is this needed or a waste of space n time and battery

I've been running it for a couple of weeks.  I've heard pros and cons about it, mostly that there are no malware written for Android yet so it is not necessary.  I am always over cautious and It checks downloads and runs scans.  It does not seem to hog resources so IMHO it is just like an insurance policy you hope you don't have to collect on.  Also has a backup feature and phone finder.  Check it out on the net and decide.

Well at this moment Android is starting to become more and more popular and since the OS is a open source I would say it isnt a bad ideal to use a anti-virus because there is starting to be more evidence of hackers attempting to exploit the open source level of Android.   The need for it isn't as high as other OS but it isn't a bad ideal to stay with it.

I downloaded it right when I bought my phone over a month ago.  I agree and think of it as insurance, and I haven't had any problems with battery or performance drains from it.  I also like the phone finder feature it has.  Good all-in-one peace of mind app
