AVG Antivirus 2017 for Android

AVG anti-virus 2017 for Android

It's a currently hot topic, since Google is already up and running to protect your system, it's about time! meanwhile, AVG antivirus 2017 is a good alternative that is not very intrusive with our Smartphone, it offers us two versions, a free one that is not bad at all, and a paid one (€ 8,49) with some extra functions. In the two versions of AVG we have five visible functions: Analysis, Protection, Privacy, Performance and ANTI-THEFT, in addition, a drop-down in the upper left with suggestions and options.

 

From the options menu, the application shows us the most outstanding functions or those most used by users, from here you can manage all the notifications related to the application and what information we want it to show us, in this case the application shows a lot of information because the version chosen for the Review is the paid version, the free version is somewhat more concise.

We are going to break down all the categories with the help of some images so that you can see that it is quite difficult not to find some detail of the application since it has very simple and intuitive menus.


Protection


From protection we can do a quick analysis, check if we have an intruder in our Wi-Fi network (only paid version), the threats found and neutralized, but not deleted from the device, decide how often the analyzes are to be reproduced, change the sensitivity analysis and if we have a memory card installed, we can also include it in the analysis; The analysis is very complete, it has anti-malware, anti-spyware and, of course, it has a constantly updated database with all new possible threats.

 


Privacy


The privacy option allows you to block everything, from applications with a pin, to unwanted calls, with a record of all of them so that you can identify them, in addition to having a hidden space on your phone with photos or applications that you do not want someone to see accidentally. All this information appears in bullet form, but we also have a list menu just below.


Performance


Performance, the key to the perfect ecosystem for our Smartphone, when you decide to control your battery you must be careful, the application allows us to modify many parameters, and we can make the phone not flow normally, the performance option allows us to lighten the load a bit. speed of our mobile and control the use of data for months with a good graph.


ANTI THEFT


I think it is the best part or perhaps for some the most attractive, ANTI-THEFT in case of theft, it allows you to take photos with the front camera (camera trap) if someone tries to access your phone, you can sound an alarm even if the phone be silent, and finally delete your information remotely; To access these functions, the program will send you by SMS or by email the commands that you have to use once the service is activated.

 

 

 


Conclusion


I agree, the trial version chosen costs € 8,49 but, to be a single payment with constant updates and a wide range of possibilities to manage everything, or almost all of our phone, it is very good, in addition, you have the function ANTI-THEFT, is easy to use and is very fast to act. The truth is, I buy it.
