Smartphones are great companions. They put the web, media and communication capabilities of a computer right in your pocket. Like computers, they also contain some of your most sensitive data, including contacts, messages, photos and passwords. Fortunately, there’s an easy step you can take to protect your privacy in case your device or your number ever leaves your hands.


That step is Avira Free Android Security, a full suite of tools to lock out unauthorized access, help you recover a lost or stolen phone and cut off unwanted calls and texts.

  • Blacklist
    Hang up on unwanted calls and texts.

    Your device goes with you everywhere, but that doesn’t mean any telemarketer, spammer, frenemy or other persona non grata should too! Our Blacklist feature enables you to block and unblock calls and SMS from any number.

  • Remote Lock
    Hide your stuff from prying eyes.

    Shield your personal information as soon as you think your device is missing. Lock your phone to wall off its contents and display special instructions to anyone who finds it.


  • Location Tracking
    Instantly pinpoint the device’s location.

    Search for your smartphone the smart way! Avira Free Android Security can locate your device’s signal and display its location on a Google map.

  • Owner Notification
    Be reachable when your phone is found.

    Being a hero was never so convenient! The person who finds your locked phone can contact you at another number simply by tapping a button on the touchscreen.


  • Remote Scream
    Give yourself a holler!

    Can’t find your phone? Maybe it isn’t far away or no one has noticed an unattended phone. Log in to your account and trigger a loud noise from the device, even if it’s in silent mode.

  • Remote Wipe
    Protect your privacy, no matter what.

    Phone stolen or hopelessly lost? Even in the worst case, your privacy is safe and sound. Visit the Web Console to erase all contacts, messages, apps, photos, login credentials and settings.


  • Device Administration
    Monitor battery life and more—for up to five devices.
