Since new samsung update the app keeps deactivating! Also when I click for a manual scan it does nothing! Plus no response from developer after sending email! SMDH its been weeks and still no response from developer, will have to find another app! This app works on my tablet but not on my cell! What really pissesme off is that iam from NYC! Since no response from developer no choice but to uninstall!

Same as others are reporting, over the last few months the has started drain in ng my battery, as of this morning this app was responsible for 44% of battery usage in the last 24 hours. That said I've had this installed on my last three phones and like the functionality it provides... But not the recent battery eating behaviour.

Was pretty good for awhile, but suddenly, it began draining my battery and informing me that the app was causing frequent problems to the stability of my phone. I want to keep it, but until it changes, I simply have to uninstall it for now.

The app suddenly started eating up the battery in July 2022. I uninstalled and reinstalled. 3 days later I discovered it hasn't done a security check since reinstalled and it won't do a manual check. Something went wrong with this app in July. Please fix.

This app is a huge battery drainer. I noticed very decreased battery life in my Google pixel 6 pro. I finally went to battery usage and I saw that this app was Using I kid you not, 47% of my battery in the background and for nearly 12 hours. I checked back a hour or so late and I saw that it went down to 40%. It's crazy because the other highest percentage being used by an app was just a mere 3%. If you are experiencing a problem with the battery life on your phone this app may be why.

Sept 2019 version was telling me that the encrypted private network that I'm on is insecure. July 2022, app is using more than 50% of my battery each day, doing thousands of device scans.

Excellent app, even though we may not be 100% secure, it gives you a peace of mind to know that someone is out there looking out for us to protect us from cyber crime. Thak you NYC.

seems like useful, well designed app, but didn't get the chance to use it,the Terms & Conditions were very long, complicated and lots of legal jargon, just uninstalled it instead. Seems like an awesome tool to have other wise though.
