About this app

About
Free basic anti-virus protection for mobile devices running Android OS 4.4 — 13.
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

Dr Web is one of the older antivirus apps and anti-malware apps. It has a decent set of features, including quick and full scans, protection from ransomware, a quarantine space, and even stats. Along with that, it has good anti-theft features, call and SMS filtering, URL filtering, parental controls, a firewall, and more. I use it along side of AVG Antivirus it works very well together. I don't use it a lot once a week I run a full scan that's about it .

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.

The app is great at protecting devices from viruses, BUT the scans (express & full) take a very long time to run & complete. It shouldn't take 15+ minutes for a express scan or over a hour for a full scan, when many other anti-virus apps can run full complete scans of devices in a very tiny fraction of the time that this app takes. If the scan times were cut way down to just a tiny fraction of time to run full complete scans on the devices, I would give it 5 stars.
