Did you add both sims to the trusted list?

First of all make sure you are logged to the Google account you used for the purchase of the Pro (use the link posted by Asyn). Please let me know, if the reinstall doesn't help.

Hi, 944 is a Google Play Store error people face while updating the app. It helps to clear the Google Play data (your device Settings > Applications > Google Play Store > Clear data and cache), and check your Internet connection.

I have the same problem. My subscription to Avast Mobile Security Pro is current until Nov (according to Google Play), but on my Android phone and tablet, Avast has stopped recognising this and no longer supports app locking, plus it keeps pushing adverts at me and keeps inviting me to upgrade to Pro. Restarting the device does not help; disconnecting from, and signing back into, my Avast account does not help. I assume this is an Avast cockup, but this is the second day of the problem.

Hi Teraza..

Good afternoon, after uninstalled and reinstalled on Saturday, it's became Pro version and only on Sunday it's asked to upgrade again. Now I can confirm that the the reinstalling process can only temporarily solve the issue..

One thing I notice is, because I have 2 sim cards 1 is Thai and 1 is Hong Kong and I paid to subscribe for Avast in Thai baht..

Once reinstalled it show asking (in Thai baht) for upgrade for 1 second and then switch to Pro version.. The day after it's asking for upgrade and permanently showing ads and asking for upgrade, "ALL in HONG KONG dollar" is the software also checking the location and currency, since I am now living in Hong Kong(using Hong Kong Sim card) but subscribed during my stay in Thailand with Thai sim card.. Please help !!!
