Yes! SafeGuard is 100% free for personal use. All features are available without any payment or subscription. We fund our development through enterprise solutions for businesses.

No. SafeGuard is designed to be lightweight and efficient. It uses minimal battery and RAM. Our app is optimized to run in the background without affecting your phone's performance.

SafeGuard supports Android 6.0 (Marshmallow) and above. This covers over 95% of all Android devices currently in use.

We only collect anonymous usage data to improve our threat detection. We never collect personal information, files, browsing history, or any identifiable data. Your privacy is our priority. See our Privacy Policy for details.

Real-time protection is enabled by default. Open SafeGuard, go to Settings → Protection, and make sure "Real-time protection" is turned on. You may need to grant Accessibility permissions for full protection.

SafeGuard needs certain permissions to protect your device effectively:

• Storage — to scan files for malware
• Accessibility — to detect phishing websites
• Device admin — to enable anti-theft features

We never use these permissions to collect personal data.

We recommend using only one antivirus app at a time. Running multiple security apps can cause conflicts, drain battery faster, and may actually reduce your protection.
