## Description

Mobile Security & Antivirus delivers award-winning Android protection with advanced AI scanning that detects malicious apps, ransomware, spyware and privacy leaks. Web Guard uses a secure local VPN to block phishing and dangerous links in browsers and apps. Fraud Buster scans SMS and app notifications (including AI-generated messages) to identify and block scams. Core tools include Pay Guard Mobile for safe banking, Wi‑Fi Checker, Memory Booster, app lock, Secret Snap, and Parental Controls — all backed by Trend Micro’s decades of security experience.

The app requires permissions such as Accessibility, VPN Service, background operation, draw-over apps, Location, SMS & Notifications, and Device Administrator to provide full protection and real-time alerts. Trend Micro is committed to user privacy — see the Trust Center privacy notice for details. Ideal for users who want comprehensive malware protection, anti-phishing, scam and spam blocking, and family-safe controls on Android devices. Start a free 14-day trial to evaluate full protection.
