Ratings and reviews

I think it's a very good App, but just watch out what permissions you allow the App to have otherwise sometimes it'll remove some of your files and other files that are important to you.. That can include anything! I know that I've learned my lesson on trusting these types of thing's that are supposed to keep my files safe! It's definitely not smart enough to know what means more to me than what doesn't...

Most useless TELUS App by a Longshot. Tried on different devices & it always gives the most generic suggestions. Ex: says 'screen brightness is @ 96%, turn down to save battery' when the App itself turns it to full brightness during battery drain test but then returns it previous brightness anyway. 'Is my device being backed up ?' Yes already. 'Are my Photos Backing up ?' Yup. 'Turn on your Data Roaming or you can't use your device outside the TELUS Network', no thx. Unremovable Bloatware.

This was installed without my knowledge or permission by the store when I purchased my new phone. I do not want it on my phone. I can't find it listed in apps to unistall or in permissions to deny. I would not even know that it was installed if the Play Store wasn't asking to update it. How do I get it off my phone? It looks like spyware. Very unimpressed with mobile klinik.

What's new

Just like your phone, we need a tune up every couple of weeks. We've added some new tips and removed some bugs.
