Kaspersky app also has the following known issues and possible solutions on HUAWEI and HONOR devices:

  • Due to firmware functionality on the Huawei P30 the app may not autorun after device restart. We recommend that you add Kaspersky app to the apps that can autorun or start the app manually after the device is restarted.
  • On Huawei devices running Android 6.0 and lower the Data wipe command may not wipe data from an SD card. To minimize the risk that data might fall into the wrong hands, don't save sensitive data on SD cards on these devices.
  • On some Huawei devices, the option to sign in to My Kaspersky with your Google account may be unavailable.
