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 ★Good.
5 ★Useful
5 ★Great app. The most accurate I've found for So Cal Marine Waters. Catalina, Mexico, Santa Barbara. Works for me everytime. Great for planning my weekends and I'm sure when I decide to step it up it will be useful for longer distances.
5 ★I plan all my sailing trips with it. Absolutely necessary!
5 ★I use it during sail trip planning. Hasn't failed me yet.👍
5 ★I like it
5 ★Love the app seems to be pretty accurate...
5 ★Great one
5 ★Useful app
5 ★Great app. Works just fine. 2 day limit for free version is a bit of a restriction but weather forecasts in general are not particularly reliable beyond that anyway. My comment regarding accuracy beyond 2 days is NOT in relation to sailgrib, it is regarding weather forecasts​ in general. This does depend upon the location. Around UK waters things can change very quickly and 2 days is about the limit. That said I find sailgrib to be excellent and easy to use. As with all such aids it should be regarded as an aid to assist and not replace upto date local forecasts.
5 ★Brilliant, but it's important to realise that the app can only forecast the gradient winds. If coasting, the user must be aware of local effects on wind speed and direction and consequently, on the waves that they will encounter. Not a criticism, I love the app and have found the 2 day forecast to be very trustworthy. Ideal for planning a short passage or choosing a safe anchorage.
4 ★Good simple app for sailors. Lots of info well presented, minimal ornament.
