Description

My Things is an app developed by CanAssist at the University of Victoria as a way to easily explore personally meaningful music and photos. It is designed to help people living with dementia [in a care facility] by entertaining them, sparking memories, encouraging socialization, and reducing resistance to care. A help videos feature allows friends and family to record short videos to encourage their loved one to, for example, take medicine or treat others with respect. But the core of the app is simply allowing music to work its magic. Playing that music is just one screen-tap away, and the results have been very encouraging.

*** WHO IS IT FOR? ***

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.
