for the app you still have to pay for other features like animal skulls or feet models. Also something that I was expecting is that they isn't any models of the body. Some good features like rotation and saving and they're alot of references for hands and head, therefore this app is great for that. I just don't expect to pay for other features after paying for the app, the feet model are even on show in the pictures.
5 ★Honestly the best app I've ever purchased. I bought it for the phone and the desktop and its helped me with my art so much. I have grown as an artist because of this app. I reccomend it to everyone who asks where to begin learning to draw. You will not be disappointed with this app.
5 ★I like it. Its nice to be able to position the light source around the hand or head. I bought it for the positionable hands so I could stop trying to awkwardly use my left hand as a model. It works great for that. It would be nice to include more variety in shapes in the future.
5 ★Very easy to use, grate for studying the head in different angles, light and shadow and planes of the head
4 ★Is good and useful pocket reference. Great for lazy artists. The separation of head/hands/feet is a great way to concentrate on the object. "Geometrical" versions are truly helpful. I dig the face shading from now on.
5 ★I like this app faces are pretty difficult. i like that you can rotate every aspect from the tilt of the head, full frontal,side profile,3/4 view and the lighting as well. I would definitely recommend to my artist buddies.
5 ★Been using the app for years, as well as other similar ones- I bought this on Android, PC AND iOS. Easily the best app of its type, no other anatomy ref has this level of straightforward ease and doesnt have infuriating paywalls to use basic features like most competitors. THANK YOU, HANDY!
