Have any of you heard of this Android app before? Could it be a virus?

I just got a text from a friend asking me if I ever heard of an Android app called Kevin Henderson. He said that he never heard of it before and has no idea where it came from and what it does. He also mentioned that he was unable to remove it.

After a quick Google search I couldn't find any answers.

Have any of you heard of it before? Could it be a virus?

How would you go about removing it?

Edit:

Just found out it's Brett not Kevin Henderson. There appears to be a developer by that name but it's the name of the app not the developer.

I recall that the Avast mobile edition has this function whereby it'll make another copy of itself on the device to whatever name the user wants to. This copy is a silent copy for tracking down the phone if it's lost.

My question for you is, did he buy the phone off someone? Or did he find it somewhere?

No he got the phone new from his network provider and has had it for several months now. The app just showed up yesterday.
