No icon even though i have it "on"

I used to have the avast icon in the tray, but maybe after the last update, i no longer have it. instead theres this small horizontal line in its place. Its still there even if i uninstall avast. When i reinstall avast, theres still no icon. Im on ICS. Any ideas? thanks for your time

You have three options:

  1. Orange icon.
  2. Gray icon.
  3. No icon at all.
    Can you check your avast! settings for this?

yes, i had it on gray icon before, and it was there. Now its gone no matter which option i choose. Also I didnt change any my tablet in any way that i can remember.

Maybe uninstalling and installing again…

yea, i did mention i already uninstall/reinstall a couple of times in my first post. I just find it strange the icon just vanished on my tablet a couple weeks ago.

Hi,
Would you check if AMS is still running?
Beside make sure that your status bar is not full enough to display AMS’s icon.

Avast mobile security is running, it says avast! is protecting you… Also, i have no other icons in the bar beside the time, battery and the avast icon that is not showing up.

Hi,

could I get a screenshot(s), please?

Im on ICS. Avast icon on “default”. I attached the screenshot. As you can see, there is a horizontal line in the notification area. Thanks for your help.

Hi,

if the line is still there after you uninstall Mobile Security, it must mean it’s not its icon. Don’t know why you have no icon though. You sure the icon is not there after you click on the notification are to show all of them?

Alright, i think it may be my tablets setting. I going to check the notification settings soon when i have time. Thanks for your replies.

Edit: got the icon back after changing my tablets settings

Great! I’m happy to hear it works ;).
