Following the unveiling of 360 Security version 3.0, a newly designed and improved product, and its February milestone, announcing 100 million international users, 360 Security adds a new achievement in becoming the sixth most downloaded Google Play app in the world, as reported by App Annie's latest index (http://blog.appannie.com/worldwide-app-annie-index-apps-february-2015).

360 Security is an all-in-one utility app that provides free, all-around protection of mobile lifestyles with features that speed up device performance, thoroughly clean junk files, eradicate viruses, and more.

"It's clear that in the leaderless market for mobile security and optimization services, 360 Security is emerging to become the de facto provider of essential mobile tools that keep all Android devices running problem-free worldwide," says Huang Yan, Head of Product at 360 Security.

Refreshed brand and product fuels 360 Security's growth

360 Security attributes its recent successes to its renewed focus on delivering an improved intuitive design and robust antivirus engine, coupled with a refreshing new brand pivoted around the knowledge that Android users around the world seek a simple, hassle-free, yet effective solution to both protect themselves and keep their devices running efficiently.

For starters, 360 Security's recent version (3.0 and later) leverages Android Lollipop's Material Design Standards to re-envision and overhaul in-app actions to deliver a frictionless and intuitive user experience. Of course the user experience is only half the battle. Every feature, whether junk file cleaner, antivirus, or memory booster, packs the world's most advanced and reliable technology. For instance 360 Security is powered by Qihoo 360's enterprise-grade antivirus engine, named the best Android security product of 2014 by AV-TEST.

"We shifted our focus to ensure that 360 Security could be used by all Android users, tech-savvy and non tech-savvy alike, and provided effortless access to an all-in-one suite of the world's most reliable services," says Huang. "The overwhelmingly positive response and rapid adoption has been proof that we're headed in the right direction by effectively solving Android users' major pain points."
