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 ★Thanks guys! Works great!
5 ★I had an issue with the game Master of Magic running slow on my 7inch tablet (OMAP-4430 w/ 1GB RAM), and email the developer about the issue. I got a response within 3 hour of my email. After 3 or 4 correspondences back and forth within the same day, the developer was able to help me resolve the speed issue, and now MoM run at near full speed (game runs at 100% speed most of time, with minor slow down to ~75% normal speed once a while). For those of you that is also playing MoM on anDosBox, that runs a little bit slow also. Go into the dosbox.conf file in your sdcard root directory, and un-comment out the cpu cycle setting line, and change the 4000 value to 10000. Save the file, and launch anDosBox. It should run at almost perfect speed now.
1 ★This is just a bad ripoff of dosbox turbo. Bought this one first. Bad idea. There isnt even any sound support!
4 ★Best port of Dosbox I've been able to find for Android. It keeps on getting better and better!
5 ★Totally worth buying.
1 ★Review
5 ★I have got and use all the DOSBox ports on android and have had the most success with this one. Now they have added hardware support for mice its easily the one i would recommend first. Plenty of features and easy to set up for the beginner.
5 ★It worth every piece of money. And support is fast and good.
2 ★Playing Heretic and Screamer is painfully slow on a Galaxy S2 - shame would've thought it would rip through those titles
5 ★Had problems with Forgotten Realms Unlimited Adventures, they provided me buildable andosbox sources for debugging on first request.
5 ★Just added right mouse button support for my 3.1 tablet and keyboard... super awesome!
4 ★Love this on Asus Transformer TF101, the separate game keyboard is great and now I can play all the games quite comfortably. The mouse emulation is atrocious though. Getting the cursor to work like trackpad would be much appreciated as now if I want to move the cursor in-game I need to double tap on my trackpad to get the touchmode on only after which I'm able to move the cursor in-dosbox. Also double-clicking is just impossible. I'm hitting the screen frantically, but it seems only 1/20 attempts goes through. Using mouse controls similar to trackpad controls should do the trick. Also mouse support would be neat for tablets that support them. Fix this and 5 stars are all yours.
