How to install BikeHikeCary APK on Android phone or tablet?
Download BikeHikeCary APK file from ApkClean, then follow these steps:
Update Phone Settings
Go to your phone Settings page
Tap Security or Applications (varies with device)
Check the Unknown Sources box
Confirm with OK
Go to Downloads
Open Downloads on your device by going to My Files or Files
Tap the APK file you downloaded (com.vitasys.cary-v1.5-ApkClean.apk)
Tap Install when prompted, the APK file you downloaded will be installed on your device.
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.

4 ★This app is great for finding greenways, and I love the ability to filter by amenities. However, the driving directions are sometimes iffy. The Crabtree directions, for instance, send you to a neighborhood instead of the actual parking lot. Still, this has plenty of utility, just make sure you double check the map before you start to drive!
4 ★Galaxy SIII. Update 1/16/2015: Updated version loads. Thanks! Changed to four stars. Need to play around with it more, learn what it has to offer, and how to use it. 1/10/2015: App hangs on loading screen. Great idea, but needs to go back for more thorough testing before it's ready to release.
4 ★I love the concept but the app does not work. Installed on Samsung S4. It wont even open. 2/5/2015: Update: Thanks for the quick response, and fix. It is working (and has been since your response). Changing my review to 4-stars. I think it's a 4-star app for someone who is new to the area, or not that familiar with the trails. Very handy tool
4 ★** Updated Review ** Now runs on my Note 3 - Thanks! Tested all the functions and they worked great. Only negative is that the app does not exit gracefully. The menu file does not have an Exit option, and hitting the phone Back button only toggles between main screen and the Bike search, Hike search or Map (whichever was last viewed). So I have to manually kill the app.
3 ★Somewhat useful but could benefit from technical contribution of an experienced mobile app developer. Needs menus. Hamburger, 3-dot, context (long-hold on displayed feature), etc. Is there a key/legend telling what the colors mean? Thanks for sharing it. I hope this app continues to improve.
5 ★This app runs great on my Galaxy S4. Saves me from keeping an extra copy of the old paper map. Untill one of the big providers like AllTrails or MapMyHike plugs into the live Cary town planning servers, this app will be the gold standard of where to get outside in Cary.
4 ★I liked the live map integration. I'll need to play with it more, but first impression is good. Thanks to the N&O for the tip (in Cary News). (Scott Johnston - most Android apps no longer have "Exit" or close buttons. The operating system is supposed to handle that.)
3 ★Not ready for prime-time! | Updated to new version on Jan 16, and it now works on my Android 4.4.2 | Just wish there was a greenway button!
4 ★If only I could see the reviews of the trails and parks.
3 ★App installed on my Samsung Note3, and runs ok. However, the interface is not too user friendly. Menu selections are pull out sidebars. It would be better if the focus remained on the same page and pulldown lists or radio buttons were available for the various selection items. Also, there's no exit from the main menu. I had to press my menu button leaving the app running in the background.
1 ★Same problem as first downloader, it opens and then hangs interminably on the three bar loading screen.
1 ★Un-installed. Looks nice but could not exit from app without powering down. Galaxy S4
