Are you looking for a free antivirus software that will give you reliable protection no matter what you’re online, be it surfing the web, online shopping, or downloading files? With G DATA Mobile Security Light for Android, you can sit back and relax when using your smartphone or tablet:  
✔ Real-time protection: The virus scanner automatically scans your entire device in the background. It blocks all kinds of threats, such as viruses, Trojans, and spyware – even when installing new apps.  
✔ Scan button: Tap once and Mobile Security will comb your device for possible threats and remove them.  
✔ Check app permissions: Easily detect if your apps are non-critical – or if you are being secretly spied on.  
✔ Simple and quiet: Mobile Security is incredibly easy to use – and has no effect on battery life or speed.  
✔ 100% Made in Germany: Our software adheres to Germany’s data protection laws and is guaranteed to contain no backdoors – neither for cybercriminals nor intelligence agencies.  
✔ 24/7 support: Our support team is also based in Germany. You can reach us at any time by phone or by e-mail, 24 hours a day, 365 days a year.  
  
30-day full version of G DATA Mobile Security for Android included!  
  
With G DATA Mobile Security Light, you get the full version with numerous extended premium features that you can test for 30 days at no charge and with no commitment. The full version offers the following features:  
  
► Flawless antivirus scanner with Advanced Scan  
Protect your smartphone or tablet against all types of malicious software, such as viruses, Trojans, or spyware. Even directly during the installation of a new app, the scan engine detects every threat, with no exceptions. Thanks to the automatically loaded signatures, your device remains protected on the move, even if there is no Internet connection for a short time.  
  
► Web protection  
Our web protection blocks dangerous phishing websites that try to grab sensitive data such as your passwords or bank details, meaning you can surf, bank, and shop online with peace of mind.  
  
► Rapidly find your lost devices  
You have misplaced your cell phone or it has been stolen? Locate it easily using our online platform, or trigger a beep to find it. If the battery runs out, the app sends its location so you can find your device even when it is turned off.  
  
► Anti-theft protection  
Protect your photos, videos, and messages from strangers. With G DATA Mobile Security for Android, you can remotely lock your lost device or automatically lock your device in case of unauthorized SIM card change to prevent thieves from using your device.  
  
► Protect apps with a PIN  
Protect selected apps with a PIN. This will let you be able to put your phone down without worrying about someone making expensive in-app purchases or viewing your confidential data.  
  
If you want to continue using the premium features, you can acquire a license for one year or one month with a convenient in-app purchase. When the trial phase automatically ends after 30 days, the Light version continues to provide full antivirus protection and shows you the permissions for all installed apps.  
  
Important: This app requires the device administrator for anti-theft protection and the accessibility features for web protection.
