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.

5 ★nice
5 ★I was looking for an app to place my speed on navigation and any other map for that matter. I have tried a few but this one has the best look. The small speed box is right above the 'time remaining' in the lower left corner of Gnav. No cumbersome interface like the others I tried. Dev is very responsive and helpful too, and that's always a bonus. I use this when I'm on my motorcycle with my phone in its cradle.
2 ★Radardroid blows it out of the water
4 ★I think with a little more polish this could be a must have app. Love the idea
4 ★Works well but needs some good tasker integration.
1 ★I do not see the value of getting alerted on preprogrammed speed limits. Is one supposed to be alerted whenever he exceeds, say,15 20,25,35 etc?
1 ★No ability to set settings in trial version. Pro version purchased only OUTSIDE of Android market. Asks USER for speed limit thresholds. No database.
1 ★This app alarms as you accelerate through user set speeds. It will drive you nuts. I want an app which uses the speed limit databases available to only alarm when I exceed the actual speed limit. Osmand maps nearly do it if you want to see what I mean.
2 ★Seems odd that it overlaps the arrival time. Makes it look poorly integrated, great idea but not liking the execution.
1 ★This looks "out of place" on the current version of Google Maps.
1 ★Useless trial
2 ★I'll wait for an update and try it again.
