![]() ![]() I show notification like this in Android: private void showMatchesNotification(String message) Pushing notification using Firebase is working fine. When I push from server, it shows notification in status bar in Android device. In my app, I am doing push notification using Firebase. ![]() ![]() But it also is a resource hog on some phones as reported to me from several of my friends.I am developing an Android app. This program rated #1 in the above-mentioned testing because it actually scans the complete code of every program not just the signatures. It is a good program and most highly rated for protection but it has absolutely no tech support and is a beta so it has issues. In a recent testing by security software rating outfit it rated very high. though again I believe there is a free version with less options. It is also a subscription service of about $20.00/yr. I am currently using BitDefender a program from a company owned by Mircrosoft. though there is a free version with fewer options. It is a very good program and is a subscription service of about $20.00/yr. But the company that owns Vipre spun the mobile app off into a separate company which has slow tech support and the mobile app tends to take up a lot of phone resources. I have used Vipre on my phones and tablets because I have used it for years on my PCs. Question is what kinds of infections are you afraid of and from where? Are you side loading applications to avoid paying for them or for root functionality type stuff? Imo the greater risk is in making poor web surfing choices or trying to install shady applications to avoid paying for things (since typically more viruses and malware are found this way). The key for me is researching the background of applications and their reviews to determine if I can trust them and giving strong consideration to the permissions they ask for. I root all of my devices and install third party applications all of the time. Installing such products brings some functional benefits sure (Cleanup tools for example) but the increased overhead they produce in terms of processing resources and battery consumption isn't worth it. Mobile devices are processor limited as it is and given that they are mobile and cloud centric I see no reason to protect mine. Personally I don't believe in antivirus for android period. ![]()
