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 ★Thank you, BBC Worldservice. I can listen to your programs, in Good digital sounds, while scrolling through on other stories, to read. Good morning, BBC. It is my companion, on my smart mobile device. It's so good, you can minimize this app, do other Microsoft Office work on your mobile device, as you listen to it playing in the background. It's Super, BBC. Bless UP! Thank you, London UK. Thank you, BBC Worldservice. Thank you, Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth.
3 ★Yes!.. Thanks, indeed...i have been following BBC News , listening to it over the short wave bands in the Radio, Now, it's so digitally advanced, So, to speak , now I watch hell of lots news happen around in my smart phone, So precise n in presenting the current update of situations happens every moment...thanking you , Sir...Hi there, Yes! Indeed, from short wave bands on the radio to somewhat digitalized news over the air, makes lots of difference, more crystal clear quality.. Mighty thanks.
5 ★I have listened to BBC since l was 12 years old. From Shortwave through the FM and now the App. The experience is superior, l am able to either listen to live broadcast or choose listen to the recorded programs. Learning and keeping in touch with world events just took a different turn and l am really enjoying it. Great work wby the team at the World's radio station!
1 ★I used to enjoy BBC World Service until they started putting ads in. Now I can't stand it, spoilt by the ads, good job BBC.
2 ★A couple of links, such as "About", do not work. It doesn't offer all that the regular, original BBC World app offers. So I would give one star; but because it made me discover the existence of two BBC podcast series, i.e. 'The documentary", and "Global News Podcast", --> I am giving two stars. Nevertheless, I am uninstalling it without any regrets.
1 ★Works for about 20 minutes then goes out. Have to restart it then it works for 20 minutes then it goes out. Have to restart it. I sure hope this last update does something to fix all this. Enjoy BBC world service. This is a garbage app
4 ★I like the Crowd Science best. I wish it can be made into a video than just a podcast, so does the News. I like the function of timing for sleep and waking up alarm. This is a unique plus compared to many other podcast players.
4 ★The timer sauts off before the requested span. However, the principec is very good
5 ★This station is quite outstanding and interesting and I listen to it everyday. Just like Sky News. Cheers!!!
1 ★Constantly glitching and going out and having to be restarted. It's definitely not my phone. This is the only app that does this. Basically, if I didn't like listening to BBC , I would never have this garbage on my phone. You suck for this, BBC!
2 ★I can't find the search box on the page linked to in a story notification on my Android phone. Oh, the link took me to some sort of a homepage and the story listed in the notification was not on that page. This is inexcusable. A story from a notification not being at the destination link AND not having a prominent search box on a main screen in a news app...... What's up with that?
5 ★The news podcast is objective and comprehensive. I particularly like special features like drama, classical music and intimate interviews with influencial personalities the world over. In these interviews the BBC reporter assigned usually does his homework. The podcasts are usually educative as well as being informative. Keep up the good work.
