How do I uninstall Anti-Theft?
« on: December 10, 2013, 05:53:38 PM »
I thought I had uninstalled all of the Avast Mobile Security .... including Anti-theft.  But Anti-theft appears to still be on my phone.   I cannot find it under my apps.   I even tried installing Titanium backup, which says my phone is not rooted, so Anti-Theft is not there.

My avast account shows everything is uninstalled except Anti-Theft.   It showed Anti-Theft as disabled.  So I enabled it, hoping that way I could find it and uninstall it.

No Luck.

Please tell me how I can get all avast apps off of my phone.

Thanks.

Hi,

THANK YOU.   I followed your instructions and found 'Update Agent' and uninstalled it.

But under my devices for my phone it still shows as installed and on.

I would like to know how to uninstall this app too.
This is just in case I find an issue with it later on.

Are there any instructions for this?

Thanks.
