The app uses too much battery or storage — how can I optimize it?

Short answer: Keep Quick scans for routine, limit retention, and use Wi-Fi for updates.

Battery tips

  • Scan type: Use Quick daily; run Deep weekly or when suspicious.

  • Scan after reboot: Turn Off on very low-end devices if boot time matters.

  • Keep system Battery Saver enabled (the app still runs on demand).

Storage tips

  • Keep reports: Set to 1 month (shorter if needed).

  • Quarantine cleanup: 1–2 weeks.

  • Remove large downloads and duplicate media from your device.

Data-use tips

  • Download threats list → Wi-Fi only to avoid mobile data.

  • Leave Update threats list on Automatic so updates happen in small, regular chunks.
