Comments on Privacy Scanner (AntiSpy) Pro for Android
★★★★★
It's a good app, helps you to try to understand apps, the permissions, what they can do and how they work with others. I believe it's neat app weather your spy or trying to catch a spy !
★★★★★
The free version found a spy app hidden in my security app. I've used a
bunch of apps over the past year trying to find that bugger and I did a
factory reset! I was blown away when the free version located it. So, I
purchased the pro version because there is still something in my phone, a
bot or root thingy, it's my daughter, she's doing malicious stuff all over
my house, and I've been hospitalized twice. She would freeze my keyboard
before if I talked like this. It's wonderful! Many thanks to the
developers. I'm counting on you to get the rest of her trash off of my
phone. I have Android 7 so I can't use the camera blocker, but I'm a happy
woman, bless you Lighthouse! Free got 5 stars, when pro finds another it
will earn its 5th star. This isn't a short review but I want everyone to
know that finding that spyware installed on my phone meant the world to me.
★★★★★
I like this app. There is one major issue. A scan revealed that I am vulnerable because I have enabled installation from unknown sources. The option to change that setting is given, but the apps listed are checked as "not allowed." Perplexing! The app with this unauthorized special permission is never identified, which makes a change impossible. I even added the specific app to the ignore list in hopes of identification. This was ineffective. Frustration runs amok. Please advise.
★★☆☆☆
Free version works great but beware of pro. It would be fantastic if I got what I paid for. Instead, I paid for a broken app that does nothing but crash as soon as you open it. I've never been able to use the app, not once. Very disappointing.
★★☆☆☆
License verification not found I'm refunding and uninstalling as to avoid future issues. Just downloaded, began setting pro version as an experienced & satisfied free version user. From the beginning, I could not run anything because license message. (galaxy s5 sm-g900p: rooted: lollipop oa6 build: moar rom vers. 7). Please fix & I'll upgrade immediately and give it the 5 stars I know it deserves.
★★☆☆☆
Does not block any camera and tells you think free apps can do. The other 2 apps you need to download are obsolete. Getting a refund a.s.a.p.
★★☆☆☆
It crashes and has not opened once since buying the pro version. Very disappointing.
