Lovers of Android Smartphones have
always been aware that their precious handheld devices are at risk to nefarious
intruders. The security issue that comes to mind as far as this operating
system is concerned needs to be taken rather seriously. Although things are
definitely tighter than in previous years, we should still take preventative
actions should the worst case scenario rear its ugly head. With this sobering
thought in mind, we have gathered 3 of the best Android Smartphone security
applications for some unbiased reviews. We would recommend that you take a few
minutes out of your busy schedule to see of any of these can give you a better
night’s sleep!
Avast! Mobile Security https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.avast.android.mobilesecurity
Okay, we will get the security App ball
rolling with this development by those clever chaps over at Avast! The first
thing to stand out here is the fact that the whole App is totally free and
seems to have most bases covered from the very start! Indeed, Avast! Mobile
Security has an impressive array of tools that will suit most of your needs. The
essential ant-virus protection is here and it certainly will do a sterling job
of keeping the bugs well away from your data. And we love the anti-theft
feature that is based on an older application known as Theft Aware. This works
by allowing you to remotely wipe all sensitive data if your phone should ever
fall into the wrong hands. You can also lock down the SIM card, play a loud
siren, and block any USB debugging activities! If your device is rooted, you
will also be able to control network traffic via the firewall feature.
Lookout Security & Antivirus

Lookout is probably amongst the earliest
of all Android security applications and that means that it has got a handle on
exactly what needs to be done here. This very popular company have developed an
excellent security App that has the ability to actually backup your contacts
online and move them over to a separate device at your command. The anti-virus
features are as solid as you would expect and the malware detection
effectiveness is as good as it gets. According to the AV-Test report, this
application is the one that you should be looking for, and the free version has
more than enough oomph to kick most of those virus devils where it really
hurts! You can always spend $3 per month for the full version and then you can
use this bad boy on a pair of phones simultaneously as well as being able to
back up your phone calls and call history.
360 Mobile Securityhttps://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.qihoo.security
Our final Android Smartphone security
App is a real belter that is a newcomer to the stage, but that doesn’t mean it
can’t kick virus butt all over the place. In fact, this application could be
compared to dog security
brisbane style toughness without any issues. Try this one because it is
free and will wow you with its extra features!
3 Of The Best?
We reckon that is the case and we would
recommend any of this trio to make your Smartphone a far safer place to be!
