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.

5 ★Excelent app and excelent support. Approaches things inovativly and diferently than other filght instrument apps. Very feature rich.
5 ★Love this app. Definitely my go to and recommend fight computer app. The maps are great and the thermal assistant helps center the thermals just that little bit more. The live tracking features are great I can stream my flight to skylines and xc contest. After reading the manual a couple times. The app was really easy to figure out. I just with there was more of a community around this app.
5 ★Awesome
5 ★Brilliant app for paragliding and paramotoring with a superbly helpful developer
5 ★XC-Guide and Sskylines.aero provides fantastic support for groups of pilots and support drivers. Is there a support forum to ask questions? Peter Evans
5 ★This is a fantastically complete app that does everything you can imagine and more. The ability of XC guide to connect with a large number of external devices and sensors is amazing. For example, you can connect it to an inexpensive home-built FANET+ antenna to see and be seen by other local pilots using FLARM or FANET, and see and be seen by additional pilots/aircrafts from a wide range of tracking networks through your internet. This is just one of the many amazing features.
5 ★Excellent app:::::)))))
5 ★Well great for Paragliding and Paramotoring and the OGN tie in makes this a great system to fly with your friends.
5 ★Absolutely brilliant, feature rich app with live tracking, airspaces and hotspots. Breathed new live into an old android phone which is now velcroed to my flight deck alongside my flymaster navsd and garmin inreach. Obviously built by a talented developer who loves to fly!
5 ★Great app and support, thanks
