About this app

About
Free basic anti-virus protection for mobile devices running Android OS 4.4 — 14.
Features and advantages of the protection components
Anti-virus
• Quick or full file system scans, as well as custom scans of user-specified files and folders.
• On-demand file system scans;
• Neutralises encryption ransomware: malicious processes are terminated even if a device is locked; lockers not yet present in the Dr.Web virus database are blocked; data remains intact, eliminating the need to pay criminals a ransom.
• Detects new, unknown malware thanks to the unique Origins Tracing™ technology.
• Moves detected threats to the quarantine from which isolated files and applications can be restored.
•Minimal impact on system performance.
• Economises traffic due to the small size of the virus database updates, which is particularly important for users whose mobile device plans have usage limits.
•Detailed anti-virus operation statistics.
• A convenient and interactive widget for launching a scan from the device desktop.

Important

Anti-virus Dr.Web Light alone is not enough to protect your device from all types of modern-day threats. This version lacks important components, including the Call and SMS Filter, the Anti-theft and the URL filter. To protect your mobile device from all types of cyberthreats, use the comprehensive protection product Dr.Web Security Space for Android

I hadn't even used the app yet and had to delete it, which was a shame. The notification made me feel alarmed as the icon looked like something was wrong with my phone, and despite dismissing the notification, it came back within a few minutes, which feels harassing.

Perfect UI/UX. I'm a technical user, and I love the very simple UI, the ability to manually update the signatures, the conservative use of notifications, the ability to scan only apps, only files, or both, the options to detect (or not detect) adware and riskware… Simply great. EDIT: Please make dark theme automatic, stop inhibiting sleep when scans end, and add an additional scan of only recently installed or updated apps. Thank you

The BEST free av for Android. I trust it with any downloaded app. Custom scanning, constant updates, simple and easy interface. If and when it does shut off, just keep the widget on and click, you're covered when installing new things. If you don't feel 100%, scan online with virus total. Everytime I do, it's clean just like Dr web stated. Also saved me from a few bad installs.
