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 ★The only one that works.
3 ★Used to be great... Does not function on Oreo however.
2 ★But the folder shortcut brings up dozens of inappropriate apps to open a folder, yet doesn't include the only one needed - my file manager (what's up with that???). One can't open a folder with a media player or image editor or any of the other weird apps this tried to associate with a folder. File shortcuts part worked as expected, but, sorry, not good enough esp. as folder shortcuts are what I need more.
5 ★But 1 Problem, In my Mi Max phone, i can not open the folder with shortcut...
3 ★it's a great app. but the file and extension filter, at bottom, are stuck on *.*, can't change.
3 ★Can't create shortcut simply shared from other app such as a photo viewer. No user customizable icon.
4 ★No
5 ★Out of the three file shortcut apps I tried this is the only one that doesn't jack all my previous shortcuts with the last one I created. Why do you not have a donation link? I gladly donate to app developers who put out free apps that work the way I need them to
5 ★It's so simple and it works, fantastic app (on my Nexus)
4 ★I get the message, no room on any page, whatever that means, but it makes a shortcut. I wish i could choose an icon for files that it doesn't already have one for.
1 ★Nothing happens when I touch Create Shortcut. I sure have selected a file
5 ★OoVoo o
