Ratings and reviews

Rating 1 star because of unnecessary extra app installed after installing this ESET Antivirus app. I request to remove "ESET payment protection" from app or put it inside your own app as sub category like others have done. Plus I haven't see any special use of payment protection. I hope ESET alone is great in doing that protection. Its a bloatware. Plus I have seen in last few updates that auto scanning isn't happening. No alert reminder for outdated av filters. No dark theme. Improve Apk scans.

Would really like a VPN on just 2 devices for less than 180 bucks. Honestly would be 4 stars if they had that. Just downgrade the ultimate to 2 or 3 devices and lower the price and it would be about perfect. Constantly has the anti phishing being deactivated tho. Having to manually re activate it all the time is slightly annoying.

So far no issues, using the free version. Manual update is meh but not a deal breaker. Also it's only one I could find that would work on my older phone, and not force making an account to use it. Highly recommend!
