Avast Mobile Security in detail
App Permissions :
Provides insights about installed apps and helps you understand your apps’ access rights, ad network integrations, and permissions.

Antivirus Engine :
Virus and malware scanner automatically scans for infected/dangerous apps and Trojans upon first use. Includes Web & file scanning for complete mobile protection, and also protects against spyware and viruses.

App Locker :
As mentioned above, there’s a stand-alone App Locker app, but except for its pattern-lock and fingerprint support, it’s no different from the built-in applock feature.

Web Shield :
Scans and blocks malware-infected links, as well as trojans, adware, and spyware (for privacy and safe Web browsing, e.g. Chrome) and also fixes mistyped URLs.

Wi-Fi Finder :
With unlimited cellular data plans mostly a thing of the past, the ability to find an open Wi-Fi network is valuable. Avast Wi-Fi Finder shows the location of networks near you. It can activate SecureLine VPN anytime you connect to Wi-Fi (which we strongly recommend).

Call Blocker :
Keep your privacy. Add phone numbers to your blacklist and block callers you don’t want contacting you.

Battery Saver :
Avast Battery Saver lets you fine-tune power profiles to maximize battery life, such as by shutting off Wi-Fi or Bluetooth. I tested a number of different power profiles, and all worked as expected. The location-based settings were especially useful, as my schedule is fairly unpredictable but my needs at specific locations are fairly predictable.

Wifi Security :
Check the security of each network and email, browse and make payments wherever you are.

Passwords :
The basic version of Password is free and includes secure encryption, syncing between devices, automatic form-fill and the ability to generate complex and unique passwords. The premium version costs $9.99 a year, but the only relevant additional feature is Password Guardian, which tells you if one of your accounts (Gmail, Amazon, etc.) has been hijacked. With Avast Passwords, you create a single highly secure master password, then enter the rest of your passwords into the app. From then on, you won’t need to remember anything but the master password.
