How to install Photo Widget for Android APK on Android phone or tablet?
Download Photo Widget for Android 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 (org.thinkjava.androidphotowidget-v1.63-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.

User's Reivew
5 ★Stunning on HTC Flyer. Has all the options I want and works beautifully. You can choose to have no frame if you want, which I prefer. Twice as many 5-star ratings as any other says it all.
1 ★I have tried wifi and cell connection but still cannot verify license. If you want to make your app this much trouble at least improve it a little. Image quality could certainly be better on some images.
3 ★Works well enough. Has a force close bug when changing frame, but this is easily worked around. After a while searching this is my favourite picture viewing widget due to ease of use and the variety of sizes available (including 3x2). Not sure why the developer didn't think to mention the sizes in the description... Also do not count on ANY support from the dev. I recommend downloading and check it does what you need it to do. If not, get an instant refund via the market.
5 ★Out of every other photo widget I consider this one the best. Even the free version is better than most its competitors. The best thing about this widget is that you can actually choose ANY size to fit your screen.
1 ★Also sets a completely useless icon in your app drawer. Better free options available.
3 ★Love it however: Can't enter more than one item in image search. Did not accept my Picasa credentials. I contacted them by email, let's see how long it takes for a reply.
1 ★Either the app or?android 4.2.2 has stoped the free or paid version from working. When chosing a single image file the app goes into a continous loop. It is like it forgets the file chosen and just keeps asking you over and over and over. Tried ubinstalling and reinstalling to try and fix. Didnt work. Real bunnrr as i had liked it so much i bought it. But now its broken. Bummer as i used it alot on customizing my tablet screens. Please fix it!
4 ★Love this product! Would like to see two minor features to make it a five. How about a shorter update frequency? For such small pictures, I'd prefer 5 seconds. And the second, being about to rotate to landscape when viewing landscape photos so they are bigger. Thanks for a great product and I'm more than happy that I bought it.
5 ★I used the free version for awhile and it worked great, but I wanted a 3x3 frame and more photos in the slideshow. If you have the free version you need to uninstall it to get this version to work properly (you can uninstall it after you install this version).
3 ★Please add bigger sizes for tablet use. Otherwise, no 4 or 5 star rating. I can even deal with the non-tablet optimized menu, just bigger sizes please.
3 ★Does exactly what it says. Some options I'd like to see: presets - being able to setup some preset slideshows, depending on your mood, would be a great addition. As it stands, going into settings to select a different folder is cumbersome. Would also like to see the tap options a little larger, for those of us with fat fingers. Update 11-4-12: I'm revising my review. I've come across a few problems. The settings don't seem to be saved. I'll choose a folder and options, including turning recursive off. After an undetermined amount of time, the recursive option turns itself on. And when I try to turn it off, the app forces closed, and all options revert back to the defaults. I've knocked this down from 5 stars to 3, because of this problem, and because the authors do not respond to emails. This isn't a free app, so some support is expected.
1 ★Makes my Droid Bionic and my Galaxy Tab run like crap. Even after hard reset of both devices. Not even a "too bad, so sad" email response. Beware!!!
