Try looking in Quarantine.
For future reference questions regarding mobile security should be in the Mobile forum section https://forum.avast.com/index.php?board=119.0

What is in the Avast For Mobile settings > Settings > Notifications & Alerts (you could also check the Activity log) ?
It shares data on detections on your mobile to improve overall protection for all users.
i just want to know the name of file it detected and deleted and if can the type of malware it detected
where can i found the info of the malware it detected
activity log doesn’t show the name of file it deleted
First - stick to one topic those trying to help are jumping around answering the same things, duplication of effort.
Second - read the answers/replies before posting, did you check the Notifications & Alerts as I suggested above.
Now please stick to the one topic.
what’s in notifications and alerts how it can help
i want to know the name of deleted file
Stick to one topic please, your other two have now been deleted since you can’t adhere to suggestions.
i am sorry but i’m really in need of urgent help and i’m new
please guide me how can i know which file was deleted and which type of malware it was
DavidR had advised you to check “Notifications and Alerts”, which should tell you what was deleted.
where it is i’m trying but can’t find
David i have checked notification and alerts but can’t find any option i’m sure somewhere there would be the record of file which was deleted but i don’t know how to see it
there’s something called “clipboard” can that be useful
If you open Avast app,
Touch the three lines Menu option top left,
Scroll down to My Statistics and tap.
Does that tell you anything?
You should have seen a Notification in the phone’s Notifications area of what Avast found and quarantined. That I believe is where others were telling you to look.
Clipboard is where you cut and paste content. e.g. save to clipboard. Maybe Avast found something bad saved in your clipboard.
activity log only says 1 problem found and the time when it found it doesn’t show the name of file which it detected as malware that’s what i want to know
it only says 1 problem found and the time it doesn’t show the name of file it deleted
I am wondering if you just has a clipboard cleaner notification that spooked you.
I am not sure myself where to locate a quarantined file on AMS.
Actually some days ago i scanned my device it detected one file as malware i clicked on resolve but now i want to know which file it detected as malware i’m worried can any malware file hack our personal photos and send it to any hacker
