Didn't get asked for custom name when setting up anti-theft

[Greenie]

I may have made a mistake when setting up the anti-theft, but it didn't ask me for a custom name.  And now it is set up, I have no idea what that name is, should the phone get stolen.  How do I find it out, or even change it?

The default installation (in the actual version) uses "avast! Anti-Theft" as the name.
Next version, it would ask the user for a name in both standard and custom installations.

In the custom installation, the first name given is also "avast! Anti-Theft".
If you don't change it - randomically or by a given name - you'll be using the default.

Thanks for your reply.  So how do I change the name now?  I can't seem to find where to do that.

Thanks for your reply.  So how do I change the name now?  I can't seem to find where to do that.

The only way would be uninstalling.
Then installing avast! Mobile Security again. Install the Anti-Theft with another name.

Ok, thanks for your reply.  I will try that.

For non root users, yes, it was removed.
