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

4 ★Great! But wish it would switch access points quicker!
3 ★Works great, but requires "Location Service" to be on for WiFi scanning. However, other WiFi analyzer app , e.g. WiFiAnalyzer(open source), on the same cell phone can do WiFi scanning (SSIDs, BSSIDs, etc.) without turning on the Location Service. Turning on Location Service may cause unnecessary battery drain and privacy concern. The open souce app may give some hint/guide on how WiFi scanning can be done without Location Service.
5 ★Best wifi roaming app
5 ★Works perfectly for Router + WiFi Extender network setup with same SSID name and channel. Spend the day trying various apps but this is the only one that keeps my Galaxy S5 and S7 phones connected to the highest strength signal access point.
5 ★Great app. Works really well.
5 ★The only app I found which changes to the same SSID based signal strength. It actually works, is very flexible, and a great UX.
3 ★This app has marshmallow support,but keeps crashing itself
5 ★When I am in location with multiple wifi I get the best service available.
5 ★It really does work great if multiple networks, or close proximity to others, or in-between towers this makes sure you are not burning through battery.
5 ★Keeps my gaming lag to a minimum and my nvidia shield streaming smooth.
5 ★Works great!
4 ★Worked great until the OxygenOS open beta 28 update on my Oneplus 3 with Oreo 8.0.0. I think the OS kills background processes more agressively. Please fix this if possible.
