Malwarebytes Mobile Security Review

There are plenty of smartphone security apps out there. This makes it quite difficult to know which one will work perfectly for your device. I like Malwarebytes Security: Virus Cleaner and Anti-Malware for my phone. It offers everything I need. This review will tell you why I choose this phone security app over others.

Interface

Malwarebytes Security is an app with an easy-to-understand interface that displays information concerning the status of your Google Android smartphone or tablet security. The interface is simple and clean to ensure you do not face any challenges. This Android app also has a streamlined design. One thing that makes the design so effortless to use is that it has a drop-down menu on the top left that gives you access to settings and general information about your apps. In addition to this, all the different options like scan and update are conveniently located at the bottom of the screen. 10/10.

Features 

This security tool has a number of features. First, it features robust virus protection which protects your device from ransomware, malware, unauthorized surveillance and other cyber threats. In addition to this, it features a malware detector that identifies every app that has access to your personal information and keeps the information private. The app also features automatic antivirus database updates which save you the hassle of doing that manually. Last but not least, it features a security audit which identifies all junk files and cleans them to free up space on your device.

Malwarebytes Security is only compatible with Android mobile phones and tablets. 10/10.

Performance

This Google Play app for phone security has decent performance. It takes about 13 seconds to complete a full scan and only uses up about 0.7% of your power during the scan. This is very good compared to other antivirus apps on the market. However, when you use the app for the very first time, it will take longer than 13 seconds. The first time I used it, it took about 6 minutes to complete one, which is still low compared to other apps. The recent bug fixes have also really improved this app's performance and have made it faster. 10/10.

Pricing

Malwarebytes Security is a free-to-download app that doesn’t have any in-app purchases. However, there is a premium version that allows you to have automatic protection features. This is for users who would like to upgrade their mobile phone security to the max.

The Verdict

Malwarebytes is a reliable antivirus Android app that offers your phone maximum security without all the bells and whistles found in most anti-virus apps. It provides you with what you need from malware protection to junk clean-up, it is fast, and it does not waste your battery power. It may not have a lot of features, but it is very useful for protecting your phone. I would recommend it to anyone who uses the Internet often, shares and receives a lot of files from different users or simply wants to ensure their phone is protected from cyber threats, viruses and unauthorized access among other things. You can get the latest version of this leading security application on Google Play Store. You’ll be glad you made the decision.
