Quick FAQ
Q: I'm just wondering why you included the "created by droiddreamkiller"
A: This string was added so that if you look at this file, say three weeks from now, and see this string, you will know that this file was here because DDK created it, not the malware.
Q: See my double post this is malware [...] I did not submit any review
A: Shawn, for future reference: there are other people whose name is Shawn. Sometimes, they, too, write reviews. Thanks for the one star review, though.
Q: Doesn't work on my phone, running [exotic ROM xxx] and [very rare kernel 1.2.3] should I rate this app with one star for not working?
A: I would really appreciate it if you didn't. Contact me instead and we will see if we can figure out what incompatibilities your phone has.

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.
