What’s the difference between Web of Trust and antivirus apps?

Web of Trust offers protection even before the virus and other malware reaches your device. You can inspect sites from within the app, or rely on the warning blocker for suspicious sites. Another important difference is that most antivirus apps usually provide a free limited version with paid features. Web of Trust is free and without ads. Last, but not least, Web of Trust is supported by a community of real people, constantly monitoring sites they visit for signs of malicious behavior, ensuring their, and your browsing experience is secure and clean.

• Know which websites to trust:
Web of Trust tells you which websites you can trust based on other users' experiences. By collecting and calculating website reputations, it warns against online threats.
• Added a layer of secure browsing:
Web of Trust complements antivirus and malware security by adding a layer of protection only the human eye can spot. Web of Trust is powered by a multi-million strong community that rates websites according to safety, user experience and trustworthiness. Ratings are used to calculate a website’s reputation score. If the score is low, you will be alerted as to the reasons.
• Color, Score & Confidence:
Website trustworthiness is marked by color (red, orange and green), by score (out of 100%) and by rating confidence (out of 5).

Create your own clean lists of sites by rating all visited sites and giving them your trust score.

No integration with Chrome (AFAICT). UPDATE: Version 2.0.2 works well with links from other apps (e.g. Facebook) in Android 6.0. Well done! UPDATE #2: Causes LastPass to crash. Uninstalled.

Does not provide website ratings like the desktop version does. You can search for a website from the WOT app to get a rating, but that is a cumbersome extra step.

Instead, every URL I open now asks which app I want to open it with. Before installing this app, it defaulted to Chrome or a bespoke app.

Be cautious with this app, both google and Firefox banned it from its addons list because of its privacy hack on users accounts (imagine what it's made for but in reverse). Won't say the app does the say, but why wouldn't it?

I can't see a big benefit to using this because it won't show me safety results when searching from any browser on my phone. It's just not the same as it is on a computer.

Remove this as soon as possible! It was recently discovered by a German news company that they sold personal information to third parties.

Mike, moto e running 5.1 I've used wot as an extension in my browser's for a long time, i really like the at a glance feedback it gives with its green circles, very useful. This app doesn't work in the same way, that's a shame, I would prefer it to show the reassuring green circle in my browser. Other than that small gripe, this is fine. Although it doesn't look like it, it is working in the background. If you go to a dodgy site in your browser (I use Chrome), this app puts up a message warning you of the possible problems. Unfortunately, that happens after you arrive on the dodgy site's home page.

Allows web surfers to receive overall reputable ratings of the sites visited. Users can also rate and leave personal comments about their otherwise negative encouters w/ suspicious websites.

Please support Yandex browser, it's based on Chromium just like Google Chrome. Yandex also supports third party content blocking like Adguard and the desktop version of it has WOT as a default extension. Edit: I don't use Google Chrome, sorry.

I personally do NOT want to use any browser unless WOT is installed on it. Through the years.. I have come to love this little protector more and more. Do a GOOD thing..and install it on all of your browsers.

Uses 50 MB of RAM and that is when I am not even using a browser. Far too much to be acceptable. Developer should test this app before releaing.

You can't login to the website acct so you have to completely start over with your reviews. You also cannot give a thumbs up or down on the reviews of others. It asks if you want to open links here instead of Firefox, which was my default browser before I installed this.
