Avast Newbie: Installed on my phone but never set up PIN

Hello,

I have tried this several times but it seems consistent. I installed avast mobile security from the Google Play store. It installed successfully as far as I can tell. But when I try to enter the application it asks me for a 4-6 digit PIN and says “PIN Recovery not set”. The problem is that it never asked me for a PIN during installation so I don’t know how to find the PIN.

I’m sure it is something obvious but I have not been able to find a similar situation in the forums.

Thank you.

did you have avast! Anti-Theft installed before? AMS takes up the Anti-Theft password.
