Ratings and reviews

I did not download this app or enable it, but lo and behold, there it is, with full permissions to access and change anything it wants on my device. No option to completely uninstall. Utterly useless and suggests things I already know. I'd give zero stars if I could.

Parasitic app - unable to delete, never wanted it. How is Telus forcing this onto my device, when I bought it straight from. Samsung?

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...

What's new

Just like your phone, we need a tune up every couple of weeks. We have many of the same features you love and new features to discover.
