I use Kaspersky Plus. The VPN is fast, and features like split tunneling and kill switch seem to be functional. The antivirus has not failed me yet, and it makes me feel safer in my day-to-day browsing. I omitted a star because I wish that features like anti-ad and anti-tracker were available on the app version (they are available on the PC version). I'm also not a fan of the password manager; I prefer 1Password's autofill and UI.

The home network monitor is not accurate and incorrectly shows other devices close to you, but not actually on your network ( and devices that never have connected to your network) so this network monitor festure is useless on android. It incorrectly shows I have 30 active connectiions. It seems the issue was fixed on desktop windows but the android app is not correct. When will this be fixed or can someone help me if there is a solution? Will happily update my rating if fixed or resolved.

File reviews and protections seem to be working fine. I read the new Kapersky legals/releases for allowing third party sharing. So I rechecked settings; I found some of my full "contacts" were now recorded, offered up along with my camera, and from that, photo accesses. I dislike sneak-arounds to get non-intently-offered information. Run by my clear intent; I "re-removed" contacts. Anyhow, Kapersky accesses "all storage files," Anyway. My ratings dropped over having to re-deny these permits.

We are always aiming to protect your data and keep it secure. Thus, it is required to provide the app with device administrator credentials since its features like "Where is my device", "App Lock", and "Web protection" will not work without them.

What's new

We continue to improve VPN speed. The Catapult Hydra protocol is extremely fast when transferring data from one continent to another, under almost all circumstances! So we’re happy to report it’s now available on your mobile devices. We hope you enjoy it!
