ADD33,

 

It can take time for the My Webroot Account to update with the scan results from your Android. What exactly is the website telling you and what version of the SecureAnywhere app are you on? If it is not the latest version (at the time of this post we are on Version 2.8.0.3070) please turn Automatic Updates on within the Google Play Store and update the SecureAnywhere app.

 

Please make sure that your device is connected to either a WiFi or 3G/4G connection and run another scan.

 

Please let me know your results.

Hi,

 

What does the portal say the issue is on your mobile device?

Just to speed it up, could you log out and log in your portal, and see if that updates correctly?

Hello ADD33,

 

I was just going to follow-up with you to see if you had tried what djames had suggested? Is everything reflecting on your My Webroot Account properly?

I recall I had the same issue after syncing of my HTC with PC had somehow broke. There was only one solution how to get rid off this problem with account ... reinstallation of WSA in mobile. After that the problem disappeared.
