Avira Free Android Security App for Android Smartphones

Avira Free Android Security can remotely locate, lock or erase an Android phone anywhere in the world to maintain security. It can even make the phone ‘scream’ to help you find it hiding behind the couch cushions. For business users and families with lots of phones, Avira Free Android Security comes with Avira Android Web Console (a browser based control center designed for managing the security functions), which lets you manage up to five phones remotely. In addition to the locating and locking features, the Web Console lets you handle behind-the-scenes chores like activating/deactivating phones, remotely checking phone activity, current battery level, device model number and device IMEI number. Never again will you need to ask someone to read the IMEI number out loud to you.

Have you ever felt lost after forgetting your smartphone at home? If so, then you already know that your Android is worth much more than the sum of its parts. This constant companion keeps some of your most important data at your fingertips. That’s why you need to be prepared in case your device ever leaves your side. After all, your smartphone may be replaceable, but what about its contacts, messages, photos and private accounts? Install Avira Free Android Security to protect your data and increase your chances of being reunited with your device.
