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 ★I'm a user of ISS Transit Prediction since years. It's a great tool and the author is great too (he answered me very fast every time I needed help or clarification). I'd just like the app to support a larger maximum radius to run the simulation.
5 ★The prediction are fairly accurate and consistent. At first I was concerned when the prediction conflicted with the free transit finder on the web. But this is the one that's accurate. It also could be use for planetary transit, but I never got the chance to test it yet
3 ★Is there a tutorial for the screens and text data of the prediction screens?
5 ★The app works well. One feature I really like is that it does planet transits as well as the sun and moon.
5 ★Was able to capture ISS based on information from this app.
5 ★Brilliant, accurate,easy to use!
5 ★Easy to use and it's accurate and correct!
5 ★Super accurate predictions. If it could only predict a cloud coming over 13 secs before a transit after I drove 45 mins!
5 ★With the Calsky website no longer in operation this is the only way to get accurate predictions of ISS-Planetary transits. Thanks to this app I was able to find a shooting location and successfully get an excellent image of the ISS right next to Jupiter last week, a very rare occurrence. I will no doubt continue using it for the much more common Lunar and Solar transits.
5 ★Does what it says
