#MadeForIndia 360 Security Lite App – a must have app!

There was a question on what are the basic necessities for human being to lead a life on earth, normally the answer used to be clothing, shelter and food, these days it is actually mobile phone then clothing, shelter and food. The journey of the phone has also come a long way and the present set of users are directly graduating to use the best of the features. A smart phone is one of the best inventions ever since the telephone was invented if you ask me.

There is a reason that the phone with multiple features in your hands is called a smart phone. It’s  just that the smartness is on us to take advantage of the phone and every day we come across some of the best apps that we believe can change the way we look at the phone perhaps the way, even life itself.

Then there is an appworld out there where every app maker is churning the best and sometimes try to push you to get to use it. But rarely do we get solutions as a part of the app. On such app is the 360 Security Lite app.

There are two important things for your phone to be a smart phone, a nice memory management and then the most important power management.

360 Security Lite app makes that possible getting you the fast memory and an efficient batttery. That’s the first part of boosting the phone in literal terms. The junk files are nothing but junk and then you need it to be out of the system. Junk shud be where it belongs never in your system. Easy way to be clean was just a tap in the circle to clean it up.

And when you want to clean your phone off any unwanted files that keep your power and perfomance on wane, without your knowledge you have an important task that happens when you use the Clean tab. Scan it and make it clean.

And to talk of virus that enters stealthily and makes it worse for us to use the phone. this tab scans for malware and virus and those software that takes your privacy and trasfer them without your knowledge.

So now I have complete control of getting into slick power management mode with a tap in the app. I know what is wrong and how its tampering with the performance of the phone and its shows!

You also get to see which are the apps consuming memory and draining battery.  The suggest cleaning gives a lot of information on what is making it slow.

There are a lot of features like Cleanup reminder and UNinstall reminder a very simple thing that will make a lot of difference. I should give it to the giy who came up with uninstall reminder. Kudos team. The ofcourse you have a Boost Charge and Real Time Protection and App Installation alert.

All in all really a lite app and I am sure this is a must have app that every Phone user read Smart Phone user should have. I would rather put it like this, your phone may be a smart phone but installing this app would make you smart.

Some other apps that make to my list of 4 must apps after 360 Degree Security Lite app are the ones given below:

1. Walnut app: I got to know of this app from my cousin once. I installed it and it went on an overdrive and know what, analysed all the messages in the inbox and gave a nice account statement. I had also made it mandatory on me that i would only use the card to do the transaction and mark the cash accordingly wherever i was going to use it or add it with a bill. It’s given a new way of looking at finances and expenses and where to cut the long rope that i have been giving to some heads of the expense statement.

This is must have app and I believe that this will be one of the most important apps that we should have to keep the checks and balances in life literally. You could rephrase that too keep your cash and balances in life.

2.  WowApp: An all new messenger that not only gives you the easy to use calling features but also gets you to have a network of your own that you can monetise, please check them at https://wowapp.com/w/wsenthilkumar.rajappan and join in from my side.

3. True Caller: An app that lets you see who is calling and if the person actually is connected to you by someone who you know. That has actually made me take a call on whether I should really take a call. Try it for sure.

So it was nice reviewing the app and I believe this is a nice and neatly designed on and then there is 360 Box in case you are interested to see how the new market place ofr apps will look like.

I am reviewing the 360 Degree Security Lite App for the #MadeForIndia activity at BlogAdda.”
