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.

User's Reivew

5 ★Excellent application for entering and viewing solar data on pvoutput
2 ★Pretty unhappy since last update. Dashboard inconsistently displays graph size. It now requires multiple clicks to get to see the table data I want. As of the last update, the data loads quite slowly. Developer unresponsive.
3 ★It was a great app. But since the last update, data loading so slow and column data is not always aligned correctly. I would prefer to re-install the previous version which was a 5 star app.
2 ★September update broke this app update: been in contact with dev (who is excellent btw) about issues I'm having. Unfortunately issues since September update remain: data update takes 10-15 min and several tries, columns do not line up (seem shifted), previous data always must be re-fetched (again, very slow). And quite frankly, I find the dashboard implementation quite cumbersome.
5 ★Works well. Provides the information that you need.
5 ★Update 08/08/13: Now it compares your generation to previous periods, this is one of my favourite things to do and thus far have been using spreadsheets. Fantastic! Update 01/06/13: Loving the latest update and loving the app. Keep up the great work! Original review: Great app and now with the pro widgets and advert removal, even better! Also, I like the commitment the subscribe route shows to the app. I am very happy to pay and help support the developer and am looking forward to the next features!
5 ★Pvoutput is genetic allowing users to compare between systems around the world. Consumption data can be recorded to get a true view of what impact your solar has. Mark is on the ball helping you if you any have quotations.
5 ★Would love to see it get a face lift, but it is great at what it does.
2 ★Does the job, but graphs are hard to read
1 ★Because my husband had it first, it never even worked for me. Can't 2 people in the one house use it?
5 ★Thanks for the app. Does what it says and reasonably quick
5 ★Super app and widget
