Lookout question

[uscjoel]

Is Lookout slowing down anyone's Droid? I'm not for sure but I think it might be causing mine to lag.

I just downloaded and installed ...I will let you know what I see happening.

I have it on mine for a couple weeks now and haven't had any problems. Might do a battery pull to see if it helps.

Yes, in fact I've had it installed for several months now and it seems to slow the phone down terribly. Takes 10 seconds to draw the icons on the main screen Have you found any resolution yet?

I deleted mine, it slowed my Droid X down and it used battery. Since I took off it runs much better

I have a D1 with Lookout installed, and have not noticed any issues. I don't have it backup any of my contacts/pictures/etc. I only have it to scan apps I download and for the Find My Phone feature. Do you have a lot of stuff that it backs up? How often does it back up your data?

Also, Lookout shouldn't really affect the draw on your home screen - that's likely an issue with the home screen app (I've noticed ADW.Ex is pretty intense and the redraw is awful if I'm using several widgets, etc.)
