as a alpha stage app it's nice and design is very cool. but the scan information provided by the app is not detailed (no information at all! just scanned of apps). also we need an option to encrypt the keyboard button pressed in the browsers (while typing passwords, just like the Hitman pro app on windows). keep up the great work.
Long story short, I've installed this to test the tool, logged in to my account, went through the initial setup and started a scan. Scan reaches 100% but doesn't end, it keeps spinning and spinning. So I have a never-ending scan which prevents to actually use the APP and evaluate it properly. Force closing and reopen doesn't fix the issue nor does restarting.
Why does it pop up with a toast notification saying "no threats found" every single time an app update is installed in the background? These popups are nonstop. I don't need constant interruptions telling me there are no issues. Only show me a popup if there's an issue. This is a very poor user experience, and I'm uninstalling because it's so annoying.
