So today this new icon appears and it's this safeguard which I didn't know was on my phone. I don't exactly know what this app actually does because history says it's been on my phone before January. Also I'm not happy with this phone most of the time. Most apps don't work, gps doesn't work. Really the only things that work is the 911 call button, I have service when nobody else has but don't have service when everyone else has and this phone is durable. Sonim and att refuse to help out.

my sonimxp8 is terrible, I'm looking to get a new phone even though this one is only 6months old. Plenty of glitches, trouble connecting to service provider, dropping apps, dropping phone usage, etc. The construction of the phone is awesome though, minus the extremely delayed & annoying camera.

Works as described, I have had my xp8 since 2018, I'm really not sure why it's been given 1 star by people who simply don't use it, every phone comes with apps you won't want or need (remember when apple give everyone the U2 album forcefully when nobody wanted it?) Uninstall and move on don't give the app itself a bad review
