AVG Technologies AU has today announced that AVG TuneUp for Android™ is now available free for Android smartphones and tablets.

Built to help users get improved performance from their Android smartphones and tablets, AVG TuneUp for Android combines several tools to increase device performance, including a task killer, battery saver and storage space manager, and also allows users to monitor their data usage. The application enables users to fine-tune their device’s performance to keep it running as  smoothly as possible.

“Smartphones and tablets are increasingly integral to our business and social lives. Being able to reply to email, edit documents, search the web and connect with our friends while on the move is something that many of us take for granted,” said Yuval Ben-Itzhak, Chief Technology Officer at AVG Technologies. “Given this, it can be incredibly frustrating when your device runs out of battery suddenly or when multiple applications are leading to a sluggish user experience. AVG TuneUp for Android offers a range of easy-to-use smart tools that work together to ensure that your Android device can keep up with your busy schedule.”
