Mobile Security and Antivirus 14.0.9.75
Fortunately, there are some applications that could help users with that, one of them is Mobile Security and Antivirus. It's a nice antivirus app, rather straightforward but with quite useful tools.
Sleek UI with plenty of tools at hand
It's always nice to come across developers who have taken the time and effort to create a tutorial for new users to get an overview of the app's functions. Mobile Security and Antivirus doesn't come with any instructions, although it could have used at least some tips for new users.
The first thing that you need to do after launching this app is to register with an account, you can only use an email address and no social networking accounts which wouldn't take that long. The interface is quite intuitive, access to features is made directly from the home screen using thumbnails.
Keep your device protected from malware
The app automatically performs a scan when you first launch it and it won't take that long. It shows you the number of files that it scanned, mainly apps and storage space.
There's a separate section with detected files and apps, it's where you'll find the files that have some issues that you need to look into. The app comes with a call manager that allows users to block calls and add numbers to a black or whitelist. It would have been nice if it also had the option of removing your call log and clearing some storage space.
Some more tools
It doesn't stop there, it comes with the option of locking access to certain areas of your phone, so that others who access it won't be able to see the information. Parental control lets you limit access to calls, messages, location services and photos stored on your device.
The app has an anti-theft feature, enable it and lock your device, wipe data, locate it and have it scream in case of loss or theft. In addition, you can backup and restore data on your phone.
All in all, it's a nice antivirus app but if you want to make sure your device is protected, it's best to use one of the more popular apps as they have updated databases.
