Hi,
I had an update from Google Play for the first time for my Avast Mobile Security premium.
The sliders to activate app locking, for call/sms blocking are not sliding to ON position.
Also, when I tap “app permissions” yellow icon from main menu, I see the list of apps but cannot do anything with them; tapping an app does nothing; no errors neither.
I have given Avast Mobile security phone admin rights and app usage rights. I also uninstalled Avast MS and re-installed it - same issue.
I saw several posts about these issues but nothing new and no solutions.
about the sliders in App locking and Call filter - by any chance, do you use some kind of “overlay” app, like CF.Lumen, F.lux etc.? Because the sliders are tap-jacking protected and won’t work while there’s some overlay over them.
Yes, I use Lux for my screen brightness control.
But I have used Lux and Avast together successfully until you came out with version 5. version 4 or older worked fine for years.
That’s because now we’re more strict with this. I’m a bit torn about compromising the security in favor of better usability, but we’ll think about what we can do with it.
