How to install Claris for Caregivers APK on Android phone or tablet?
Download Claris for Caregivers 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 (com.clariscompanion.caregiver-v3.6.0.2-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
3 ★As noted in other reviews, the user (senior) cannot video call out to Android phones. I called and spoke with customer service who indicated this is a known bug and have suggested some work arounds - such as reinstalling the app (didn't work for me), disabling data saver (also didn't work). The best case scenario for Android is to see that the senior had called (it leaves a notification immediately that they tried calling) and you can then open the app and call them back (it seems to work calling them). This is a pretty significant flaw as it doesn't eliminate frustration for the senior. The app for family is a little clunky and while those who are tech savvy don't have much trouble, it could be an issue for some. Otherwise, the ability to use the remote viewer is helpful and the option to launch new features is helpful. Customer service is ok, but you call an answering service first and wait for them to call you back. We'd love to see this running more smoothly soon!!!
2 ★We've tested and tested this app, but my mother cannot video, call out to us on this app. It rings and rings on her end and nothing happens on ours. We can video call to her, however. I've had difficulties adding contacts as well. It is not straightforward to them as to how to accept the invitation. Some are not receiving an email so I've tried to edit their email and it doesn't seem possible. Some kinks to work out
5 ★Similar to the desktop console. Works well on galaxy s6. Still the best system out there for getting my grandmother online and sending family photos.
1 ★Can't type messages properly on android device and uploading photos doesn't seem to work either. Samsung S5 being used.

5 ★Considering the few programs there are of this kind, I consider this quite good. All functions work, with no issues so far.
