Serious question: is there a way to scan an Android phone to clear it of malware? My phone seems pretty jacked, tbh.
Malware bytes, great and the only feature that's locked behind premium is automated scanning( at least what I care about)
EDIT: just checked, it seems they are premium only now? I haven't used it in awhile as I haven't needed to, but on mobile at least you have to go premium, sucks I'll see if I can find something else
Thank you for checking.
Okay, I checked again, according to their description, after the free trial, you keep the free version, you just have to sign up for the premium trial and cancel, I just made a new account, I'll get back to you in 7 days
Yup, premium only with a 7 day trial. Worth it for one scan then immediately canceling, I suppose. That's what I just did.
Not really. Because of androids sandboxed nature "anti-virus" apps are not very effective and are mainly there to give you a false sense of security in exchange of some money.
Just assume every closed source application to be adversarial and don't bother installing it on a personal device.
