Anti-Theft "not installed"

I have just installed Avast Mobile and Anti-Theft on my Android phone. The Anti-Theft icon shows a circle with a line through it and if I tap the icon I see a “App isn’t installed” message.

I set up an avast account etc…some setting somewhere that I have missed?

You seem to have installed Avast Mobile Premium. Within it, you need to install Avast Anti-Theft.

Hi

I use both these Avast products too and have found the same issue that my phone shows the anti-theft is not installed. However on checking my online Avast account, it shows my device does have anti-theft installed, so I’m guessing it’s supposed to show it like this. Maybe for security reasons if someone takes your phone and checks the apps, they won’t know anti-theft is installed. I don’t have the Premium versions installed, only the free versions at the moment.
