Protectstar™ again receives AV-TEST certification for Antivirus AI for Android
Many improvements from version 1.5 to 2.0
In December 2023, Antivirus AI Android version 1.5 was awarded the AV-TEST certificate for its high detection rate and reliability. With version 2.0, further significant improvements have been implemented:
- Detection rate: While version 1.5 achieved an impressive detection rate of 99.5% for widespread Android malware, version 2.0 increased this rate to 99.9%.
- Reduced false positives: Although false positives were reduced from five to three, this resulted in a point deduction in the overall result due to the strict AV-TEST guidelines.
- Performance optimization: The new version offers improved system performance, minimizing the impact on device performance.
- Advanced protection features: New features such as real-time protection and advanced threat detection through artificial intelligence and dual-engine technology have been implemented.

Version 2.0 of Antivirus AI Android was extensively tested by AV-TEST and achieved excellent results in all categories:
