About ShortStories APK

Description

ShortStories provides a platform to play text-based games using the various elements of the Android System UI:

• Notifications indicate scenarios in a story, posing a situation in which a choice is required

• App Shortcuts provide a means of making a choice, and making a choice poses a new scenario

• Dialogs provide a means of viewing a list of achievements, gained by exploring various paths in a story

Unique colors, icons, vibration patterns and sounds exist for different types of scenarios, and are used to theme the Notifications. Emoji provide a contextual icon for scenarios and choices.

Stories are defined in XML. A basic structure of Story, Choice, Scenario, Achievement and Finish tags allows ShortStories to parse and play almost any kind of text-based, multiple choice game.

Available on Android 7.1 (Nougat MR1) and above. Ensure that your launcher supports App Shortcuts (tested and works with Pixel Launcher, Google Now Launcher, Nova Launcher and Action Launcher).

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.
