Advanced Mobile Care

ADVANCED MOBILE CARE GIVEAWAY REVIEW

So there I was just browsing my Twitter feed, when out of the blue I get a request to review an app.  First time for everything right? Well, I agreed without hesitating because I love helping app developers get attention to their apps.  So after getting the details and ironing out some details with fact checking and all that jazz I downloaded Advanced Mobile Care (AMC Security) from the Playstore and started using it.  Now, I know what you are thinking, another security app for mobile.  Well, sorta kind of but not really.  Honestly, I have used quite a few mobile security apps in my days of Android; even crazy named ones for giggles.  Where AMC stands out is the performance and support that their app provides.

Starting out, you have a One Tap Scan which scans and cleans out redundant background tasks, cache, junk files, privacy records and releases free storage space.  This isn’t much different from most cleaner apps, but the performance is there.  With a side by side of AMC and other cleaner apps AMC performed faster and more efficiently 5 out of 6 times.  This made me happy knowing I was freeing up the most space possible.

Add on that AMC includes an Anti-theft feature, which after you sign up for an account through m.IObit.com you can track and alarm the lost device just in case it is somewhere inside your house.  Didn’t find it in the house and see that it is wandering around town with some thief, well log into the site and you can remotely wipe the data on the device so that your information is erased and useless to the phone thief.

Battery saver mode was a nice feature, but was not able to perform to the lengths that dedicated battery saver apps can.  This isn’t to say that it doesn’t perform well, but compared to say Greenify it doesn’t save as much battery.  Still, in an all-in-one toolbox setup like AMC has provided, the battery saver feature is still an awesome feature.

AMC has the much-needed Task Killer function built-in, which is to be expected to free up as much RAM as possible, which pair that with their Game Speeder feature and you are guaranteed to get the smoothest gaming experience.  I was having severe issues with Rollercoaster Tycoon 4 running on my Note 3, and after running the Game Speeder through AMC I was actually able to play the game for more than 5 minutes before the game finally crashed.  That is way better than before when the game would load and then freeze and crash.

My favorite feature is the App Manager, which allows you to batch delete obsolete APK files, uninstall apps and even move batch apps to the SD Card in one shot allowing you to free up space needed for more Android goodies.  I was surprised how quickly the file transfer to SD was as well as batch deleting APK files.  I have a lot of apps installed on my device and don’t always get around to deleting them. With this feature I was able to delete roughly 75 apps in one swift move without blinking.

Privacy advisor and  Privacy locker ensures that your device is as secure as you want it to be.  Privacy advisor notifies you of any apps that are silently trying to record your information and prompts you with advice concerning those apps (Sorry, didn’t get any notifications on Facebook). Privacy locker lets you lock up files, photos, and videos with a password so no one can view them.  For those of you out there that have embarrassing photos of your friends, or even of yourself hidden on your device, lock them behind a password.

You also have the much appreciated Antivirus, cloud backup as well as a Call/SMS Blocker with three different blocking modes.  This allows you to set up your blocking the way you want it, and ensure that you don’t get bothered by pesky telemarketers or even that girl from the bar that you wish you hadn’t talked to.

Overall, I am very happy to have this app running on my device.  I haven’t had any issues with security before, but having it running gives me the piece of mind that I need to sleep easy.  Is there anything I wish the app had that it doesn’t? Not really, but I am a very simple person to please.  I would definitely recommend this app to anyone looking for an all-in-one toolbox for their mobile security. If you want to give it a go, head over to the PlayStore and download the app now, then Enter our Giveaway where IObit is providing 200 yea, you read that right. 200 premium subscription codes for a 1-month trial of all the features.  Love the app but don’t want to pay premium, keep the app and enjoy the free features. I can almost guarantee that you will have no problem paying the premium fee to enjoy the peace of mind knowing your device is protected. Enter the giveaway below for your chance to win.  Also, share with your friends so they have a chance at winning also.

    I have to agree with all you said above, but I am also a little surprised that you had never heard of iobit before, if you are an avid android fan. Nevertheless, good for you that you finally have found them.
    I myself have used their software both on pc and android for as long as I can remember, and have never had any problems. I would actually say that this software leaves the rest in the dust. There are no one who offers the same package, as easy to use, and for such a good price.

      Definitely. I have yet to find a reason to switch back to anything I had before this. Loving this app and the security it offers.
