The best thing to do is not have any app cleaners IMO, just clear the cache of apps that may be using too much sometimes and clear them from the overview menu

It really depends on personal experience that you had. I have been using clean master from past few months & i got nothing to experience bad with it.As someone who HAS experienced Clean Master, and the problems it caused on devices, I really wouldn't want to recommend this to anyone. And that's ignoring all the security and privacy problems it has.

Aww...never mind...Sorry I don't follow your description and Don't know what you are labeling what.
Yeah, even before the Nexus series, right from the start with the G1 I always bought devices running vanilla Android. No doubt not having UI overlays or carrier bloatware mucking up the OS has been big for my lack of trouble.From your profile your environment is Nexus. My environment is Motorola Droid, X, Bionic, Maxx, Turbo, Turbo2. This might well explain the difference.
I've found CCleaner to be the safest and least invasive product for use on Android.How is Ccleaner?
You might be able to use an app called Network Connections to see whether it is connecting to any sites it shouldn't be (i.e. to Cheetah Mobile).
Task killers are well known to be unnecessary and counter-productive, so the fact that Samsung included this thing at all tells me that Samsung's marketing people make the decisions rather than the software engineers. Choosing Cheetah Mobile to provide it also shows that the decision was not made by people who pay attention to the Android world at levels other than sales figures. That's why I don't trust them to have made sure it is clean before including it.
This was widely commented on when they first released it with the S6, but Samsung don't seem to have paid any attention.
Oh noooooo. I was using 360 Security and I thought it was safe enough. But I need some Antivirus. Can you please recommend me one? Currently I have 360, MalwareBytes, and Avira. And all are greenified hehe (Cause I use them only to scan my tablet, I hate those booster and cleaner thingies).We have a sticky thread in this forum about "speed boosters" and the like: http://androidforums.com/threads/pu...k-killers-ram-optimizers-and-the-like.896663/
Two words: snake oil.
Many people regard 360 security as an untrustworthy app (which is worrying when it has such extensive permissions). They've also used extremely dubious techniques to drive installs before now, e.g. http://androidforums.com/threads/36...otional-channels-to-increase-downloads.864082. Personally I would avoid them altogether.
Well, I install apps from anywhere and thats the reason i needed one (Once a malicious app asked for Administrator permission and 360 had warned me on time, it was supposed to be an alarm clock, but the app wasn't on the launcher at all ). So as you said, i will continue using MalwareBytes.Actually if you are sensible about where you install from you don't actually need one of these things. But if you just want to scan occasionally MalwareBytes is fine.
