Comments on Mobile Security & Antivirus for Android
★★★★★Nico (Malbulga Karmayahyah)· Jun 2, 2026
This is by far the most extensive antivirus/mobile security app and appears to run fine on this mobile
★★★★★Sandy Decquir· Jun 26, 2026
I have been using Trim Micro's house call since the early '90s. It is the best antivirus protection available in my opinion, and Trend Micro always has been. They never let me down.
★★★★★Rachael Crowther· May 8, 2026
Best antivirus I've used yet. Have this installed on home comp as well. Very easy to switch your subscription between devices ie had a temp mob while original was in being repaired & was able to use on temp mob & able to switch back to original mob = protected all the time. Highly recommend!!! EDIT: Still ❤️ this app!! Renewed every year. Long-standing customer here.

I have already bought a license for my PC, when I tried to install this app from the Play store and add my license number to upgrade to premium features I have already paid for, I click the link to "sign in/ enter license number", nothing happens. I think it is a scam to get me to pay again for something I have already purchased. I uninstalled the app. I am also considering changing my virus protection provider.
★☆☆☆☆Sabrina Carmant· May 7, 2026
A new random annoying popup anytime you open any app that involves shopping and it won't go away. Suddenly my at home secured network that never had an issue before is now "unsecured" according to this app, and I need to get their vpn! I already have a vpn and my network is secured, so its just lying. I added my network as a trusted connection, I restarted my phone, nothing works. The popup won't go away. I'm uninstalling. If this continues I'll cancel my subscription.

It is decent, but you shouldn't have to pay for a subscription to see virus scan results if it has limited features for the unpaid version. An unpaid virus scanner app at least lets you scan your phone from the app and see the status of your phone's safety... subscriptions usually are for the automatic scan and deep scan stuff...but I'm sure the developers of the app knew that already, you're just little piggies for money, and I get it!
