Ratings and reviews

Okay, this is a repost because for some reason my previous post does not show up (gee I wonder why? Sarc/off) it seems using a telus sim card has this app installed on your phone and you can only disable it. Use Universal Android Debloater to remove it. Youtube has tutorial videos you can follow along through all of the procedures

Don't want this app on my phone, but can't uninstall...only disable. This is NOT a system app, it's carrier bloatware.

This is clear cut spyware. Installed without permission spying on photos and audio. Really do you need access to photos to do system checks?

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.
