With the increase of ransomware, crypto-mining and other attacks, hackers are taking on Android users with the utmost ferocity. Millions of dollars have been snatched away, identities compromised and computing power was given away to cybercriminals over the last few years. Fortunately, an antivirus software for Android can guard your devices from all types of threats. Choose an application that is user-friendly, simple to install, and includes additional features, such as system optimization tools, theft protection, and parental controls.
Avast Mobile Security is a well-known name in the world of internet security. Its Android version has a full suite of protection with a free version and affordable subscription plans that offer complete protection for your mobile device/s, PC and laptop/tablet/computer. Its malware detection is top-notch with minimal impact on performance. It comes with a call-blocker, VPN and junk cleaner. It also has the photo vault, WiFi network security, anti-theft, RAM booster and web shield.
Kaspersky Mobile Antivirus offers absolute security for a reasonable cost. Its malware-detection capabilities work well with a low battery drain. It also includes a call blocking feature, Wear OS support, as well as other extras. The only issue is that it’s not as user-friendly as many of its rivals, and it does not offer a money-back guarantee.
AhnLab, from South Korea, is another great choice. It scored near-perfect in my labs and hands-on tests but has a less intuitive interface. It’s not as active on social media and community forums as some of the other apps on this list. According to AV Test and AV Comparatives it has high detection rates for Android malware.
