I am having an issue with Webroot SecureAnywhere 5.1.0.17796 & the Device Maintenance app 2.0.11.4 on a Samsung Galaxy S6 running Android 7.0.
The issue below only started happening after the Webroot SecureAnywhere 5.1.0.17796 was installed.
When I start the Device Maintenance app, Webroot pops up over the top, I close Webroot., start the Storage or Memory modules of Device Maintenance app and Webroot pops up over the top.
I have unistalled and reinstalled Webroot and cleaned the system cache. I unistalled the updates to the Device Maintenance app, use the older version and no issues with Webroot.
Solved
Webroot SecureAnywhere Android and Device Maintenance apps clashing?

I am having the same issue. When I try to review the storage available on my S9, Webroot layers on top and will not allow access to screen for more than 1 second.

Hi Sophia thank you for the reply.
I also have a Samsung Galaxy TAB S2 4G which I don't use very often.
Turned it on this morning local time and it updated several apps including Webroot.
Started the Device Maintenance app and no issues with Webroot popping up.
Both devices are running Android 7.0 Nougat.
