Hello and welcome to the Webroot Community dalykurn!
I am sorry to hear you are having an issue with Webroot on you Android and would like to help you resolve this.
To better determine exactly what is going on, there's a few things I'd like to know.
1. First and foremost, is the device rooted? If so, unfortunately we cannot guarantee we will work properly on such a device because improper root permissions settings changes can negatively affect any app.
2. Are you running any task killer apps? If so, it is likely that this app is deactivating Webroot as it comes on and tries to scan the apps you download.
3. Do you have any other mobile security apps installed? These can cause a variety of conflicts with Webroot ranging from scan issues to compatibility issues that cause the program to close.
4. Finally, can you verify what version of Webroot your Android is on and if it is the Free, Premier, or Complete app? To check this, open up your Webroot Mobile App and press the Android menu button from the home screen. Then press "About."
The answers to these questions will hopefully tell us the full (or at least more complete) story of your issue and will really help as we continue with the troubleshooting steps. Please let me know and we will go from there.
Thanks!

Hey dalykurn,
Thanks for following all the instructions in your support ticket. I'm glad your Webroot Premier app is auto-scanning properly now. After going through the various troubleshooting steps, the issue seemed to have been due to either a direct conflict with the Smart Lock App or an "out-of-memory" issue. By uninstalling Smart Lock, you basically killed two birds with one stone. Not only did that ensure Smart Lock doesn't conflict with Webroot auto scanning the apps, you also freed up some processing memory. http://webroot.i.lithium.com/i/smilies/16x16_smiley-happy.gif
Please let me know if you have any more questions or issues!
