User reviews
Multiple users report that Dobest Security appears pre-installed without consent and cannot be easily uninstalled. They express concerns over intrusive ads introduced in updates and cleaning features that either fail or delete important photos, causing data loss. Many users suspect the app to be malware due to hidden presence, invasive permissions, and unclear origins. Despite some claims of it working as advertised, overall user sentiment is highly negative, citing bloatware behavior, inability to remove it, and privacy concerns as key issues.
Pros
- Works as advertised (according to one user).
- Has features like cleaning cache and duplicate photos (though effectiveness is disputed).
- Claims to provide security-related functions such as virus detection and cleaning.
Cons
- App appears pre-installed without user consent and cannot be uninstalled.
- App contains ads, especially after updates, leading to user dissatisfaction.
- Cleaning functions delete important files or do not work properly (e.g., deleting WhatsApp pictures, failing to remove cache).
- App has suspicious permissions and behavior, with users considering it malware or bloatware.
- App is difficult to find or uninstall, being invisible in the app list and requiring complicated methods to disable.

Non-consentually pre-installed on phone. Is definitely bloatware that does nothing good.
