I understand this is a small process but I am concerned. My Webroot is constantly in scanning as advised on the top swipedown android notification screen as "ongoing" app. I tried to kill the provessel to no avail.
I even did a clean reinstall yesterday.
Time on battery since this morning is 4hrs and 35mins. Battery usage for webroot is 73%. could the scan be stuck in the background?(as per my prev post) and it keep draining my battery? My phone battery usually last for entire day at 30% end of day now it's down to %30 half day in...
something is not right here... I have webroot for PC and it's great. But the mobile version seems to be a bit buggy... I'm sad as this is a $20 app.

I apologize for the wait, teriases.

This article could also contain some good information for you. Sometimes it's a corrupted file or a corrupted SD Card that Webroot is stuck on. There are instructions in the article on how to check to see if that's the issue. Please let us know if the article is helpful for you.
Hi teriases, I would add, beside Mike's and Jim's suggestions, to have a look in this KB article as well as this. The both can give you another great portion of information.
If I could bet what causes your battery drain, it would be a corrupted file or a SD card. In the first mentioned KB article you will find instructions how to check for corruptions.
Please be so kind and revert with result.
