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

3 ★Gameplay is ok but dice rolls at the hardest level is heavily weighted in favour of computer which always gets favourable outcomes regardless of the odds.
4 ★Just such a good way to pass the time. I started out as a real beginner but now hold my own around 1600. I should really take advantage of all the features, including online playing.
3 ★I bought this app wanting to play online. It was a great for about a year. Recently they updated it and removed online play, now I can only play the computer and get my ass kicked.
5 ★Fantastic app. Really appreciate all of the work on it. The only provably fair app I've found. Too bad Google yanked the multiplayer API. I would gladly pay for a upgraded app with multiplayer functionality.
5 ★Helped accelerate my learning of the game and for some reason, it was the easiest on my eyes compared to other games I had tried before finding this one.
3 ★Best backgammon game I've played but online would be nice Edited. It's not as bad as most online gammon apps but dice rolls definitely favour the computer.
5 ★It's a great app I am a professional player and enjoying this app very much My score is 47%
1 ★Do not buy! First off, its too expensive for what it delivers. Plus the roll algorithm is incredibly leaning towards the computer. I would say to the affect that this game is not playable.
5 ★Must have and worth your money if you are learning the game. Love picking up new skills and have already talked my wife into getting it too (she's an iPhone user). You won't be disappointed.
2 ★When a game app consistently gets the perfect roll, always the key number to defend or attack with, it quickly becomes unenjoyable to play... I love backgammon - just not against a flawed computer program.
5 ★My husband and I play when we go out to dinner, having a great game on our phones sure is easier than using a board on the table.
3 ★Great design but the AI gets outrageous luck.
