Ratings and reviews

USED TO BE GOOD. The new Emsisoft cares more about Microsoft than it does about my computer safety and freedom. I was afraid this would happen when they partnered with Windows Defender. Recently the W 10 update caused a certain safe program that I have used for years to fail. I couldn't get it to work. I found out that Windows is now blocking it, calling it a Potentially Unwanted Program. When I contacted Emsisoft about this they said they "CAN'T" help me because it's Windows doing it!

The app is overall very good. I was able to open locked apps without entering the Passcode by swiping thru apps open on my Android 14 and then when I came back to the locked app, it opened without entering a pin. Trusted WiFi is disabled and app is locked on exit. Has anyone else found this to be the case ?

It's great but unnecessary for me at least. It's really nice but I just don't see why I need antivirus on Android when Android, especially on my Pixel, is very secure and I update my phone and all its apps all the time. There are so many protections in place already on my Pixel that I can't justify the hit on my battery life. For just 10 bucks though, not bad, but I uninstalled it to save resources on my phone.
