Overview

Features & Capabilities

Browse, shop and open links with more confidence. Gridinsoft Web Protection helps block known phishing pages, scam shops, malware domains and suspicious websites before your phone connects to them.

A fake delivery message, a convincing login page or a too-good-to-be-true offer can lead to a dangerous website. Add a layer of protection that works in the background while you use your Android phone.

BLOCK DANGEROUS CONNECTIONS
• Phishing protection helps you avoid fake sign-in pages designed to steal passwords.
• Scam protection helps stop connections to known fraudulent shops and deceptive websites.
• Malware and suspicious-domain blocking helps reduce exposure to dangerous destinations.
Protection checks system DNS requests from browsers and apps, including requests made in the background.

POWERED BY GRIDINSOFT THREAT INTELLIGENCE
Gridinsoft's own website reputation intelligence powers the protection. Threat lists are updated on our servers, so your app uses the current published protection policy without waiting for an app update.

SEE YOUR PROTECTION AT WORK
View recent blocked activity, threat categories and activity trends. Receive notifications when dangerous domains are blocked, then open the details to understand why. Repeated requests are grouped to keep alerts useful. Activity can include connections made by background apps.

CHECK A WEBSITE BEFORE YOU TRUST IT
Unsure about a link or online shop? Open Gridinsoft's website checker from the app to look up its reputation in your browser. Explore detailed security reports for blocked domains to make more informed decisions.

SIMPLE TO USE, EASY TO CONTROL
Turn protection on with one tap after setup and Android's permission prompt. A clear status shows when protection is active or needs attention. Turn it off whenever you need to. Domain lookups travel to Gridinsoft over encrypted HTTPS.

TRY IT ON YOUR PHONE
Start with a free 14-day trial, with no payment card or Gridinsoft account required. The trial starts when protection is enabled. Existing customers can sign in with their Web Protection access.

To continue after the trial, choose an annual Google Play subscription for 1 or 3 devices. You can purchase without creating a Gridinsoft account and optionally save access with Google afterward. Prices and renewal terms are shown before purchase. Subscriptions renew automatically unless canceled in Google Play; uninstalling does not cancel renewal. Restore purchases with the purchasing Google Play account. Restoring guest access on a phone replaces its previous guest installation.

HOW PROTECTION WORKS
The app uses Android's VpnService to filter domain lookups and explains the processing before you enable it. It does not inspect webpage contents, hide your IP address or change your location. It uses Android's VPN slot and cannot run alongside another active VPN. Apps with their own encrypted DNS may bypass protection.

Requires Android 10 or later and an internet connection. Protection reduces exposure to known dangerous domains; it cannot identify every threat or guarantee that an unblocked website is safe.
