Hi all :slight_smile:
Thanks for this awesome app :smiley:
hope I will not need it :smiley:
Well, after I installed the free version, I wanted to enable the root access, (and of course I am rooted, 4.1.2, Xperia SP) so checked it, it asked to download the root version from Google Play, it actually did and before installation it asked to uninstall the original installation, I uninstalled, reinstalled “the root” one and restarted the phone and now the app doesn’t open, it tells:
“This device is already protected !! uninstall Anti-Theft before installing this version.”
I uninstalled the current one, cleared the cache, restarted the phone and reinstalled it and the same message with “Check Again” message :confused:
Any Ideas ?
Thank you :slight_smile: :slight_smile:

Found that the installed avast is named as “my name” on the device, with “Android” icon.
and the app with the avast icon should have been uninstalled :slight_smile:
Just shared in case of anyone faced the same issue.
