When I was unable to UNinstall a virus with several different malware apps (wasted $$$) - but this one got the job done! *(and it was free)* I'm forever grateful. It's a little difficult to navigate through but worth figuring out since it successfully Uninstalled several viruses

app is good, even developer responds to any queries but don't understand why 7 trackers are included in the app even for pro version. got checked by Exodus privacy app found 7 trackers. immediately uninstalled. i have chamged to 5 star only because of the prompt response from the developer, Appreciate it. Moreover the developer confirmed all AD cookies are disabled once upgraded and the rest of the cookies are mentioned in the privacy policy. Cheers Sam for clarification.

aSpotCat is an essential Android security tool. It provides users a quick, reliable way to directly survey all apps word-for-word permissions, revealing an otherwise off-limits, or beyond-surface, "raw" view in to the user's Downloaded & System apps permissions capabilities in detail, and by category. For example, useful to identify connectivity vulnerabilities from wifi, network, & broadcasts permissions running rampant in all variety of apps. Totally worth it to support app for ad free use. 💛
