I installed it yesterday, added an app scanner by mcafee. Haven't noticed any other difference.

Where are you seeing that? Nothing on my + that has an icon.

Thanks. Don't have that, but I have the Verizon security stuff disabled. May be why. You sure that didn't ride along with the Seagate stuff?

I got it yesterday. It's mostly a bug fix for the KRACK fix from last month.

Yes that is why you don't see it. I had it disabled too.

Right on

Thanks

I have a notification wanting me to activate the new app is it safe? and will it be a battery drain source?

Anyone?

If you're talking about enabling McAfee... That's a personal choice. I've never used an AV app on any of my phones so not sure about battery hit.

Yes, I don't know if it came with the last update on the 15th or, if I had it disabled and re-enabled it but if it's not really needed on a phone like it is on a Pc, then I'll just keep it disabled. Thanks very much!

Yeah, those kind of apps make it look like you'd better install them or something bad will happen. If you use the internet responsibly, don't open emails/attachments from unknown sources and only download protected Play Store or Galaxy apps, you should be fine.
