[QUOTE="bazang, post: 1120155, member: 114717"] AV for Android are notoriously unreliable (AV Test and any other Android tests are not a very good predictor of real-world protection). Android AV offer gimmicks that are not needed and provide a false sense of security to the phone user that results in them doing stuff that they should not and the AV cannot protect them against anyways. AV-Test's job is not to inform users of all the times that AV fail to protect users under real-world conditions. The AV-Test test results are a marketing tool and not a reliable indicator of software protections. They will all tell the user "You are protected" when, in fact, that statement is untrue or does not meet the user's actual expectations. [/QUOTE]
