Can anyone confirm that Nova Launcher Prime is malicious and a back door Trojan???? I had it installed on my s3 and when Trust Go security ran an automatic scan it came back dirty and advised me to UN-install it, which I did.... Can anyone else comment on this? Thanks for your help!!!
 
It's safe don't worry. It was probably because Nova Prime has options for rooted phones is why your antivirus app flagged it. I'd use Avast if you are gonna use any antivirus, it's by far the best on the Play Store.

28,000 downloads. If it were really malware, I think someone would have reported real issues by now.

Like he said - are you really questioning one of the most popular apps for Android? 4.8 rating on Nova Prime with 28k+ reviews and "100,000 to 500,000 Installs"...I think you can trust it...unless you downloaded a hacked/cracked version of Nova Prime to avoid paying the amazing dev a few dollars...in which case you should definitely be wary of trojans etc.
 
I see tons of people rate nova launcher very highly. I brought it but never used it. Would I need to install it first in order to see how I can integrate it onto my phone? Or should I view some YouTube videos?

Just install it. If you don't like it, you can easily go back to TW.
