Android Question VB4 Bridge secure ?

[ciginfo]

Hello
My smartphone send this message when opening VB4 Bridge.
"The application seems infected, you are advised to uninstall it quickly."
Look at the attached file.
Is there a real problem?

The name is B4A Bridge!

It is probably a false positive.

B4A-Bridge is secure, of course.

Is there a real problem?

Yes. Google.

All apps from which Google does not make any $ are flagged. This I have observed by numerous posts of members whose apps are removed and they were simple ones with no ads.

I think if B4A Bridge shows ad, which helps Google make $, then it will be not flagged.

Is that warning from Google or from an antivirus?

B4A-Bridge security warning from google

A warning message appeared on my smartphone that B4a-Bridge may be infected. I attach the screenshot. B4A-Bridge has never been activated for over 16 days. I still uninstalled B4a-Bridge. Did it happen to someone else?

What brand is your mobile phone?

Yes. Google.

I highly doubt this is correct.

I also don't get a warning when I start B4A Bridge, so it's not a general warning. Instead I suspect the manufacturer of your phone have their own antivirus solution that produce this false positive. (In theory it could be you that installed an antivirus on your phone, but you would know if you did that, I suspect.)

Lastly, the wording in that message doesn't even remotely sound like a message from Google.
