The much hyped Google Play Protect which was supposed to be an

ultimate shield for Android phones
against malware appears to be in help too. According to a report from independentGerman antivirus test lab, AV-TEST, the security app is not as reliable as many
would think.
The report shows that Google Play Protect can only fight successful
against about 65.8% of latest malware and less than 80% of old malware. To make
the matter worse, the second-worst Android AV product that AV-TEST tested
—Droid-X 3—is said to be better than Google Play Protect.

Google’s Play Protect report is so bad that AV-TEST rated it
a zero out of 6 in malware protection. This simply means, the developers has a
very long way to go in terms of improvement.
