Am still seeing the Avast icon after enabling AntoTheft. Have followed the manual and added my name, password and remote addresses.
Dear Customer,
If you see the avast! icon within your app tray/app manager after switching Anti-Theft to Stealth Mode, this is completely normal. The item you see in the app tray does not belong to avast! Anti-Theft but to avast! Mobile Security.
Only Anti-Theft goes invisible. The Mobile Security part is intended to stay visible because the nature of the security solution requires communication with the owner.
However, if you only want to use the invisible avast! Anti-Theft part of the suite, you can uninstall avast! Mobile Security and keep using Anti-Theft. This is possible because Free Mobile Security an Anti-Theft are installed as separate modules.
for further details please consult our manual available at:

it will help you understand the basics of the software.
give it a try - it’s short and easy to understand.
