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
1 ★Each time I get notified about an email or other, glimpse message notifications pops up, too, and doesn't close. It wants me to agree to about 5 different things, even for them to take control over my phone. Then it beeps every few seconds, which is super annoying. I had to uninstall the app the same day I installed it
5 ★Must have for samsung phones with out aod.
1 ★Stop the risks about the personal imformation and bank status. How to use this app youre so many risking about financial or account including social media useless app
2 ★Hasn't been working for like 2 months now. Each time I open the app it keeps telling me to enable notifcations despite already having done it previously and when I click the Enable button I see that notifcations are indeed turned on yet it still says i need to enable them
4 ★Good app but has one problem on My S24 Ultra. The pocket options cannot be activated because it say " Sensor required for this function is not available". Please fix it.
5 ★I needed this. My iPhone used to do this where my screen would wake up and it saved me. Thank you for making this.
1 ★It requires for reading all your other notifications.. I feel bad intention here. There is alternative apps which is not require full notification access to use. Dont use that one.
5 ★Thanks works great on my s24 ultra
3 ★App works as intended for messeges. But when I did some test calls, I noticed it sometimes automatically rejects/drops incoming calls made through Viber. It also does this thing with Viber wherein after it rejects/drops the call, it will say on the caller's end that I am offline but Viber will continue to ring on my end non stop even after the call has dropped on the caller's end. I set the reccurring notification to 30 seconds and it sometimes alarms at different internals or doesn't at all.
5 ★Should be default on Samsung.
