Description

Klink is a utility by Faveset LLC for connecting a PC or Mac to your Android device over USB. It focuses on simplicity and gets the job done with a few taps. Yet, it is one of the fastest of its kind. Power users also won't feel left out, as it has many mobile-specific settings that don't exist anywhere else.

Installation is simple like with EasyTether or PdaNet, and the in-app setup guide walks you through everything in less than 10 minutes.

The original version has over 20,000 paid users and an average Market rating above 4.3, so everything is well-tested, but please don't hesitate to email and ask questions!

NOTE: Please try the free demo version ("Klink - Tether Demo" on the market) to test compatibility before buying. Klink should work with every device out there, so don't hesitate to contact support if you need help. The demo can be upgraded via the market without any further configuration on your computer.

FEATURES:

- Supports Windows (XP/Vista/7/8/32-bit/64-bit), Mac OS X 10.5 (or later), and Ubuntu Linux (32-bit/64-bit).
* Ubuntu binaries can be used with other Linux distributions (also tested with Fedora and Arch).

- This is only for USB connections to a PC or Mac. Tablets are not supported!

- Does not require a rooted device

- It has a unique Mimic Mobile Device mode that lets you browse mobile pages as the device of your choosing to conserve data. Moreover, this mode can also block common background data activity to avoid excessive data usage.

- Written in C (NOT Java) for efficiency, speed, and lower power consumption.
* Is fast and capable of handling 4g speeds: can reach 30mbps in real-world conditions on capable devices.

NOTE TO PURCHASERS OF THE ORIGINAL KLINK: Your purchase is still valid, and it is NOT necessary to buy this version. Please visit the "Download" page at www.faveset.com to download the original version of Klink, or email support if you have questions.

USAGE:

After installing and running Klink, please tap "Set up your Computer" and follow the instructions. Klink requires the installation of a small companion program on your PC or Mac, so following the step-by-step guide is suggested.

HELP: Please visit the Google Group via http://www.faveset.com/klink/support, or email klink@faveset.com.

It would be appreciated if you asked for help before posting negative feedback, as virtually all problems can be resolved. Otherwise, please leave your email address when commenting so that someone can get in touch with you.

As some users may have difficulty evaluating everything within the 15-minute refund window, a once-per-user 24-hour return policy is in effect; simply include your order number when contacting support. No one should feel rushed. Please contact support if you need any help during setup.

PERMISSIONS:

CHECK_LICENSE - Needed for Android Market license verification.
INTERNET - Requires a data connection.
WRITE_EXTERNAL_STORAGE - Used for downloading companion files during setup.

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 ★Simply worked. Worth your money if you want something that just works flawlessly. Verizon took away my tethering, so had to search for something that would both work and I can trust. You are my savior!

5 ★I've been using this app for my Macbook Pro (Mid 2012) super quick. Its been almost a half a year and its still working great. I had PDAnet for awhile and it sucked the speeds were to slow.

5 ★I really appreciate an app that remains simple to use, inexpensive compared to the competition and even allows for gaming. What more can I ask for...?

3 ★I dont understand it. The app used to work great. But now it seems to get stuck at random times and forces me to have to restart the app on the phone and computer. Works great though when it is working. 15mbps down and 5mbps up. Please fix this developers. This app would be perfect if that would stop.

4 ★license error. i've been using this apps like everyday and almost 24/7 suddenly yesterday i cant start the apps, it stated that . License error , Received licensing error from the Play Store: 6. Overall the Apps is awesome and really easy to use

5 ★this app works wonderfully and every time I have ever had a question and sent an email I receive a reply immediately and they don't stop communication until a problem is resolved however all my problems have been user error on my part. If I received customer service like this from others my world would be a better place. Best $5 I have EVER spent! EVO 4g and EVO shift both work beautifully. Read and follow instructions exactly and all smooth sailing. Thanks KLINK!

2 ★I dont want to say that its a bad app because i may be doing something wrong but when i installed on my phone i went to put it on my pc and it said unsupported file and i couldnt find it in my downloads from the pc. Also i just tried to download it from my pc itself using another form if internet but it said its a bad link and i have to contact someone. Now i hope i didnt spend my money for nothing because i really need internet for school. Or how can i get a refund since no one wants to help me. Thank You

1 ★Unfortunately, as of August 4, 2020, I must rescind my five-star rating, as the app no longer functions properly, citing an expired access pass. With a USB tethering option now built into my phone, I'll be using that instead. You had a good run, Klink, and you served me well for years, but now it's time for this chapter to close.

5 ★What a great app! When my home PC went down, & the tech support at HP couldn't help....this app saved my computer...and sanity. Thank You!

5 ★The app works now after tech support helped me install problem. Thanks Kevin Ko, you were very helpful.

4 ★This app was fantastic at first. Then as I kept using it it got worse and worse. I use a LG Optimus F3 for Virgin Mobile with 4G. Please help.

5 ★I have an old phone running Android 2.2 - no root - and this is the ONLY tether app that would work on my phone. The only other one I was able to get working on my phone was EasyTether, but for their full version you have to give a bunch of info about your phone - serial number, network ID#, etc - that I think is unnecessary and an invasion of privacy. This one is $4.99 and worth every penny. It took me less than 10 minutes to install even when I had no idea what I was doing & had some initial trouble getting my USB to connect properly (my fault, not theirs) so someone who knows what they're doing can get up & going within five minutes. Excellent, excellent, excellent. Thank you for a great app! Note to readers: Make sure you install the demo version first to ensure that it will work with your phone; the demo will walk you through the install & setup even without wifi on your PC and will let you test the connection with a handful of websites.
