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 ★Amazing wallpaper. Only gripe is that the animated pixels seem to slow down a bit after a few seconds of turning the screen on / moving around home screens. The lag is noticeable when you stare at the pixels, so fix this, please!
3 ★Looks great and lots of options!! My problem is, FORCE CLOSE when picking picture for CUSTOM BACKGROUND. Otherwise, perfect!!! 2/7/16... Still does it on different device. 9/6/19... There hasn't been any updates since 2012 so, obviously, all the bugs and glitches still occur. Tsk-tsk, dev. Shame.
5 ★Excellent live wallpaper... Extensive customization settings, allowing you to create a wallpaper in tune with you. No annoying push ads(disable ads via settings menu). Does not impact home screen performance much at all, unlike most live wallpapers. Highly reccomended download.
5 ★It was really cool.!! No ads at all and I love its pixelated raindrop effects.So far, this is the only live wallpaper I've seen very cool and you can change its setting freely.
5 ★Just beautiful, I love it. Really like how customizable it is, and it looks like fireworks with a few tweaks! Default is amazing too tho, I love it. Any chance of a Daydream variant? but what's this ad for the Pixel Suite? I get no results when searching.
3 ★It's cool, but when I want to use a custom wallpaper with the app, the entire live wallpaper freezes (even in the preview) and the toast with telling me it was 'successfully applied' stays on screen. Other than that it's really cool! P.S. I'm using nova launcher prime, I don't know if that's important
5 ★Very simplistic but I like how you can customize the color and where it falls on your screen and if you want them to explode when you touch them...never had a glitching problem where they stopped moving
4 ★Pretty and lots of options, but has flaws it needs to work on. When you are choosing colors for the rain, the options should just be the names of the colors instead of "color 1", "color 2", so it's easier to find the color you want. The custom image background doesn't work and crashes everytime I try to use it, making me have to uninstall and reinstall the app. Other than that the app is great, and you should try it out.
4 ★FYI: If I couldn't turn it off, I would have uninstalled after years of use.
3 ★This is an amazing wallpaper but it hasn't been updated since like 2012. I see great potential in this app but I guess the developer gave up on it but one of the main problems would have to be the slight stutter. Other than that this app is good. I just wish the developers would have kept up with it.
4 ★It makes scrolling through my home screens very choppy on my Xperia PLAY, which is a shame :(
5 ★Just got the official ics update. In the settings/color menu the colors aren't visible anymore from the list. You have to select "color 1" etc.. to tell which color is which.. Small issue, everything is great besides that. Been using off and on since Christmas and its my fav wallpaper.
