Avast antivirus:

                While CM security is completely free, avast involves payment for many features. This makes avast my secondary choice. But if you just need a good antivirus software Avast is equally good. The Main strength of Avast lies in rooted phones as it offers personal firewall in them, which is a very good advantage.
Features:
