Please note
• Data usage: The malware definition database updates at least once a day, requiring a small amount of data usage every time. Without this, the app will no longer identify the latest malware.
• Battery usage: There is an initial full scan of every app installed. This will take some time and cause a one-time peak in battery usage.
