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.

1 ★PITA to restore bulbs after outage! Get hue.

5 ★Works SO MUCH better than the official Lifx app. Feature wise its pretty bare bones but all the necesary features are there. I dont see myself using the official app anymore now that I have this. Thank you!!

5 ★I wanted a lan app for my phone that allowed me to control my lights without any weirdness. This app does that, and nothing more (that's a good thing). Simple, effective, fast and reliable!

5 ★widgets would be amazing

2 ★App doesnt detect lifx bulbs on same wifi network. Junk.

4 ★The official Lifx app work not stable on my network, probably due to bad cloud Access. This app has not that problem: it seems to work even without internet access, and that's a big plus (the 4 stars). Why not 5 stars : looks like there is functioning to add, like slow dim up or down to mimic sunrise and sunset at alarm times. If this is present, then I could not find it in the interface. But this app has potential and the author has to be supported to continue the work.

5 ★Definitely doesn't have as many features as the official app but it sure as hell is more reliable and faster to open. 10/10

5 ★The original LIFX app literally had me going round in circles for 5hours resetting my device. This works instantly. You need to turn off your wifi and connect to the LIFX strip manually. Then go to the app, change the light settings. Only then can you turn your wifi back on. Really thankful this app is compatible as the LIFX strips aren't cheap and was worried I'd have to return them. Many thanks to the developer.

5 ★Just what I needed!!! After a solid day of unsuccessfully trying to get the LIFX z to rejoin and connect to the cloud, I install this and immediately have full control of my LED's, which had been sitting on my network unable to jive with the garbage OEM app and cloud. You must use the OEM app to connect to your wifi, then control with this app. Response time is immediate and all traffic remains on your Lan. I'll live without Alexa. Like other reviewers, I would LOVE to give this Dev some $$$.

1 ★Doesn't work, I have 7 lifx devices, it finds none of them.
