Virus Definitions Update Failed / Mobile Security & Virus Cleaner

[Tereza V.]

Thanks, this is a known bug, fixed in version 6.16.

The definitions have actually been up-to-date all the time, only the date in the brackets is wrong. The important number is the first one - "190218" means that your latest virus def database was updated on 18/2/2019 (today).

Version 6.16 has been released to 100% of users by now, so you should be able to fix the problem by simply updating your Avast Mobile Security app.

Thank you so much for the fix! I'm so happy that it was an easy resolve for me (and hopefully others).

to CHRIS248: Google Play Store > Menu (three lines in the upper-left corner) > My apps & games > find Avast Antivirus on the UPDATES tab and tap "UPDATE".
