Ratings and reviews

Very rough start. I downloaded the full premium version and within a week I got hacked for the first time ever. I only switched to it because the US outlawed Kaspersky and this was moderately similar. I do like how out of your way the interface is but it seems like that's because it's not actually protecting your device. But at least it makes you feel more secure...

It has become futile to even have this software. I have it to cover three machines, and I have done so for a few years now. I've tried to jump through the various hoops it takes to keep it from turning off, but almost every time I check, web protection is again... turned off. So I'm paying for protection that keeps turning off.

Just installed bc I'm worried about a link I hit, and the thing that I wanted it for most right now... web security, keeps IMMEDIATELY turning itself off. I have removed every limitation possible for the battery and permissions, but for naught. Tech support was very nice but couldn't resolve and is going to have somebody get back to me. So far, obviously not the greatest experience, as I have no peace of mind using my one year old phone atm.
