Free Lookout Mobile Security for Android 5.1

Antivirus prevention isn't anywhere near as necessary for Android devices as it is for Windows computers just yet. As Android's market share grows, though, so will the attacks. More importantly for the here and now, Lookout Mobile Security provides key security options that are unique to the mobile market. Along with the antivirus and anti-malware tech, there's a lost and stolen phone locator service, an application privacy adviser, and a backup service.

Lookout Mobile Security for Android 5.1

Lookout Mobile Security includes:

Anti-Virus and Security
  • Block viruses, malware and spyware
  • Scan every app you download
  • Get virus protection against the latest threats with automatic antivirus updates
Find My Phone
  • Now you never have to ask the question, “Where’s my Droid?”
  • Find your lost or stolen phone by locating it on a map
  • Activate a loud alarm to find your phone nearby, even if it is on silent or vibrate
  • Lookout can remotely turn on GPS, so you can find your phone even if GPS is turned off
  • Log-in to myLookout.com from any web browser to quickly find your phone (even if GPS is off) with the best free Find My Phone app, as seen on TV!
Backup and Restore
  • Securely back up your contacts to the web
  • Restore contacts to an existing phone
  • Access all your backup data securely online at myLookout.com
  • Lookout is certified by TRUSTe so you can rest assured your privacy and your data is protected
Lookout's interface is helpfully simple to navigate. At the top right of the app, a status notification tells you if you've got security problems or if, "Everything is OK." Below that, the four main features are presented as buttons. Tap one to reveal a button that will run the feature, if it's the Security scan, the Privacy scan, or the Backup.

The Missing Phone option is less intuitive. It merely tells you to go to myLookout.com to locate, lock, scream, or wipe your phone. The scream option sets off a high-pitched alarm to annoy phone thieves and alert others. Of course, you're not going to require any of those options if you know where your phone is. But it's a good reminder that the feature is there, even if it's only for Web use.

You can access Lookout from the app or a notification bar icon that also informs you of your status. The Settings hardware button reveals a reasonable although not robust selection of options to configure, presented in the standard and familiar Android style.

Installation
Lookout's installation is smooth and simple. The free account registration requires a valid e-mail address, which is important because several of the app's features require communication with the user.

As a security app, it's not surprising that Lookout will grab with some fairly deep hooks into your Android device. Lookout has permission rights to your personal information, messages, location, network communication, accounts, storage, phone calls, hardware controls, and system tools.
