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

4 ★I am running Version 2.38.193 on my Android phone (Samsung S23), connected via ESU CabControl. There seems to be some issues with a few functions when activated. Eg, when F0, F8 or F9 are selected, an error message appears saying "ESU: error while writing: syntax". It is not specific to any locomotive. Other functions work just fine. This wasn't occurring in the previous version.
4 ★Little difficult to turn on and off. Works great otherwise.
5 ★I run HO trains at my club. A year or two ago the handsets started dying and many people started bringing NCE handsets to run DCC trains. These cost money and require some learning to control easily. I decided to use engine driver with the JMRI system installed in the layout. Not only was it cheaper but the graphic display was much easier to use. I have also found it to be very reliable. I like the program and recommend it to anyone who wants a digital system to control their trains.
5 ★Great app
5 ★Great App. I need to get the update. Had been working on scenery of late.
5 ★Works great with JMRI and ESU Cab Control. ESU updated their firmware which allows you to directly connect Engine Driver with the CabControl base station.
5 ★I installed Engine Driver for a club wifi years ago. It worked great. I bought an ESU CabControl system this year, and the Engine Driver works perfectly, allowing me to use my old phones as throttles for multi-operator OpSess. I use it at the Colorado Model Railroad Museum and it's very handy. I actually prefer it to most of the commercial throttles I've used. And if I have a problem the developer is very willing to help.
1 ★Access to my photos, audio, and video devices are NOT necessary and will not be granted. That's why I immediately deleted it once I saw what permissions were defaulted and required.
5 ★Fabulous DCC throttle.
5 ★Works fantastic with dcc-ex.
