• When you turn on App Protection, the app uses the Device Administrator permission.
• The Wi-Fi Security feature needs the location permission to get the name of the Wi-Fi network you’re connected to, even when the app is running in the background. The app doesn’t actually access or track your location.
• When you turn on Web Filtering, the app uses the Android Accessibility Service API to check links you open in supported web browsers. The app sends link addresses to SophosLabs to check for malicious, undesirable, or illegal content. Depending on the app settings, such content is blocked. No personal information is collected.
Battery and data usage
• Malware definitions update once a day to keep you protected. This uses a small amount of data.
• The initial full scan of every installed app causes a one-time increase in battery usage.
Data safety
• The app doesn't store your web browsing history.
• When the app is managed by Sophos Mobile, your organization can see details about web pages the app has blocked or warned about.

Questions & Answers
Q: What is an APK File?
A: Just like Windows (PC) systems use an .exe file for installing software, Android does the same. An APK file is the file format used for installing software on the Android operating system.
Q: If I install an APK from this website, will I be able to update the app from the Play Store?
A: Yes, absolutely. The Play Store installs APKs it downloads from Google's servers, and sideloading from a site like ApkClean.net goes through a very similar process, except you're the one performing the downloading and initiating the installation (sideloading).
As soon as the Play Store finds a version of the app newer than the one you've sideloaded, it will commence an update.
Q: Why ApkClean.net can guarantee APK 100% safe?
A: Whenever someone wants to download an APK file from ApkClean.net, we'll check the corresponding APK file on Google Play and allow user download it directly (of course, we'll cache it on our server). If the APK file does not exist on Google Play, we'll search it in our cache.
Q: What are Android App permissions?
A: Apps require access to certain systems within your device. When you install an application, you are notified of all of the permissions required to run that application.
Don't hesitate to contact us if you have any questions or concerns.

User's Reivew
3 ★It's ok in general, but one issue I do not like at all. Since installation it reports the same apk as potentially unwanted app and the only option I get is to delete it. But I know that the app is safe and I want to keep it. No option to mark it as safe or to disregard it during future scans. If this is implemented, I will give it 5 stars...
4 ★Would be nice if there was an icon indicator showing that the app is running in the notifications area at the top of the phone, also the web filtering icon disappears after a short time while browsing and the app does drain a lot out of your battery so I hope with some of these thing's will be looked into with newer updates. but I do like this security app nice intrusion detection.
1 ★I'd like to change to 5 start if my issue would ever been resolved. After install Sophos Intercept X in work profile (required by company policy), it asks for "usage access" permission. However the app is NOT listed in the usage access settings at all! How should I grant permission if you don't put your app in the usage access list? I am on Android 11 and this is a Oneplus 8T phone with Oneplus Oxygen OS 11.0.8.11, (It's not-rooted). On the contrast, the app is listed in the usage access when asking for permission on my Oneplus 7T phone (tried the same time). Please fix!
5 ★Stable, effective, and all but invisible. Uses almost no resources. I have it on an s10+ and a pixel 4. Runs really well on both. I've always been a Sophos fan. That hasn't changed.
3 ★I did not actually implement this app, not because it is not a valid application , rather simply because within the third paragraph of the privacy policy there was an grammatical error. The word inquiries had a typo "enquires" the error in a legal rider, about privacy, which I take seriously as a U. S citizen precluded me from agreeing. However if such error was amended there is the possibility of advancing further. Perhaps I could then actually use the application without question of validity.
5 ★Best securities at all time in play store. I've ever used.. vote 5 🌟 rates Developer..
5 ★After restarting my phone, sophos every time ask for active again as after installing it from play store. And link checker cannot support in Android 10.0 version. Why? I deleted this. But security is best security. I love it. But please solve this problem..... Very bad
5 ★Highly recommend this app to protect your online routine
5 ★It's one of the best security apps I've ever used.
5 ★Probably the best security app I have ever used. It seems to check out and watch for everything that could cause a threat to you or whatever you have it on desktop or your mobile phone. I Love It So Far !!
5 ★Several times, I've loaded this app for malware prevention and uninstalled it to try another app. Now it's on for good. It's not as flashy as some of the competition, but works quietly and effectively. I'm particularly pleased with the link checker and web filtering. So impressed, I've gone so Sophos Home Premium for the desktop. Well done, Sophos!
3 ★This could be an excellent app but sadly web filtering turns itself off several times per day. This is a critical option so having a turn off reduces greatly the quality of the application
