Description
This app will do a quick scan of your device for any Android™ malware appearing since late 2017. Some downloadable apps from Store could be malicious even when they started off as benign. We developed this app because we need a quick security scan for phones, tablets and especially Android™ TV boxes that we owned. It will also inform you if there are applications in your devices (especially TV Boxes) that are not from official Play Store.
One of us has a full time job monitoring Android™ malware in the ecosystem and thus we will be able to maintain this app constantly. Our goal is to push our new versions within 24 hour when there is known malware reported.
It is NOT a Anti-Malware product. It serves our needs and it may serve yours too.

5 ★ Informative and interesting app. Note to developers: for my phone (Samsung Note 9) it shows all the apps I've downloaded from the "Samsung app store" as potentially sideloaded apps. In future updates is it possible to detect that apps have been downloaded from Samsung & were not sideloaded? No big deal but I figured I'd ask anyway. 😊
1 ★ just tells you which app it suspects... no scanning nothing.. pretty useless app really... Im just stating what i observed i installed the app and opened it and it didnt scan or do anything just had some writing on the screen of an app that it suspected but i know is not malware so for this reason i think this app doesnt really do anything.. And malwarebytes is free.. No need to take it persinally its only an app
5 ★ Quick !&Free ! I call it like I see it . You have NO CLUE how many I tried and subsequently uninstalled with a bad review .You're very welcome .
5 ★ Everyone who owns a smartphone or tablet should download and use this app to protect themselves from the privacy issues and malicious content that we unknowingly download and use on our devices. Great apps from this dev
5 ★ good. when i open photo my photo changr colour. i use this app he found that app will affect my phone. Feedly the app shown so i uninstall it. now my photo look great. thank for the developer
5 ★ Quick & easy, and not something that you need to sign your soul away for. Thnx
5 ★ Almost instant scan, and I'm using a toaster. Does what it says
5 ★ All users of 2yr & older Android devices (3yr for Pixels) have bn abandoned by every manuf'r & use UNSECURABLE phones & Tablets, & almost none knows it; no Security Updates by any means. At least your efforts give me some confidence my (non-cellular i.e.: no "carrier") $400 Samsung S2 Tablet 8" (HD1920x1440) on now 3yr old OS, is still somewhat secure. May God prosper you (& keep you safe from today's pandemic).
5 ★ Works great! Your app found malware that Malwarebytes did NOT find! THANK YOU?
5 ★ gotta love simplistic freeware like these. thanks team!
2 ★ Tried it and it said my phone was clean and showed all sideloaded apps.
5 ★ Thank you. Clean bill of health (whew!😅). Wish I had something like this to catch gandcrab before they totally screwed up my laptop 🙄😒😤. Keep up the good work, guys. I'm throwin' some cash y'alls' way as soon as I get paid 👍
3 ★ More apps for ransomware protection.
1 ★ Need Advice I'm on new Android 9.0 and the won't open. I will raise my stars if I just open the app. I'm very interested in this Application!! TY
5 ★ QUICK CHECK FOR SUSPICIOUS APP; SHARE NO ADS
