Quality antivirus for Android?

[ngt]

Been streaming nba games and may have picked something up. What's good out there or what would you suggest? Besides stopping streaming nba games, lol

Zero. Android doesn't have virii.

What makes you think you may have picked up a virus?

There are apps like AVG, Malwarebytes, etc. but they're not going to be very effective on Android unless you're deliberately trying to get a virus just to test it out

While browsing or on forums, where i never had this issue before, i randomly get this new pop up window. It says congratulations, you are the winner select ok to see your prize or something like that. I first saw it when opening a link on Reddit, but now it comes up a few times a day at random.

You installed an app that is doing that. It's not a virus. What's the last app you downloaded?

No, i don't have games besides my old purchased nes emulator, but I've had that for a few phones. Last thing i downloaded was Google home, but it happened before that. Is there a way to find the app doing it? Like an air push type app?

 

[mountainbikermark]

Yes there are a few air push detector apps.
You say this only happens in your browser? What browser? If Chrome there's a thread about the same situation you're experiencing I read recently on this forum but don't remember its title. It's some setting in Chrome that you have to enable that blocks those ads.
This isn't the one I was thinking of but it's similar with same solution.

Why am i getting this? and no i don't go to "adult sites" unless reddit, nbastreams is considered adult.

I downloaded avg and it says nothing is wrong.

I tried malwarebites and it wants me to uninstall Where'sMyDroid.

Thoughts?

Finding your phone is baked into Android. You don't need that. Google: Android Device Manager. Login and find your phone. Couldn't be easier.

Didn't know that. Thanks!

What do you think about that Google virus pop-up?
