Understanding Scan Results
| Result | Meaning | Action |
|---|---|---|
| 0/70 detections | ✅ Completely clean | Safe to install |
| 1-2/70 detections | 🟡 Likely false positive | Check which engines flagged |
| 3+/70 detections | 🔴 Potential threat | Don't install, verify source |
False positives can occur with gambling apps because some antivirus engines categorize all gambling software as "potentially unwanted." This is not the same as malware.
About False Positives
Sometimes legitimate apps trigger warnings:
- PUA (Potentially Unwanted App): Generic gambling app classification
- Riskware: Some scanners flag all betting apps
- Unknown publisher: Not in antivirus database
- Heuristic detection: Behavior-based guess, not actual virus
If only 1-2 minor engines flag the official APK, it's almost certainly a false positive. Major engines like Kaspersky, Norton, and Bitdefender should show clean.
Malware Red Flags
Signs that an APK might be infected:
- ❌ Downloaded from third-party site
- ❌ Multiple major antivirus detections
- ❌ Flagged as Trojan, Spyware, or Ransomware
- ❌ Much smaller or larger file size than expected
- ❌ Different checksum than official
- ❌ Invalid or missing digital signature
- ❌ Requests excessive permissions
After Installation
Keep your device secure:
- Keep Play Protect on: Continuous monitoring
- Update regularly: Get latest security patches
- Watch for unusual behavior: Battery drain, data usage
- Periodic scans: Run antivirus occasionally
- Official updates only: Update through app or official site
Common Questions
Why do some scanners flag gambling apps?
Some antivirus companies categorize all gambling software as "potentially unwanted" regardless of whether it's safe. This is a policy decision, not a security finding.
Should I be worried about a PUA warning?
PUA (Potentially Unwanted Application) warnings for gambling apps are usually just informational — the software category, not a malware finding. Check if major engines show it clean.
What if I already installed a suspicious APK?
Uninstall immediately. Run a full device scan. Change your 1xBet password. Check for unauthorized activity. Download the official version from the official site.
Is VirusTotal enough to verify safety?
VirusTotal is excellent for malware detection. For complete verification, also check the digital signature and checksum match official values.
