Ratings and reviews

With my high functioning autism and bad OCD. This is one of the best apps I have used. And the only one that does not annoy and bother me. It is straightforward and simple it protects you it scans things you download and looks at stuff that it thinks is malicious. That's all it does. After the initial setup, all you will have is a scanner. No bushit, no in your face fee and no ads. Plus you can upgrade to the better version whenever 👍

Sturdy app. I was wondering whether it was really performing, but then had my native Android OS alert me to a dangerous app I was installing and also had Bitdefender alert me at the same time, along with provided commentary. Alerts you to any app you install each time, letting you know whether it is safe, which your native OS doesn't do. Also does periodic random security scans. Overall great app, and don't think I saw any ads either!

It's looks good and is easy to use. The free version does the things it ses it dose. It bugs me that a majority of these scanners only scan installed apps and not the rest of the files stored. It will cause people to believe their safe even though they have downloaded a laced .pdf file. This app has the ability to scan the " other files " as well but is unavailable in the free version.
