Although my government is a part of so called 'Friends of Syria' I know the. Their end is definitely near.Good luck to you and to the all Syrians. As you may remember from previous security reviews, this is a highly sought-after feature which certainly inspires confidence in an anti-theft solution. I dont know if it is safe for you to use Avast,but I know that I support brave Syrian Arab Army and President Bashar Al Assad in their fight against terrorist rats and scum from all over the world.
An extra handy feature, when installing updates, is the immediate option to install to root, essentially making Avast a system app and preventing it from being deleted or uninstalled. Theft Aware users will recognize this behavior from the good old days, as the TA Market app was just an installer. However, it's there because Anti-Theft, in fact, is a separate module (you can uninstall Avast and keep just Anti-Theft if you want), and updates to it are delivered independently of the main app. Users can set a variety of "protection behaviors" which will be triggered upon SIM card change, or when the device is marked as "lost." These include some fairly standard features like lock and siren, but Avast has added some new (and refreshing features) including forced data connection, and the ability to deny a thief access to USB debugging, program manager, and phone settings, which honestly seem a lot more practical than the basic protection behaviors found in other apps.Īnti-Theft's advanced settings menu includes an option to check for updates, which could be confusing. Avast has included many features in their anti-theft protection that I've been looking for in other apps for a while – namely, users can force a data connection (if rooted), and save Avast's settings in case of a data wipe.įirst off, Avast offers a ton of options for when your device falls into the wrong hands.
