The scanners for viruses are just one piece of the puzzle when it comes down to protecting your phone. You should also consider other options, like parental controls, anti-theft, and blocking of text and call calls. You’ll have to select an antivirus that doesn’t place the device under stress and doesn’t use a lot of power.

Bitdefender is an excellent option, since its security capabilities have been confirmed by independent lab tests and our own internal testing. It also has other features, such as cameras that can take an image of anyone trying to hack into your phone. The free version offers adequate protection, and the monthly subscription cost is quite affordable.

AVG is another good option with a great detection rate and a raft of features that make it a top choice in our tests. It’s a well-known player in the field of security and it was able to score top scores in both our hands-on and lab tests for Android malware protection. It has a robust antitheft function that allows you to locate the phone remotely, remove and lock your phone in the event of theft.

Quick Heal Another popular app, runs on the Avast engine (Avast bought AVG in 2016). It’s a good all-round security suite that includes virus scanning, ad blocking, a junk cleaner and a RAM boost that can improve your device’s performance. It also includes an account manager for passwords and dark web monitoring tools.
