I downloaded AppBlock premium from Mobilism, a site offering free premium apps. However, when I checked it on Virus Total to see if it was malicious, it reported a virus, possibly the Tgis virus used for displaying ads on my phone, though I haven’t noticed any ads yet. I tried other sites and they said it’s clean, but since I have strict mode enabled, I can’t uninstall it until the timer ends. Do you think I should keep it if it doesn’t show ads? Also, why don’t other antivirus programs or Malwarebytes detect any issues with this app?

When a program, app, or application is usually paid, but a certain website offers it for free, it isn't considered secure. Particularly when antivirus tools or VirusTotal indicate it's unsafe.

It doesn't imply every cracked app is unsafe, I'd like to hear your thoughts on this specific one and its error message.
