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.

User's Reivew

3 ★The UI is fiddly and unpolished; one of my three track layout pages came up blank in the app; it often forgets how you had the windows set up; many of the touch areas are small on a 7" tablet, let alone a 5" phone; tapping on two switches at once is interpreted as a double-tap which zooms the layout map, it crashed once when I was zooming a layout map, the layout map zoom doesn't implement pinch-zoom correctly... there's lots of these UI annoyances. But the app has incredibly low latency controlling the trains — you tap a switch, and it changes instantly. You tap a train function, and it takes effect immediately. It connected to the CS2 without any configuration on my part. If you hit the stop button, everything stops instantly. Things that the app doesn't do that you may expect it to: there's no way to edit anything the way you can edit things on the CS2, and there doesn't seem to be any support for the new MFX cabs. In conclusion: as an Android app, it leaves much to be desired. As a Märklin app, it does most of what you need, if not quite everything you might want.
5 ★It's more fun with mänkling now.
