Starting a scheduled scan

You can configure a schedule in order to automatically launch a full device scan: choose how often the scan is to be launched, as well as the day and time of launch (if necessary).

For the app to launch the scan automatically, the device must be turned on at the time when the scan is scheduled to begin.

The app launches the automatic scheduled scan in background mode. When a malicious object is detected, the app performs the action selected in the scan settings.

Schedule

The frequency with which a full scan of the file system is performed. The following options are available:

  • Weekly: the app automatically launches the scan once a week. For this option, you can choose the day and time to launch the scan.
  • Daily: the app automatically launches the scan every day at the specified time. For this option, you can choose the time to launch the scan.
  • Disabled: the app does not perform an automatic scheduled scan. This allows you to perform a scan at any time.
