1. So c'mon NYC SECURE if you can't even protect my phone from this I don't feel like its worth giving a positive recommendation.Since new samsung update the app keeps deactivating! Also when I click for a manual scan it does nothing! Plus no response from developer after sending email! SMDH its been weeks and still no response from developer, will have to find another app! This app works on my tablet but not on my cell! What really pissesme off is that iam from NYC! Since no response from developer no choice but to uninstall!This app is a huge battery drainer.

7. That said I've had this installed on my last three phones and like the functionality it provides... But not the recent battery eating behaviour.It's okay for the job it does.
8. I finally went to battery usage and I saw that this app was Using I kid you not, 47% of my battery in the background and for nearly 12 hours.
