Hi

 

Im not sure if it's built in but AVG is a good option.

There is also http://www.vodafone.co.uk/explore/apps/vodafone-protect-app/

 

Current Phone  >

Samsung Galaxy s²³ Ultra 512gb Phantom Black.

 

 

Thanks for the really quick reply but before I would attempt to instal one, I would have to ensure that there isn't one there already.

Hi

 

I added information about the Vodafone Protect App also. 

 

Im not able to find any indicator in the online specs so perhaps visiting a Vodafone Highstreet Store and take a look at a working demo model. 

 

Thats if someone who uses the phone cannot clarify for you on here.

It has never occurred to me that phones came with anti virus already
installed, so I've added my own choice of app to any phone I've used,
without running into any conflicts as a result.

Vodafone Protect is the obvious one that might be installed, but I guess
you could disable it if you don't want it, and would prefer another. If
there isn't one mentioned in the phone's spec, and there isn't one in the
app draw, I'd reckon there isn't one.

Having given security much thought and research, I have decided upon, and installed, the free Malwarebytesantimalware  and  free Avast anti virus. The Vodaphone Protect just didn't appeal to me.

Welcome to the Community.

 

Android phones do not come with anti virus already built in.

 

The best one for a Vodafone branded phone would be Vodafone Protect.  Take a look at the benefits on the link below.

Galaxy s6 comes with built in Anti Virus.

Galaxy S6 is Android phone.
