Why is force update not working?

[Graeme1]

I got a heap of alerts on callpay.lo and am trying to update to stop those alerts. But force update appears to do nothing...?

This was a False Positive.

The issue is resolved now. Updated malware db is now live. v2020.08.14.02.
Please do a manual database update, Hamburger thingy in upper left > Settings > Other > Force Update.

Tapping 'Force update' won't show a status notification, the update will take a minute or two to download and populate.
You can see what version of the malware db you have installed by tapping the Hamburger thingy in upper left > About >  App version down 'V' > Malware database

Hamburger thingy is cooked! Force update is non responsive... does nothing...

Please try restarting the phone and being patient to allow apps to load up after the reboot. Phones are nowhere near as fast at updates as a computer.

Thanks 😊.  I ended up uninstalling and reloading from Playstore. That did  the trick. No false alerts now. I have a Samsung 10S on Wi-Fi,  so it's pretty fast.  The force update when tapped only when grey for an instant,  and then gave absolutely no indication that anything was happening... just FYI.
