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 ★I am so thankful this has now been updated to work with newer versions of Android OS! Thanks for providing this resource. It's great to have on hand for the pastoral care situations that arise.
5 ★Great pastoral resource! I use it every day in my visiting. And it works on my Google Pixel 7 now, as well as my Chromebook. The psalm tones are a big help to me, too, since I enjoy chanting the psalms.
5 ★This is such a help for my shut in visits
1 ★5 YR UPDATE: I can't believe after 5 years of "development" this app has not gotten any better. This app is still an embarrassment to the LCMS. Come on CPH. It's depressing to see the current state of digital development at cph. This app is unreliable, and looks and functions dated. I can't possibly imagine using this in a service, where I am relying on it to work. Scripture references do not always work when clicked on. Navigation has not been thought out. It's embarrassing to the LCMS.
5 ★Thank you! Works great.
4 ★After more than a year of non-functioning, it works again. And thanks for fixing it do it works in one column.
2 ★This app used to work well on my S3, but since upgrading to a Note 4 I am unable to see any of the Psalms and other readings. I press the link and a blank page opens up.
1 ★Too many prayers for the dead, need more prayers for the living. And app too expensive. NO FONT ADJUSTMENT. App very dry in black and white
5 ★As far as I can tell, it contains everything that's in the book Pastoral Care Companion from CPH. And it's easy to use.
3 ★This application is very helpful and does contain some great resources. The main drawbacks are ease of in app navigation (a search function would help) and the price. I understand the value vs. the print edition but it is still rather expensive. Perhaps some of that money could go to making all of the resources included more easily accessible (psalms for instance). I also have not seen the commentaries mentioned in the description, I'm sure they are there but again navigation needs to be improved.
