[QUOTE="HarborFront, post: 1041681, member: 55987"] Generally, free AV don't have real-time protection, web protection etc. You download or install an apk and it'll perform the scan. On-demand scan is there though Real-time protection, web protection and other bells and whistles come with the paid version Exception is the free Sophos Intercept-X which has real time protection, web protection and some other features Note that web protection will depend on the browser(s) supported. Keeping an app running in real-time or Always-on drains battery power. The phone do gets a bit warm if you use Sophos Intercept-X [/QUOTE]
