Are you distributing the tools through the Google store ?

I do not understand that question. Are you suggesting my phone has been turned into some sort of bot and pushing infected versions of this tool into the store?

Hi David, the problem might come from your phone vendor. It is possible there is some spyware preinstalled in your device firmware.
Are you able to extract the detected app and send it to me, if I give you the step-by-step manual?
We would send it to our virus lab, who would decide, whether it is false positive, or a real malware.
