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.

User's Reivew
2 ★I used to love this app but pie update broke it on my phone now when glance plus times out it opens the home screen instead of turning the screen off. Also on my Tabs3 it never worked so none of my devices work with it. Devs need to fix it
1 ★Sorry guys I used to uninstall it. Because it got conflict with my lock screen change to glance when I wanted to unlock it, completely white screen and lagging. The click with Lumia glance: was simple, just show info, no interaction no interference with lock screen
2 ★I wish I could give this a five star review because it does provide a ton of features that similar apps don't, however it hasn't been updated in years and costs $50 to unlock all of the features. That's right, FIFTY. Which is completely ridiculous.
1 ★Ive been using this app almost a year and i have no problem. but after i bought licence for Custom Background. Glance messup my fingerprint sensor. i had to uninstall this app
3 ★works for only 60 seconds. turned off all background optimizations, battery optimizations. only works for 60 seconds. fix that and it's perfect
1 ★Paid $10 to get full content. App constantly stopping. Phones display would flash trying to override the app. Waste of money. Not reasonable functional.
3 ★When pocket mode is turned on while I'm using Always On mode, the phone screen does not turn off while in pocket. I've tried it on several phones.
5 ★best app ever. i use on oneplus 5T. battery consumption is acceptable. i purchased full fetures to hihgly personalized my style. but also the basic app works fine this to show the developer is honest and fare with costumers. recommend.
4 ★I like it but I need to tap on the screen whenever there is incoming call and notification is not showing properly, if music is paused then it won't show play option instead it shows pause icon only.
1 ★wasted money for extras and had to uninstall. Kept alternating from on to off and everytime setting off my lock screen to be unlocked. Very annoying.
3 ★was looking for a landscape glance screen since my phone is in landscape while charging. This also doesn't work in landscape it or I'm missing something.
4 ★Amazing app but recently it started freezing up my phone occasionally Device would unlock but glance overlay would disable all touches still, only fix was to hard reboot
