Required on my work Samsung phone. Worked OK for a while, but it now eats the battery and CPU time since the last update (4.21.1), which creates a lot of heat. Battery went from 100% to 22% is just 6 hours while the phone sat idle and the phone was very hot to the touch. Android warned that zIPS was using too much CPU (around 37% if I remember correctly) and I shut it down, but it reloaded itself. Finally managed to restrict background battery use in Android 12, but don't know if that will be effective yet. The developer really needs to fix the excess battery/CPU usage in the latest version as it makes the phone pretty useless. I'd uninstall it if my work would allow, but doubt that will happen.

Incredibly invasive app. Drains my battery, hogs resources and slows down my phone. Kills certain functions when browsing the web too, the app is just a pain to use all round. Work requires us to use it to access emails or MS Teams on our phones. But I've now uninstalled. Guess that means no after hours emails so that's a win-win situation.

Huge ram spikes leave phone basically useless. The app tracks everything to ensure it isn't a 'threat' the result makes the phone completly unusable. All apps, typing, NFC, music playback everything, grinds to a hault. The apps uses more power than outlook, teams, one note combined putting security at a highly higher priority than actual work. I gritted my teeth for 3 mobths. I now don't have work emails on my phone - productivity down App must be rewritten in c++ or other non managed language.
