💸 Want to send money abroad for free?

WORST SERVICE EVER !. DO NOT BUY IT !!! After purchasing this service I keep receiving a notification that my payment wasn’t successful which lead me to go and process another payment. Next thing I know my account showed up 2 transactions made by MCAFEE which lead me to call them an request a refund for one payment which they said “ it will be processed within 15 days” . TODAY AFTER 3 months I haven’t get any refund. The person which I talked today just told me that the refund request can be made within 30 days and HIS ONLY SOLUTION was selling me another PLAN making me lose MORE MONEY . Besides that I just checked my laptop and I got detected 2 virus which I ask an explanation for it as well and CUSTOMER SERVICE told me that my plan DOESNT COVER THAT TYPE OF SERVICES… I could rather pay extra $50 for the help of a technician or upgrade my plan. THESE PEOPLE IS A JOKE IN WHAT THEY ARE DOING… they are just trained to sell you products and is super annoying that they keep telling you on the phone that they can’t hear you when they are in a super noisy office!

Unable to cancel services. I have been round and round with a couple people at your company to attempt to cancel services within the 7 day trial to no success! You keep telling me you have no way of cancelling and that I have to go through Apple! RIDICULOUS! My phone has an unsupported IOS upgrade and won’t let me in! Therefore I have cancelled my cc to stop any charges and you can cancel my services on your end! What an asinine way to do business! My phone was hacked and all your scans kept telling me all is fine! Worthless app in my opinion! Still have not been able to cancel your app! You need to cancel this ineffective security app on your end as I am unable to do it through the App Store! Can’t sign in on App Store or your sight! Well within the 7 day trial period! My cc has been cancelled on my end ! You need to cancel on your end to end this nightmare! WORTHLESS APP THAT FINDS NOTHING WRONG AND I KNOW MY PHONE WAS HACKED BUT YOUR APP KEPT TELLING ME ALL IS OK! Do your job and cancel! You won’t get any money from me for this useless app!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

So Far So Good. I don’t usually write reviews, but I felt compelled to give my approval for McAfee after having issues with malware and viruses on my company laptop. Working remotely opened my laptop to threats I hadn’t paid much attention to before. I’m not certain how it happened, but going to my company’s website somehow triggered an attack and prompted me to download a fishy looking mock-up of the “new browser” (misspellings was the first red flag). I didn’t proceed, but trying to back out of the browser even was problematic. Thanks to my renewal of the McAfee Anti-virus and Protection Software, all I had to do was initiate a scan and it quarantined and removed the threat within 15 minutes. Unfortunately, the company website is still doing the same problematic prompting and will automatically trigger the process all over again and I have to run the scan again, but I believe that has something to do with the web domain more than with my McAfee protected system.

New update is trash. Looks like nord vpn-idk what cheap version this is but i haven’t even gotten close to being able to scan my phone since the update. Why do i have to sign in, give you my email, and all that? When i didn’t have to before? Why is it necessary? Wish i could uninstall the update. UPDATE: response to developer-the website offers a totally free version. Let me know if you need a link. I’m a little confused as to why you are advertising a 6mo free trial and requiring ppl to register “again” and gatekeeping the free version? Is there a reason some of us don’t qualify for the free no hassle version? Usually updates don’t require having to re register on an app... the fact that you would just “update” and log ppl out of their accounts, leaving their phones unprotected is quite questionable and in poor taste.

Great app but a few issues. Very good app for saving things to be protected. But there are a few weird things with this app. 1) The alarm is disturbing. You guys could’ve changed it to something else than a child screaming. Maybe a high-pitched alarm sound or a option where you can choose one. 2) Media vault is annoying. It says you have to delete every single photo on your device to import photos. It’s annoying for people who like to keep images (like me), just make it optional (like saying “Keep and Import” or “Delete and Import”). Another thing about it is that there is a notification that’s just permanently there saying to delete photos if you denied access. You cannot get rid of it until you delete your photos. (Extra Idea) make a password storage (like media storage) but it has passwords instead (maybe add a option to import from another service like dashlane?). Great app overall but should fix their app a little more.

Pretty good, but I don’t know.. Some dude tried to trick me into clicking a viruses link, but he himself literally spoiled his own trick. He told me “it might say it’s a virus, but don’t worry.” It kinda made me laugh a bit. I didn’t click on the link (because I already knew it was a virus in the beginning) , but i was still curious if I had a virus on me. I quickly downloaded this app, and it says I’m safe, but I have a feeling it’s not. I used to download virus protection apps and every result would come out differently. It would scan, safe, then I scan again, boom there’s a problem out of nowhere and I have to pay the monthly fee in order to see what is the problem. I figured it was just a scam or fake protection, so I deleted it and never really trusted a virus protection app since. This app seem legit, but my only concern is if it genuinely helps you scan for viruses for free and tries to not pull some tricks so that you pay first. I know the developer is gonna say “this is safe,” but I don’t know. Hopefully I can trust this company with my stuff.

Beware. I had this app for 3 years and one day I noticed that different pages of the McAfee website disagreed on how many devices I had protected. After initiating a chat with support I opened the app on my phone and the first thing I saw was a message asking me if I wanted the app to keep protecting my phone when the app wasn’t open. Seriously? Isn’t that the reason for the app’s existence? I found a place in settings where I selected that option and closed the app? Later during the same support session I reopened the app and got the same message. Support offered no solution, apology, or even any acknowledgement whatsoever that such behavior might be a problem. It can’t protect your phone if it shuts itself off when you stop looking at it. That it could ever be necessary to even say that is unconscionable. Shop elsewhere

Great! Except..... I really like the McAfee Security however, there are some very annoying issues: 1) when protecting more than one device a) had to install several times on each device to get that device to show up in my list of protected devices. Also, the labels aren’t the same as the names I gave them 2) Account homepage still lists duplicate devices when you get a new subscription-still haven’t found a way to delete the devices from expired/previous subscriptions Overall, the actual product is the best in my opinion. Although it takes a bit of finesse to get things organized so you really know your devices are protected using the exact same subscription and its parameters. McAfee needs to streamline this process and let people know to install the software on your Pc FIRST. Then from that Pc, send msgs to your other devices. This way all/everything is in the same place to be administered. If you do not do it this way, it’s all confusing and your list of protected devices won’t be right.

Dave. Was using the free version was very happy then all of a sudden it switched to a pay I am a senior and I loved the free one worked for what I needed limited income here so you would of got a 4 or 5 for the free one but when you want me to pay then you loose points I got a reply from McAfee because they upgraded there vpn the free edition is no longer available I am sad because it was working fine I upped my rating to a 3 star because at least they answered my question. I am sorry to say that I won’t be using there product because its not because I don’t want to it’s just a budget scenario because I have to decide medications or a VPN medications win when you are battling a non curable cancer that they can give you treatments to help control so much for the free edition I was very happy with. I just want to say thank you for your free edition and sorry that I cannot rate the new edition

Pages Don't Load. Restated in response to the canned response from a corporate entity who wants my money. I don't accept your reply as a genuinely amicable effort. Plenty of better VPNs out there. I want a refund. Whether it's the private vpn or safe browsing mode, most pages on iPad do not load. The pages get hung up, blocked or stand still with the loading bar stuck at 10% and creeps forward until page will not load. My internet works perfectly with McAfee turned off. Common problem with McAfee if you search the issue online. Has not been resolved. McAfee recommends using a different browser or clearing you internet history and cache in order for to work. Really? It's 293, and your VPN is inefficient so the recommendation is to treat your system like it's 1992 AOL Compaq. Reset your rouser or use a different one to get this VPN to work? Terrible product and just plain stupid to put the issue back on the users configuration or system.

Do NOT Buy Yearly Subscription!. I shopped many similar programs and wanted a familiar brand name. Purchased this with a Yearly Subscription and it must be set up as an Automatic Renewal. Installed on one of our five iOS devices. When I started to set it up on my wife’s phone, the app considered it as a SEPARATE (New) account and if I had continued the setup, it would have charged me AGAIN for a full years subscription. I contacted India and had two difficult conversations with the so-called “Customer Service” Department. I requested a refund due to the app not being able to install on multiple “Family Sharing” iOS devices. I was “educated” regarding McAfee’s Refund Policy inasmuch as one of the loopholes in the policy is a statement that a “refund “depends on “where” the product was purchased”. So, unless you purchase this product (app) directly from McAfee, you will NOT be able to obtain a refund from them. And, pardon my ignorance, but I don’t know how or if Apple gives a refund for apps sold to a third party. Because, as you’re probably aware, the Seller and not Apple, gets paid-Apple only charges a fee for the ability to use Apple’s store. I will use this app on my device until such time next year when the small window opens for me to cancel it. I will install Norton’s app on the rest of my devices!

Great Mobile Protection. In this day and age I must have protection for my phone that cost over well over $1,000 dollars and I use more as a total communication and information and entertainment portal than just as a “phone”. The constant threat of apps that are great to use but are in existence only to gather information off of my phone or to perform other nefarious acts through access to my phone and basically to me and my information is exhausting. To even think I could begin to address myself is ridiculous and would see me and most people just running away and starting to watch Netflix or TikTok to just forget about or distract myself from thinking about. I delegate at work to specialists. I know Mcafee from the years and years they have protected my computers. I choose to have the best protection on my great iPhone. 5 star protection from a 5 star company in this highly dangerous age. Thank you Mcafee

Media vault poorly designed. I know media vault might not be the main feature of this app, but it’s currently poorly designed and difficult to use. When importing photos, if you want to choose recent photos, you have to choose the “Recent” folder which contains all photos in the phone. This takes forever to load, since the app seems to load all photos in the phone at once, when you really just want it to load the most recent few. As a result, to import photos into the app, you need to create a separate folder of the photos you are trying to import, then open that new folder in the app so the app only loads the photos you are trying to import. The idea itself is great, a simple local media vault with no useless and potentially risky features such as cloud syncing. Most of the dedicated media vault apps are offered by random individual developers and can hardly be trusted. Thus a trusted name like McAfee is uniquely positioned to implement this simple feature, and it’s sad that the feature right now is so poorly executed. Looking forward to improvements!

From 5 stars to 1. Very bad marketing move!. I formerly gave this app 5 solid stars and a glowing review. McAfee has been on my computers and devices as long as I can remember. Funny, I received a (computer generated) response to my review from McAfee. As a senior executive search professional I know a good move when I see one. Typically I ask, what is missing? I then saw the update for the free version. Unfortunately, I then found other users who are also very displeased with McAfee. There are other free virus / VPNs that can be trusted to work as much as one should expect from a developer. I was about to move up to the paid version of McAfee. I wanted to trust it was really doing the work and see how much better the update would be. They took away the free VPN. Total thumbs 👎 down on that move folks. If you are a major share holder I suggest you insist upon the immediate replacement of your VP of Marketing. Boneheaded move. You have to give to give your loyal customers something more, or the perception of more at the very least, ‘as’ you remove another benefit. Remember class 101? Feature. Benefit. WIIFM. (What’s in it for me?) you took away the WIIFM. Silly move. Reflects badly on the trustworthiness of McAfee.

A Revision, quality VPN (Rating Change from 1 to 5 Stars!). I previously rated this VPN 1 Star because during testing at home, it failed to work properly, automatically disabling itself every time I tried to turn it on. However, in a different environment like a coffee shop with open Wi-Fi, I’ve found that it works just fine, despite a 15 or so second wait for the VPN to enable. It’s working great! New TLDR: VPN doesn’t work while you’re in secure networks, however does work in the presence of open networks where you could potentially be hacked. Apologies to the McAfee Team, and enjoy this app!

Lag when not on wi-fi. When I’m not on wifi It fights with carrier data service when not on wi-Fi, creates loading lag, and often blocks ability for apps and safari to load & reach servers. When you try to turn the vpn off it fights you and won’t shut off. I have to delete the app from device & go through the download process again. Rethinking a switch to another software as this has been an issue for at least 2 years now. Either it isn’t scanning & detecting attempts to hack the software, not keeping up with iOS upgrades, or it’s not able to detect harmful malware on wi-fi & on the device. Really, we need software that scans for malware on a device in this day & age.

Boost Mobile Insurance and Device lookout Protection!. I am not really ever the type to make comments or to review an app, however this app I truly felt deserves others ability to check it out! McAfee, has been a longtime, groundbreaking internet and software malvirus protector! It stands out with its features that make it an honest, legit, customer oriented device app. Whenever you sign into a free Wi-Fi, it will scan that Wi-Fi right away; and then gives you a chance to continue to use (if it’s safe too,) OR it gives you the ability to immediately end the connection, and block its abilities to attack or transfer any of your personal files. I was shocked to see it firsthand that I was ready to add this app to my other devices. I will say from my personal testimony, that you TOO can be protected, and best yet it doesn’t slow your device or functionality down. Great job Macfee, and Boost mobile for adding this cool feature with your device protection plans for cellular equipment! 5-Stars all the way! Sincerely, Brandon O. Boston, Massachusetts

Extremely disappointed PLUS. UPDATE: The developers response is completely outdated and inconsistent with an Apple 13, running on iOS 16. In addition, the send log function from within the app is useless as it always comes back as undeliverable. The app crashes all the time and log me off. When attempting to log back in, it shows that there is no internet connection. Never mind I am on cellular service, the app is set to work on cell service data, and it is the very ONLY app not connecting to the internet over cell service. I have pictures! The VPN has to be constantly watched like a hawk to ensure is actually turned ON even when it set to be ON. In numerous occasions, I noticed the VPN is OFF when it was set to be ON. When the VPN is ON, it makes the internet experience an slow and sometimes impossible to browse. Most of the times, the webpages would not come up at all. Another annoying and really inconvenient issue is that the VPN would not work when trying to connect to the internet with my iPad using my iPhone hotspot. It simply would not let my iPad connect to my iPhone hotspot. The app should make the security features easier to work. They should work the VPN issues and get rid of Safe Browsing! This app needs serious work. Frankly, I am about to go back to Norton. I never, ever had any issues with Norton. The one time I am giving McAfee a try, it is disappointing me to n-th degree.

Horrible. This made my iPhone almost useless. I couldn’t send text messages or use any of my browsers. In fact, it ate through all of my data in two days, exhausting my monthly allotment. This did not work with my cell service at all. I had to delete the app to get my phone working again. Update: McAfee reached out to me asking me to speak with a developer to hear about the issues I experienced. However, they provided a link that led to self diagnostics and was useless. I have offered to speak with an actual developer if they want to call me or provide me with an actual phone number. Very frustrating. I want McAfee to replace the subscription so I can use it on a different device and reimburse me for my monthly cell phone service that the application ate up. McAfee needs to make this right.

No virus or Malware protection. This app is great for backing up pics and contacts but that is it. It does not include virus or malware or browsing protection for your phone. I even have the top McAfee software for multiple devices. Bought it so my I phone 7 would be protected. But it does only back up which iCloud already does I also have MS One Drive so it is useless to have on my phone. I was very disappointed that it does not provide antivirus or malware protection for my phone. McAfee should state that upfront.i upgrade to 2 stars because it now will check to see if WiFi you are using using is safe but still now virus or malware check for I phone7 why can’t McAfee work a deal with apple? The advertise that McAfee can be use to protect up to 10 devices including IOS but that is not true.

Disappointed. First, the majority of websites I try to access, simply for online shopping, won’t even work at all unless I turn VPN off. How is it protecting anything if I can’t use the internet while it is on. It also logs me out on its own. Websites have received my actual location, I started getting scam calls from Canada now, after visiting a Canadian website for shopping. Also, often when the VPN is on, my device will buffer for ages. If I turn it off, internet starts working again. Another annoying thing: Since this new upgrade of December 2021, you can no longer choose which server to connect to??? That was supposed to be one of the “perks” of having a VPN. I’m honestly not convinced this whole internet/device security app is doing anything at all. I would love to know if there is even one pro to paying for this thing? If it is not allowing cookies to be tracked/saved then I can’t even access most websites. Please fix this. How can you charge your customers for a service that can’t even be used the majority of the time?

Too focused on upselling. This app seems entirely focused on up selling you all the things you’re not currently getting. The app should be focused I believe on showcasing what it is you are paying for rather than what you are not getting forefront on the app. I understand that there is a business model that is geared toward increasing user buy in- by uploading your contacts, and using this platform as a cloud like location for storing files. But all of the features that are forefront on the app seem to only show you what you are not getting, and what you could get if you were to upgrade. Personally I would like to see what it is I’m paying for in a detailed showcase. Yes I realize there’s a giant icon that says your last scan results- but beyond this it is a menu of items that exist beyond your subscriptions reach.

this app is a 10/10.. Personally, when it comes to apps such as virus protectant ones, i always check reviews because i could NEVER trust them. so i assumed this one was gonna be a weird type of one where it gives your phone 100s of viruses, but surprisingly it doesn’t. if i’m gonna be completely honest i have 27 viruses on my phone i believe. and i changed everything on it to make sure not only me, but all of my personal information on my phone is. my phone was heating up earlier and i believe this app took the viruses off of my phone because my phone is nowhere near hot anymore and this app is a 10/10. i appreciate that the app makers make these apps because they are basically protecting YOU. and i’m thankful for that because i don’t want my information on any websites that i wouldn’t know of.

Pay again pay again were your virus buy us again. I have three McCaffrey now it won't even show anything that I'm typing because it's gonna be a bad review free through AT&T service online that is the weakest service any American has gift course it's full price is those with a DSL line and one 100th of the band with this is not a free country and that is called discrimination where your government and all of your applications in life need to be online do you have a service that does not work and is weak to hackers constantly getting pet and McGaffey has the gall to say would you like to buy us again and again and again after I check in I've already have that through AT&T because AT&T service show horribly terrible I paid for twice and it still coming back they won't even respond so who's the virus this is not helping there's nothing that they have done to prevent any hackers in fact I'll probably get hacked twice as much just for giving a review what they really do I have

Nice iPhone app that does what it says. This is a well designed app that has a nice look and feel to it, easy to navigate and enough features to make it a worthwhile application to have on your iPhone. No advertising and just an overall low maintenance app that you will forget is installed on your phone until you need it. Some handy features like the Vault where you can “hide” pictures, documents or phone numbers. It does not offer a backup for your phone but does have the ability to encrypt the file you would include in a backup, a feature where it can track a lost iPhone, sound an alarm to help you locate a lost misplaced phone and a neat feature where once the phone battery is critically low, the app sends up to the McAfee Website a location so that way if the battery does die and you have misplaced your iPhone then it could potentially have the last location you may have left the phone. Best of all its free

You WANT this one…possibly. QUESTIONS BELOW…. Hey, If you’re like me & have been trying to find ‘the’ actual working / useful antivirus along with a VPN built in to monitor you’re safety online, protect identity…that’s just a few of the amazing qualities of McAfee Security app. Worth every penny, & I'm likely keeping it for the entire time I have my tracking-chip …erghh, phone..well my 256gb iPhone13 -product |red|- Question: Reasons yet on my iPhone 13 general settings in |VPN & Networks| it says it is connected there to VPN from a McAfee account- I want to know how to get my application ‘McAfee Security’ to work correctly as the VPN section is ‘grayed out like it is unavailable’. I synced it with my profile and still not available on the app - SO: would it be better to uninstall my Application of McAfee Security and then perhaps restart phone and reinstall the app? Since my VPN works however, yet I went into General in Settings to look at which VPN is being auto activated whilst I’m on any Wi-Fi or cellular network, which is great 👍 yet I’d like it to be on the same bar as my McAfee Security VPN application. My iPhone 13 general settings in |VPN & Networks| says it is connected there to VPN from a McAfee account- • Any suggestions on this situation would be appreciated greatly & thank you so much for your time and help.🙏 Michael C.

Seems like a scam just like all the others. I downloaded this app a week ago. It included with the standard free package the safe web VPN. The VPN configured and the app showed I had SAFE WEB and the Ad blocking. Today I downloaded the update. Lost the VPN PROTECTION that went to PREMIUM PAY AND AD BLOCKING TO PREMIUM PAY. LOST THE FREE WIFI GUARD. MUST ALSO PREMIUM PAY FOR THAT NOW. Funny thing is it was not showing in my app updates as a Normal app would for an update. The only reason I saw the supposed update was I went to the App Store to read about a specific feature since once you have the original app downloaded all info in your settings area is minimal and vague. It’s a waste. I believe I was scammed with the original FALSE FREE PROTECTION for a week. It’s a worthless app when they took the 2 above protections away. Really McAfee I expected better of you. Have used your stuff for years. Going to delete most likely and go back to free FYDE. THEIR free protection is FREE and doesn’t change to zero after a week.

Great app! Issues with Apple CarPlay/VPN. Help?. Great app, but I am experiencing issues. I have an iPhone 11 and have the latest version of iOS installed. I am having issues with the McAfee VPN/Web Guard and my Apple CarPlay radio. While everything works fine with the radio (connected via USB), I cannot use Siri if the VPN/Web Guard feature is on. It is extremely inconvenient to have to turn on and turn off the VPN. Especially when I enter a public place where I have previously connected to WiFi and my phone auto-connects to the WiFi connection. An example of my main issue would be something like this: I am driving in my vehicle and I decide to use Siri with the voice control button in my 2020 Kia. I say, “Please call Dad.” Siri will show on my CarPlay radio that it is trying to process my request and then states that, “Siri requires an internet connection.” I am using my Sprint 4G data the entire time while I am driving and the VPN is on. If I turn it off, no problems. I enjoy this app and I am paying $9.99 monthly for it. I would hate to search for other alternatives. Could you please tell me if you know anyways I can resolve this issue? And if not, could McAfee possibly look into fixing this? I’ve searched online and I have seen that many others are experiencing the same problem. Thank you!

Can’t control background scan or request Signature updates. App Settings have no background scan control. After executing an on demand scan there is, in my opinion no reason for additional background scans especially when the device hasn’t even been in use. If it had background scan controls it would be appreciated. I shut off background activity in iOS and scanner settings but it runs background scans anyway. A waste of battery charge. Also there seems to be no way to request a manual. virus signature update. If it had these capabilities I’d give it 5 stars but without some user control I can only give it 2.

Ap rating. If I could give a negative 5 or 10 stars I truly would. Don't believe anything that Mcafee tells you. Especially, If it tells you that you have x number of viruses on your phone, don't believe It, It is a scam to get you to buy a highly over priced security program that is nothing more then a way to get you to give up all your information and GOD only knows what else. I thought that Mcafee was a respected company but no longer, I was told that I had 5 viruses on this phone when in reality there was nothing wrong with it except needing to have a system up date installed. The only reason that I have it on my phone now is so I can place this warning to others not to waist your time and money on it, Generally your phone came with a security program, Use it as it is the closest thing that will work well with your phone according to those who designed and built your phone. Do what you think is best for yourself and your own security, but use the phone’s or another security program that you trust before you go running off into the dark and buy into the fraudulent advertising that came in on your email or messages. Check it out first with a company you trust first. Mcafee will be removed from this phone and its site blocked soon after this review is posted

McAfee Upgrade - Unable to use. I paid in advance an entire year last May 2021. Then due to a recent upgrade I cannot use anymore. The upgrade says I only have 250mps I can use each month, but doesn’t start at zero for next month and blocks use. I cannot get a hold of anyone in customer service as line is always busy. My subscription shows on my phone, but there is no reference number, I am unable to use either site now. I want a refund for the 6 months I haven’t been able to use. In my subscriptions, states I can cancel and upgrade early and they will provide a refund, not sure if I can trust them as unable to verify this. This is also known as bait and switch, a tactic that is illegal to use. I am frustrated that businesses think they can trick people like this They send me a reply and as I stated “bait and switch”, only will give me a refund when I sign up again for a full year. They then will give me a refund where the time frame overlaps which is not allowing me to cancel my current subscription without continuing again. The service has not worked for almost 2 months now, I don’t want to commit to another year. I want a refund back 2 months to the end of my existing subscription. You still cannot reach anyone in their customer service department. This is exactly what Comcast / Xfinity did also. PLEASE REFUND AND CANCEL MY SUBSCRIPTION!

Protection needs some fine tuning. This is a great app to have, since I am always on the internet, and using my Bluetooth headphones for study. The only issue I have is that this app can stop protecting at any given time of the day. If I have safe web and WiFi protection on, they should stay on. I shouldn't have to go back into the app to check and see if both are green. It has become a bit daunting to keep having to go back and check and see if my app is still Protecting me when I had already checked the boxes to do so. This app can throw itself out of protecting you, leaving you unprotected for a period of time until you go back and check. I think you need to fix that bug. If we click on each feature to protect us, it should stay that way all day, unless we go in and uncheck it ourselves. Yesterday I had my Bluetooth, and I had all the protection on, and when I went back to check my Bluetooth, someone had come onto my Bluetooth as another device, trying to get access. That is not supposed to happen if I'm protected. When I went back To the app, which was protecting me prior, it had shut my protection off. Please fix this bug. Other than that complaint it's a good app, but it needs fine tuning. Thank you

Great product!!. I decided to try out the premium feature of this app because I have had online security issues in the past couple of years. McAfee+ Advanced really does an awesome job at helping you track down leak datas and removing your information from the dark web. The password change recommendation feature links you directly to the website/account you need to change the passwords or add additional security features. It’s really easy to use this app! I especially like how McAfee+ Advanced tracks your progress with a score. It’s motivating to take care of each task, so that you’re safe from hackers, phishing, and identity theft. The VPN feature works well at auto connecting if you are traveling and connecting to remote networks. it doesn’t seem to use more of my battery and it’s pretty easy to toggle on and off through your Apple settings. Overall an excellent choice for keeping you safe in the digital age!

Technical issues!. I purchased a package from Mcafee last week and was not able to download it or activate my account. After three calls and extensive wait times today I attempted to cancel my subscription. I was asked if they would give then a chanceTo walk me through downloading and activating my account. I agreed (mistake). Step by step I did as instructed and when I was at the next point to activate I received an error message. When I told the agent I had received the error message and gave her the number she put me on hold and came back to tell me that it’s a problem Mcafee has been having for a few days and they were working on resolving it. Little consideration from them of the time I had wasted trying to activate it. The pure frustration I was experiencing! I then asked for my refund And literally began the same process. Over 57 minutes to resolve it. That is to say to cancel. Now I am researching other programs.

McAfee App Sent Phishing Message. I received the following alert from the McAfee App, that my Wi-Fi was under threat & I should disconnect - “1 threat found. Scan complete. [(MY WI-FI NAME)] - Your personal info is at risk, Disconnect Now!” I was uncomfortable about this message using my Wi-Fi name in a pop up, so I called McAfee & they were unaware of why this message was sent. That Representative told me that it was a Phishing attempt & to disregard the ‘email’! She sent me to Technical Support, when I explained that this alert came from the App. Tech Support was also unaware of this message, but after speaking to someone, ran me through disconnecting & reconnecting my iPhone from the Wi-Fi. As I have not had Wi-Fi trouble, there was no reconnect issue. But then, the tech told me that my PASSWORD was weak (it is very strong) & that I should change it. This felt fishy to me. I tried to tell the McAfee Tech that they should check to make sure THEIR APP hadn’t been hacked. I did not feel that they understood. I then called AppleCare to report this. AppleCare does not have an avenue to contact developers about such issues. I am hoping that McAfee will read this review and check their system. I am trying to be helpful here, and I see that someone actually responded to a previous concern.

Avoid at all cost. I just spent 2 hours and 50 minutes of my life dealing with mediocrity and ineptitude. I am being very nice when I only use those two words. The customer service for account management is so bad that you feel like you’re in an episode of Punkd. It’s so frustrating that McAfee may actually kill me with a heart attack. You are sent to India where their employees are very kind and try to help but have less knowledge of the product than the consumer. It’s not their fault but the fault of the CEO CFO COO at McAfee Headquarters in Santa Clara, CA. They outsource to save money not realizing that we would pay a higher price for, at minimum, decent customer support. It is absolutely absurd that purchasing a subscription could be so difficult. It is unacceptable and i will never do business with this company again. I advise you to save yourself from losing years off your life by avoiding this pathetically managed organization.

Latest update removed the VPN feature without paying for a separate subscription. I’ve been using McAfee security protection on my home computers for years as it was a provided feature through my ISP. When I got an iPad I was happy that it too was covered by the account I had created related to McAfee’s security protection that was part of my ISP service. BUT, with the latest update of this app, I lost the most important feature ... the VPN. Instead of having coverage through the McAfee security feature provided through my ISP, it looks like McAfee wants me to subscribe separately from my ISP to receive this feature. In fact, when I try to log in to the app, it accepts my log in information and even says that I have a license available. BUT, when I select that available license, the system responds by saying that my subscription has expired and I need to renew it. Definitely a money grab by McAfee and a wonderful way for them to lose their loyal customer base.

Reviewed before. VPN is still not operational. It’s like there is a dummy switch installed just to make the user feel better while it’s there to toggle their inability to maintain this app with a working VPN feature. Last big update had a feature that if the VPN was turned on, it would fail to load almost any website and the VPN would turn itself back on and you would know that had resumes running because your webpages would not load. The contact is feedback feature is the biggest joke. You type out everything you want, just to receive an email asking you to go to a poorly designed loop of a series of click here click here click her trying to share the issue so that it could be resolved. I’m done trying. I’ve basically have had a poor excuse of an app that I paid a yearly subscription for and the only thing I’ve gotten out of it is the fact that I can acknowledge that I have wasted my money. After a nice email back I followed instructions and emailed a provided email address with information so they could get ahold of me and I have not heard a response back in almost a week.

VPN still does not work. I came to see if other users had the same issue as me and I was right. Just like other reviewers are saying, recently (at least since the new changes with app UX since April 2022) the VPN does not connect and knocks off the Wi-Fi connection. It does NOT work. My Wi-Fi does NOT work, I have to uninstall this app just to get my Wi-Fi connection back! And yes I’ve tried all the troubleshooting steps and it was set to auto. McAfee needs to listen to the user and stop wasting time with fancy UI done by interns or whatever, we need a product that actually works and could care less about the gamification features being added to this app. This is security for us, not some cute game app. I work in product design and I can tell that proper testing was not done for this version nor the desktop version. Fix this or else you will not have any users to “play games” with. So I HAD to uninstall this app, and when I did my wifi started working immediately!

App log-outs & account number?. Okay, the service itself isn’t the issue. The actual issue is that the app randomly logs me out of my account, and then proceeds to ask for an account number. There is no such thing. The instructions aren’t helpful, as like I said, an account number simply isn’t a thing you guys provide. And, therefor, I have no purpose for the app, and am forced to delete it. And, if I want it to work again, I need to re-download everything. At this point, I have seen numerous people discuss and complain about this, and the fact it isn’t addressed yet is insane. This review would easily be higher, but this is such a fundamental issue, I simply can’t give your service more stars. Needless to say, there needs to be a fix ASAP.

Great app for security!. Keep in mind that this app is NOT a VPN. But it will still keep your security. What it does is it scans your phone/tablet etc for anything that can be dangerous for a virus and such. I have not had any issues with it and it scans your device often reminding you if anything has happened. And I think that this app is a little TO protective because I had it scan once and it told me that I needed to update my phone to the latest version for “the new security”. While that is not really a complaint it is just saying that this app while tell you if anything even resembles a virus or anything. So yeah, great app!

This USED TO BE A GREAT APP. I initially had the live safe product. It was great, and it also covered 5 devices, then the laws changed and mcafee could no longer do some of the scans and many other features...But, all in all it was okay ( 3+) or so. Then my phone carrier switched security apps, from lookout ( I think) to mcAfee, but a different product. Since I had bought a plan elsewhere, already, that was better , I wanted that. Nope, this app, took over, crashed phone, locked up,froze ...it literally over took my product, which was better, instead of what metro forced down my throat. Nothing is included, in this version, it says free, but I am paying for it ,2x, 1 I can’t use with my phone, and 1my phone carrier bills extra for, that you cannot remove , or you can’t insure phone. So , I not going to upgrade and pay more for nothing

In my opinion based on DBA and life experiences…. Many people find a problem with McAfee’s billing and I feel like it is fraudulent and planned. They are price gouges and must constantly be asked for a refund when they increase the amount they try to get you to pay - taking from accounts using information they have on file. Most of my friends use Norton - and I’m considering changing also - due to unfair trade practices and financial abuse and emotional abuse of me as an elderly customer… this is their business model/planned - and I believe it is unfair trade - and violates federal interstate, FTC, and ICC. Further that their BOD should be prosecuted and sent to jail. They take advantage of people based on their ethnicities also- ie those who are not educated and/or don’t know any better due to mental deficits - low IQ’s or poor decision-making abilities for other reasons - ie lack of experience…

Vpn. I used to be able to change my vpn location. With the latest update, I cannot. The app seems more about selling services and pushing to add more devices in a menu with only 5 options- why list the option to add devices twice? But it will not allow me to run security scans at will. Each option on the app tells me what it does but nothing to really change or affect the operation of it. And my phone has been acting glitchy ever since the install. I gave it a chance since it came previously installed on my hp. But it keeps running ads for me to give it more of my personal information and install more services. When you took away my option to change vpn 4 days ago, you really made the product pointless to have. I will be uninstalling it and going with another security company that isn’t constantly interrupting what I’m doing with ads and soliciting more services. It also did not detect the viruses on my dell. I won’t be renewing my subscription.

Great Security App. This app is perfect. I originally used McAfee to keep my computer safe from malware and it worked quite well. Then I heard of this app. My oh my was it good. It had a safe place for my precious photos, with password lock. And it had safe web, which is a very nice touch. I use this app alongside an adblocker (I use Adguard) to keep my mobile browsing ad free and safe. By the way, you can link your phone to a pre-existing McAfee subscription like the one I used for my PC so you don’t have to buy several of them to protect your devices. I do have a minor complaint though, even though McAfee has a very user-friendly interface, it lacks the ability to have more advance options to specifically target certain things like malware. Plus the app can be a little buggy. Otherwise great app, worth your time. P.S. I am 14 years old. Thanks for reading this. Now get off your phone and go outside!

So far so good. I like that it’s from a reputable name that’s been around. I’ve had other pic lock apps that disappeared and left their app unsupported. I also love that this app encrypts your locked photo on your phone only - so there is no back up on the cloud or their servers etc. It’s also great that you can turn off Face ID for locked pics and just use a pin. Also great that it does video locks too. And finally I like that it tells you with an alert of a private pic is still in your regular iPhone photos. My upgrade suggestion is to allow users to create folders. It’s hard to see what pics you have there if you can’t organize them the way you want it.

so i have mcafee. alot of good features on mcafee but they have not stopped the forces of country meadow lane tomball texas these people in this neighborhood are very bad people who steal identities and mine is one when i went to the app store to rate this app it said i did not have this app but indeed i do this app let me know my data was breeched tried to call customer care spoke with them they tried to tell me the breeches were just a password breech when it was telling me that it was name breeches and where they were and they didn't have anything to do with password yes they are accurate in the breeches because i new someone has a credit card at Nordstrom i had found that on credit report now since yesterday identity thief hacker are signed up thru me on mcafee all 5 have the same wifi ip address as me cant keep them off my phone want help or something better than calling support update the hackers you were to help save me from are using the account under my name i canceled the account but they are still using as me tried to contact app developers like email said followed the link and got app support but nothing that i have not tried already

Amazing. I know its hard to believe spending so much on a security software system is worth it, but it is. I can download this onto any device from my phones, tablets, and computers. My four year old son lost my tablet since I let him use it and we thought it was irretrievable but than I remembered this. Mind you we haven’t seen it for two days straight and checked its location and activated an alarm. The alarm turns the device on, even if it’s off, and it turns the volume up even if its down. We found it. Plus if we didn’t find it I was able to wipe the device from where I was at on my couch. It does so much more than just provide virus security, it provides theft security, and protects me when I surf the web using public internet. In all I feel so safe.

Cant find where to contact them. I signed up for the year, but after downloading this, my phone went crazy! Email letters wouldn’t open, safari didn’t work, something is wrong with my search section, every time I look up something I get the: cant connect to server, WiFi is out.. basically. It won’t let me search!!! I spent a long time one day looking for some sort of way to contact them. I found a customer support somewhere in one of the sections, I have sent them now 2 letters trying to cancel my subscription! They have not even tried, nor sent me any messages as it said it would when I was in there support. I cancelled by letter/email before my trial was over.. so now, because they can’t read messages, I may be stuck with this app! I’m guessing this is how they trap you! I’m extremely disappointed!

Performance. This is an extremely important app tool as most people use their smartphone as they previously used a computer or laptop. The value of our personal information becomes even MORE important changing solely to a smartphone for either your main online needs or your SOLE online needs. Do get online on ANY device without McAfee Security. I was a Norton user and even though I am very tech savvy, I had data compromised. I will NEVER use Norton again. I have had McAfee for some years now and haven’t been compromised with my personal information once. Actually McAfee is very aggressive to help me navigate websites and warn me to websites that I never knew exposed my personal information no matter what settings I used on my Apple phone and their security settings, and my HP computer and Microsoft security settings. I can’t myself believe the large difference and the confidence I gained after I started using McFee products.

Need help. I’ve had problems with this app letting my settings be changed turning off safe web. My passwords don’t work after just changing them they’ve been compromised by hackers. iPad gets has been hacked I just got fixed by Mcaffe now it’s happening again. I’m using my old phone because my new iPhone won’t turn on anymore. My location changes on my login always Sydney popping up along with my actual location on other times. Got told last night by McAfee it’s the app settings I’m logging into r wrong. I don’t trust the app enough cause settings change and logging in just shows something dodgy is happening. U can tell when your phone/ iPad / computer is having problems or hackers in the background. Flickering, things not working properly or u get errors when u try to log out the of apps with different location. I know there’s something wrong but the app won’t show anything is happening, I can clearly see on my iPad blue lines jumping from app to app highlighting it blue lines moving across the screen and nothing from a scan. I can’t trust even talking to support cause is it just the hackers I’m talking to and letting them in more to my devices. ? Need help McAfee

Nothing like I needed.. I know McAfee therefore why I installed it, have scanned numerous times today and it can't find the google membership malware add. This is my child's pad so I have it protected as much as possible and have personally never downloaded anything not from the istore. I have checked every app we currently have and none are from somewhere else, so very disappointed McAfee couldn't hunt out simple browser spam such as this.

Very buggy lately.. A lot of non-responsive blank white screens and crashing. Takes forever to log out and longer to log back in (Believe me I needed to in order to attempt to get it to do something). Something went wrong somewhere with a recent update.

Nothing like the P.C. version. Was hoping this would be like the P.C. version but it is nothing like it. Turning on Safe Web turns on VPN which means you can’t access anything (eBay, seek etc). Turn off Safe Web and everything works again. You can’t schedule a scan either. Sorry, but I’m uninstalling this app and trying a different one.

Battery draining fast. Ever since I put McAfee on my iPhone the battery has been draining really fast even with my screen so dim & I have done everything technically possible to stop the battery from draining so fast but still my battery drains fast!!!

Limited phone network use this year. For most of this year I haven’t been able to use most of my apps unless I was on wifi. After trying many different steps to rectify the issue over many months I finally deleted this security app which resulted in return to full use of my phone on my phone network. Need to test your app against new apple updates (I presume that’s why my access changed) to ensure you aren’t blocking use.

Poor customer service. I have received very poor customer service from the McAfee team. I have raised concerns several times that my VPN turns off routinely even though it is set to “Always protect me” and when I spoke to someone on live chat they kept me waiting for over one hour. I raised my discontent with formal feedback and I never received any response or recognition of my feedback. Very poor customer service. I did like the app and McAfee in general but now I will not renew my subscription at the end of the current cycle.

Service & Support. I don’t know how long I have been relying on McAfee, maybe 20 years or more, but for the couple of times I thought I had a problem, it was very quickly sorted. I’m happy to be a customer of McAfee.

Doesn’t work at all. I have a fully paid McAfee subscription that is supposed to cover all my devices as well. However, on my devices after I have downloaded this useless app as directed, it constantly asks me to sign up for a free trial. There is no other option given. A subscription on your PC does not cover any other device. Will definitely not be using McAfee again after the current subscription period is over.

Never again. Cannot use data when safe browser is applied. It’s a pain, I will not be renewing this anti virus

Review - virus protection. visiting websites without a lock beside the website means that website might not be trustable or real.. keep an eye out for what you search up. This app is legit and has helped me stop viruses and weirdos from getting into my phone, get the app people. x

Scammed. I’ve been receiving possibly the same approach Kath has reported. Since paying for my protection late in 2022 I’ve received daily warnings “ Final warning - protection has expired” . Prompting me to renew it at a discounted rate etc...

Poor UX. App constantly logs you out and requires you to re-login. Asks you to scan your home wifi constantly, even though you’ve saved it previously. Takes ages to load the app with the dashboard sometimes, so you restart the app to get it going. VPN is good but can be slow to connect at times. If you use both safe browsing and the vpn, sometimes the VPN won’t turn on because the safe browsing is on, in the app if you try to turn on the VPN it fails instantly, so you have to go to the iPhone settings and physically switch to the VPN, and then turn it on/connect there or in the app. I’m not renewing my subscription.

I have been scammed by an outfit imitating you. I paid to you as you were demanding I paid my subscription as was due to expire and I did . Little did I know I was being hammered with emails. I was sure I had paid you but I think I was scammed. I noticed you took out of my account $200 odd dollars when I’ve never paid that much before. I am there cancelling auto renewal

Latest Update Is Terrible. I’ve had McAfee for a long time. Had no doubts over whether the app is on / working in the background up until the latest update. With the latest update it feels every time I go in to it I need to sign in. I don’t know how long it’s been logged out, have I been unprotected for a day or for a week? Also previously could do a system scan with a press of the button, now I cannot find anywhere to do it. This feels like a dumbed down version just to sell other features like VPN. Give us a user interface which gives us comfort and control over the devices protection.

Scam. If you ever get an emailing saying your payment is due Phone the company. That is what I do I pay nothing to anyone who sends me emails Robynne

Not compatible with Apple. After I contacted support I’ve been told they know about the issues on apple products but unfortunately those issues are still not solved after months. There are issues when it turning off real time scanning automatically and it’s hard to switch on as the whole software crashing all the time. Sometimes I can’t even open it. On the mobile version same. All the time I’m logged off without reason. I’m also bit disappointed they advertise on website VPN but the thing they not support VPN for Mac I’ve got after I contacted support after purchase. VPN on mobile not optimal as well. I went to dodge web got fake notifications and have to restart mobile. But the same web I tried with different antivirus was blocked straight away

Not worth the price.. Don't like it. If you turn off the VPN, it keeps turning itself back on. The VPN also stopped me being able to access lots of services I access on a regular basis (despite being connected to an on-shore VPN - Australia). Instagram doesn't load at all including the web page in Safari. It blocks searching the iTunes Store. It blocks downloading purchased items from iTunes. Other meta apps work (Facebook, messenger...) and other Apple apps work and allows downloads. Frustrating. Thankfully only took free trial through Telstra so I didn't waste $$ on this.

Saver. I got a virus in my phone and I was petrified as I didn’t know what to do and I was downloading heaps of apps but they all cost money but this app did the scan for free and said I was all good and for that I am forever thankful so Thankyou so so much

VPN Change Region Seems to be Windows Only. Every other feature works perfectly but I just find myself a little disappointed that the main vpn feature doesn’t even work on my IPad. I really hope that you’ll add the feature to more devices soon.

Confusing!. Whenever we change devices, it’s utterly confusing to add McAfee. Constantly go around in circles. My husband just realised he’s not logged in on his mobile? He never logged out of the app after initial installation & logon - so how and why did it log off. Without warning or notification….

Grrr. As soon as I turned it on I can’t connect to the internet on my phone. I’ve had to turn it off. So frustrating. If support doesn’t get it fixed soon, I’ll be requesting a refund. UPDATE: The issue has been resolved. If anyone has the same problem, contact the technical issues dept. I have an iPhone 12Max Pro. I’m in Australia. The VPN in my phone conflicts with this app. I needed to download another McAfee app to resolve the problem. McAfee Safe Connect.

Travis Johnston. I sourced this application through the Telstra application and had such great hopes but unfortunately through no great fault(s) of their own (stand up for your right to own, manage and run your company) the government of Australia has pulled the wool over the general public and uses modern tec to rewrite the app using unfair software licences tailored to suit themselves. You can work the rest out your self.. thanks

Surf without fear. Loving this Safe Web - after a recent security breach at work I’m very conscious of surfing the net in my downtime and who might be lurking trying to get my private information. Well done McAfee 👍🏻

Greatest. Love your work but you are just a bit expensive if you dropped your price a bit you would get heaps more people,,I’ve been trying to sell yo to my friends but $$$

T. Have had good recommendations for McAfee. The app did take a few days to recognise my subscription but overall gives a good sense of security

Safe Web section is horrible. Basically my search is so slow when this is on. I turn it back off and everything speeds right up again. Please make it faster, I can’t handle using it when it takes at least 20 times longer to load.

McAfee security. I’ve had thus not even 24 hours and my brand new phone and accounts were compromised.. attempting to switch it down for many hours as it seemed to function when and how it needed, finally I was able to sign out but hav been fixing m phone and wifi at home from much damage to my accounts... please look into Norton and McAfee I am not finding your app services to be legitimate lately!

Good protection. Sorted my phone out quickly and it is running much better and I like how you can connect multiple devices!

THE APP GOT HACKED. My phone was hacked and the app was forced to quit! Twice!! And the setting were changed in the app, when I would scan it will say that everything was fine. I did reach out for help but what I wanted wasn’t there. Still to this day my phone is been compromised 😔 so disappointed as it cost a lot for an app that does nothing! ** I have a phone of the app sending notification saying it was forced to quit. AGAIN !!

Must have app. Great app. Backing up your contacts and WiFi protection is second to none. I had lost my contacts when I purchased a new upgraded phone, but McAfee restore had restored all my contacts and didn’t lost a thing. Keep up the great work! It’s a must have app.

Doesn’t seem to protect. This app is supposed to stop people hacking your information doesn’t seem to be working as we have had four separate attempts at logging into our devices in two days obviously trying to access threw our wifi being that it’s all in one home luckily I check these things regularly and have max settings security for all apps why is this happening why am I paying for this when it’s not protecting my stuff

Scans for Free. Allowed me to download and scan straight away for free. Many apps want you to sign up, scan as part of premium or won’t scan at all. Great work McAfee.

System scan 👎 VPN👎. When I have the McAfee VPN on it drops my internet speed by about 80%. Quite often my phone will start loading a webpage and just not finish, as soo as the VPN is turned off it works fine. The system scan never picked anything up on my phone. After checking for anomalies manually found that there were 3 viruses that had recently been picked up. If I could rate it less then one star I would!

Subscription. Can not find my subscription end date or information on which of my devices are covered by the subscription so that I can get coverage for them.

Vault needs improving. That photos can’t be deleted within the vault is baffling (why is there a useless button?). Also, any gifs are turned into still images when imported. The vault is sluggish to use and there’s no option for creating folders.

Not Detecting iOS Software Update. Ever since I updated my iOS to iOS 13, McAfee Mobile Security has stopped detecting iOS out of date as a system threat even after I untick “Apple iOS software out of date” under the “Ignore these threats during scan:” section?

Not too keen on auto renewal. I have had this in my iPad, phone and laptop. I have had no issues with it. I don’t know really what it is doing. I got it because my laptop was painfully slow. It hasn’t fixed that problem. It still takes about 3 - 5 min to open. It now wants me to renew. I have changed my CCard since then. I can’t find out how much it is trying to charge me, and hen the antivirus starts giving you “warning, pay us” pop ups, it is doing what I bought it to protect me from.

I want a refund!. They keep deleting one star reviews. McAfee failed to detect any of the major data leaks in which my information was compromised. It’s also failed to detect any of the compromised passwords Apple was able to warn me about for free. VPN interferes with major sites like Netflix. Customer service kept telling me to check identity protection, ignoring me when I said I had checked it multiple times on both the app and browser.

Great app but needs support in landscape mode. Great app but please consider supporting landscape mode for iPad users. It’s also a bit frustrating when you can only view the items in your Media Vault in portrait mode.

Blocks Legitimate websites. Overall good product but blocks legitimate websites, including large companies like airlines, when wifi us not available. I tried to get support through their online support maize & reached a dead-end. Now have to turn off safe browsing to access the web when not on wifi…and that is suggested in their help!!, which really defeats the purpose of online security.

Convoluted program. It seriously does not make life easy and even adding laptops and desktops devices to the program keeps telling it is all “at risk” yet won’t let turn on firewall protection. This whole program feels like all talk no action. I would research more thoroughly for programs and apps that are far less complicated

Great just….. Been using McAfee in my devices. Pc device works great as I can change my vpn location in drop down list. But the mobile one needs to download the other McAfee app to change your VPN location.

Latest Update Terrible. My app updated three weeks ago and now it won’t open. It just keeps saying oops - something’s wrong. I have sent the error log to McAfee several times and it still doesn’t function. Not much use having it on my mobile if it doesn’t work!

Great app. I would recommend getting this app, because you can back back up your contacts and protects your wifi which is really good. It also has a media vault which stores any photos, videos etc. safely which I use and I think it’s a good idea to have that feature Which is why I’m giving it 5 stars

McAfee Security App. I’ve been using this app for a while, and I’ve found it easy to use, well designed, and quite good for Security for your device and for Wifi. They keep me informed on any security problems, in addition you only need to tap once to check the status of your device, and whether there are any present threats. The basic cost is low, but I think to upgrade to cover the Web is somewhat overpriced. Robert Adelaide

Deborah. I’ve been using McAfee for quite a few years and I’m very happy with it and it protects all of my devices. I will continue to use it for the near future.

VPN gives me Grief. Hello Team, this So called VPN has given my iPhone mobile & MacBook Air grief & has been stressful for me. Can you please make our life simple & stress free buy giving us an update that will solve issues. Today my HP printer 4100 series did not connect to MacBook Air. It kept asking for VPN. I couldn’t find the VPN. How painful I had a cake & could not eat it. Latest HP & Mac & Wifi / cable & couldn’t print reason VPN. Your grievance customer

App is really good, But. I really like this App, however every time that it does an update, I turn iPad off and on, the VPN turns off and I have to manually turn it back on! This is a bit annoying as I would have thought McAfee would have a solution to this already. Everything else within this App works great and I cannot fault it. Just need to fix the VPN.

Worst customer service experience. I feel I have been scammed by Mcaffee. I bought an annual subscription. Something happened between the purchase and activation of the account. I received a confirmation from apple that it was bought, the money was taken from my account. However, I could not activate my subscription. I spent 45 min on the phone with McAfee representative who was not interested in seeing a confirmation of the purchase and could not find any record of the transaction. When I asked for the case reference number he simply stopped responding and the call dropped. I emailed the customer service 48 hours ago and still have not received any acknowledgment or response. I have submitted a refund request to apple. I feel I was scammed. This was a bad experience. I won’t recommend this product or company.

Awful. How I get my money back? This horrible piece of software won’t let me connect to my secure home network or to my cellular provider. I’ve deleted it and now my phone works again.

VPN not always worked. Every so often the VPN does not want to turn on or turn off automatically even though I choose the option all of the time on. Also, when a new version is installed, the protection does not go back on automatically. I therefore have to log back into my account. Undesirable when I have a few devices to protect.

Attrape à poissons!. Faites attention à l’achat! car ils ajoutent automatiquement le renouvellement de l’abonnement et vous aurez une belle grosse facture l’année suivante...

Mobile App Not working. Well was excited at first to have my phone protected. Downloaded the app then when going to the next page, error message mentioned safari can’t connect to internet. Which clearly is incorrect, had no choice to delete it. To the developers please fix all errors of this app. Continue with the fixing and moving forward hopefully it gets improved properly. Peace

Abonnement. Wie kann ich unerwünschte Anwendung bei Eintragungen löschen

Slow down iPhone. Greatly affect display of contents making me deleting the app after two days of use. Even Google search was affected - not only slowed it down but at times the search wud not even response , ie auding an indefinite wait the the user. Similarly when using the google map. When using to read articles from other apps such as wechat or google news, not only slow but some contents such as pictures wud not be shown , so u will see blank spaces instead. Tried disable background refresh, disable vpn, disable cellular within the app, but problem still exists. Greatly affected normal operation of the iPhone. Hope they wud seriously look into ths problem.

Very poor spam protection. Since I switched from Norton to Mcafee I now get quadruple the amount of spam getting thru.

Great app, but a few flaws. I love this VPN, but why do you have to pay for more services? I don’t think it’s worth paying, but great app otherwise.

Continually signs me out every 2 days!. The app signs me out every two days! Not much use for this app. It’s family one year coverage from Bestbuy.

App doesn’t work Error 400. I don’t write reviews, actually this is my first on the App Store. I’m disappointed in this app since I renewed it back in 2022. I can’t log into the app to make changes. Whenever i tried to log in, I received an error 400 code. Rep told me there is no solution to this issue as of yet. I requested a refund and McAfee is telling me, they can’t give me a refund because I already downloaded the app on my devices. I paid for something that doesn’t work. Never again will I purchase from this company.

We tried to contact by email. Check your developers email is not working We can send you and issue we just wasted money

VPN does not work. Frustrating app - cannot change country on vpn

The app on my celphone is telling me I need more licence. I have access to 5, but just used 3 … The vpn is still working but I can’t access settings on the app. I will try to restart and reinstall.

Cancel. Like to cancel my subscription plse

What do I do. I canceled my subscription in apple settings and the app won’t let me delete my account because it says that I still have an active subscription even tho I canceld it in settings

Omegle. Can u make it so it works on Omegle it’s a website if so mcafee would be five stars and it would be amazing

Pop-ups. You get a ton of pop-ups. You do work to block them, rather than McAfee stopping the spam.

Donald. Poor product works well then garbage …. Paid for renewal then can get the product service better get Norton or other virus protect…. Just like Facebook with many people dropping it and new batch people coming in

Piece of crap. Want to get any information you have to enter a code from an email. Have an issue about one of the reports you have to get a code from the email. You have to get a code for this you have to get a code for that it’s just plain sucks

Very low end these days. This is my 3rd vpn + security and it’s the worst one. I have it set to NOT be on vpn while I’m using my data, but it doesn’t listen. I have to switch it to “safe browsing” because I can’t use my data and the internet unless I do. Once that’s changed, I can access my data and the McAfee app to shut it off. Brutal! Also, the icon “vpn” is showing at the top of my phone, but my vpn is off. When I turn it on, the vpn icon doesn’t show. I thought paying more would get a better vpn, but that’s not the case. Going back to bitdefender or expressvpn because they always worked like they should.

App not working properly?. Appears since Apple's latest iOS update (15.7) for the iPad the center “services” tab on the McAfee app has stopped working on both of my iPads. Just purchased this app set it up worked great then updated Apple iOS and 😢the McAfee app stopped working correctly.

The connection. Why can’t i connect myself in this app?

I wonder. Not certain what to think about this. McAfee tells me I need to update my ios and my update service tells me that at 15.7 I am up to date.

Le prix. C’est quoi le prix pour s’abonner ?$$$

Not good. The vpn isn’t good expensive purchase for one year that’s the last time never and never again….

HORRIBLE SERVICE. Stay away from this company! The support is horrible. The man on the other end was talking about oranges and I was talking about apples! A complete disaster. Then when I asked about the company and the developers , he was skating. I don’t want to deal with Russian or china made products! Give it a

Not working. This app spends more time not working, than actually working. It’s always loading and when this app doesn’t work it affects the rest of the phone. If the VPN is not working we’re unable to use other apps or go online. It’s annoying and frustrating. This app should automatically scan on its own without having to always go in and scan 😩. I uninstalled and reinstalled the app on all devices and still having the issue! It’s annoying.

Fantastic app. Best Mobil security and VPN

McAffee. Je l'ai même mis sur mon vélo...

Exercise caution. Might be coincidence but everytime I use this app to scan with different email address they get hacking attempts couple months later. I feel like this app leaks info on the dark web

IMPOSSIBLE TO CANCEL SUBSCRIPTION. I have been going in circles on their website trying to make sure I do not get billed but there is no ability to cancel. If I get charged I’ll dispute immediately. Also no contact information available except for a phone number.

It’s good. It’s a really good app but can you make it so it scans every hour or make it so you can set every time it scans and then send a notification saying the scan detected something or not but other than that it’s good

Service client direct nul. Application conviviale et présentation agréable Produit performance très bien. cependant il est impossible de rejoindre le Service client Canada) de faire affaire avec un représentant via téléphonique ou adresse courriel pour expliquer sa situation. Service client archi nul Sur le site officiel on te dirige dans un dédale d'articles ou de liens en boucle (les douze travaux d’Astérix) un peu façon Apple mais eux y répondent au client et téléphone par dessus le marché. Onte suggère même de régler ta problématique en contactant la communauté (de leurs clients je présume ) J’ai un bug a dans mon compte McAfee suite à l’achat d’un forfait top promotionnel et il est impossible de remédier à la problématique sans eux.

Complex à installer sur plusieurs ordis. Je tente depuis 4 heures à avoir les mêmes protections et services sur 4 appareils différents mais chacune affiches des données différentes. Quels casse-tête

This update sucks. The version before this was way easier to use and I could use the tracking feature. Now I can’t even turn on the tracker or the last location option anymore. You guys broke the app with your “modern” attempt at improving the app

États-Unis seulement. Tenté de compléter formulaire du courtier à l’information. Et ce n’est pas possible pour les résidents canadiens. Je paie pourquoi alors?

fix bug. high i

I can’t delete my account >:(. I would like to delete my account and your website and app do not show me in any way how to do it. As well as your “support” is all In French, I even changed the language and it STILL was in French so how am i supposed to get the support I need if I can’t even read it? This is really unsettling and you would think it would be easy to delete an account or at least give instructions on how to do it. For a company who is supposed to secure your information from viruses and such you would think there would be an understanding that maybe, your customers won’t want you to have their information anymore. So if you could please delete or tell me how to delete my account that would be great. Another thing is that I try and contact you by email and I get told that that does nothing AND TO CONTACT SUPPORT THAT I CANT EVEN READ.

Antivirus McAfee j’ai déjà acheté seulement aidez moi à installer svp. J’ai besoin l’aide pour mieux installer mon antivirus déjà acheté svp

McAfee. Best security on the market love it get won’t regret it 😊❤️✌️✌️✌️

Terrible. App always requires me to re log in and can never remember me, leaving my phone vulnerable. Not worth the money, completely annoying

You get what you pay for. If you buy this app then pay monthly. Do not buy a 1 or 2 year sub. If you get problems you’ll lose your money. There are no refunds. They say they will call you back with a tech but they never did. I call them so far 4 times. Same story a tech or supervisor will call you back in a few days. Never happen!!! Still the app on my iPhone says I don’t have a sub. Just losing my money to these thieves. Most lucky have to use another company.

Questions. J’aimerais savoir si l’app détecte tout les virus et si elle peut les supprimer car je ne sais pas si il y a des virus, même si c’est écrit « Tout semble en ordre ». Donc j’aimerais avoir des réponses bientôt svp merci!

Ok?. I’m honestly not sure what to say about it, but whenever I turn on the secure vpn it doesn’t allow my wifi to work for some reason, but when I turn on the safe browsing it works fine? But I like to use the secure vpn so im not sure what to do😓.

Continually disconnecting. I have to check every time to make sure my vpn and safe browsing are turned on because they are constantly disconnecting on my iPad and cellphone.

👎. you can’t do anything for free on this app. needs you to pay $3 a month for a wifi scan/protection score💀

not impressed. Right now not impressed. Nothing is working on the app. Computer just went through a 10 min download icon no longer works you tell me. Not sure anything is even working. Can’t check status . ??????

Excellent. Best App

Rip. Rip

Privacy. I am not rating the app for how good it is in doing it’s job. I an rating the app for its no privacy. Your mentions and care about privacy are joke. Your app strips each and every app, every interaction user has with its phone, tries to make a virtual topology of user’s network, and a lot more, and you don’t give a single genuine reason of why it’s required. I do not know how good your app is because I have uninstalled it in the past and never used it again because it is too intrusive.

Too many issues. McAfee has too many issues and poor customer support. My VPN no longer works and when I called McAfee for support they just passed me from person to person without resolving issue. After hours on phone and having to call back, they said they would escalate and have someone contact me. After two weeks not hearing from them, I contacted them again. Finally someone called but I couldn’t get back to them right away so they marked ticked resolved. Issue still not resolved. Seem more concerned about their ticket than their customers. Also expect renewal costs to go up substantially each time.

360 review. I’ve emailed about a phone virus I’ve had for like 2 months,You told me to follow the directions of your response which I did which entails for me to enlisted in another subscription for 9.99$ a week aren’t you supposed to take care of that?I mean isn’t that what the name 360 is about? I still have the virus it doesn’t come up on the McAfee scan…idk what to do😣 I contacted support and it took all of 5 minutes to handle my issue! They are still THE BEST! Thank you so much for everything!🙏🏼

Great app.. I strongly suggest getting this app. I had it on my laptop and saw an ad for it on mobile, so I decided why not download it. I downloaded it, set it up, it’s great! It takes less then 3 minutes to set up if you have an account, and it’s extremely easy to get the hang of. I also love how you can backup your contacts. I once accidentally wiped all my contacts and realized I had it backed up. So not only is it great for just in case, it also saved me about 250+ contacts. Anyways, this is one of the best VPN apps I’ve ever had and I very much suggest using it.

Absolutely the WORST. I purchased the plus plan for the year and the subscription didn't upgrade to my phone so I had to contact customer service. The customer service is a third-party company which has the worst phone connection and the worst internet connection, it kept disconnecting while I was talking to the customer service rep (on the phone and online). When the 'PLUS PLAN' finally upgraded on my phone it completely slowed it down restricting access to my server and to most of my other apps. I had to turn off the app in order to contact the customer service again to figure out what was going on. They couldn't figure it out so I got a refund - so stressful. NO STARS DESERVED

I hate the so called upgrade. Just upgraded to the latest version of this app. The first thing I noticed is that it no longer checks my phone for viruses. It only checks my wi-fi. Then, I ran a scan in my wi-go and the app said it found an issue that needs attention: My iOS software was out of date. So I upgraded my software. However, the app still says I have an issue, so I click on the “Resolve” link and it takes me to a page where I am supposed to see the issue, but there’s nothing to see. Why does the app continue to tell me there is an issue, when there isn’t one. I sent a message to support and got no response, so I canceled my subscription and deleted the program!

Error 404 Unable to Cancel unreliable & non-working program. Worked at first then stopped, by giving 404 error messages without any way to connect to support as it returned another 404 error. When I got notifications telling me my trial is ending by 8pm I phoned them from a landline phone and told them after trying to reinstall it ) and it still have error 404’s) I said I no longer want to keep this unreliable program then I was told that it’s too late to cancel but I just got the notification and it isn’t even 6 pm yet. They refused to let me cancel so be aware that it can start out working then unexpectedly quit and you can be left with no working links to respond and no easy way to just tell them you want to cancel.

Mistakenly installed under my name. Need to uninstall. I need to uninstall it under my name—Louise Baumgart. Mistake I need it to be installed on my device under daughter-in-law’s name, Kimberly Baumgart, as she already paid for it and is sharing it with me asa family member, which is allowed. I am 77yr. Old with limited tech knowledge or skills, due to poor eyesight and hearing. If you could please help me straighten this out. My son, John Baumgart and wife Kim are contacting you about this. Help, please. Thanks!—Louise Baumgart Technology-challenged

Frustrating app. I have to log in with email and password every time I open app on iPad. No fingerprint option. Screen freezes and have to close app. Keeps telling me I have a message but it only wants me to upgrade services. Keeps telling me my contacts are not backed up. Not even sure it running virus scan in background or if I’ll have to do that manually. Not very intuitive. I have tried to include other devices in my 5 device paid subscription but the website keeps saying it’s a free trial subscription. This is way too hard to navigate. Apparently the software cannot differentiate between a paid and free subscription. I will not be renewing any of the subscription options. Lots of bloatware.

Satisfied. My name is Richard, and I’ve had my home PC for about 10 years. For the first three years, I have no security other than the security provided by HP and Windows, and had nothing but problems being able to get online, was any kind of a efficiency, due to all the bugs and viruses, that had infected my operating system. I’ve had mcAfee total protection for the last seven years, & I’m as satisfied as I can be, without having to spend extra for A VPN, or military encryption software. So thank you very much McAfee keep up the good work👍🏾!!!

Great app but.... This is a great app and definetly worth having on your phone for protection and its very simple and easy to manage but not sure what’s going on with the app lately where turning on “safe web” is not working. Even after I tap on the icon to turn safe web on multiple times it still wont register it as on-and at times when the icon successfully turns green to mark the safe web as on-once I go back to the home screen it still shows as safe web off.. Not sure how to fix this, I’ve restarted my phone a few times and still no changes...if there is a way to fix this bug that would be great

New update isn’t working properly. I’ve used this app for years with no issues. With the most recent update, I keep getting a notification that I need to setup my identity monitoring. I’ve done this several times and it does this several times a day. Please fix this issue. I only have this problem on my iPhone. It works fine on my iPad. I’m running the most recent iOS update that was released in the past week. It’s really annoying, especially since I’m paying for a yearly subscription to have protection on all of my devices.

Subscription. I purchased an all access subscription and added my pc, my cell phone and my husband’s cell phone years ago. I’ve been renewing my subscription every time it comes due. I’ve had mobile security for at least 10 years if not more. My husband’s Facebook account got hacked last week so I called McAfee and was on the phone for two hours which included chat (got disconnected) and then called a tech that I could barely understand (no offense, but I can only understand regular English but not English with a heavy foreign accent). I was finally told that my All Access account doesn’t cover my iOS devices. I am so upset because I’ve been paying for this for years. Not happy at all!

Update: Unknown account number. Account number, what account number? My mcafee subscription has no account number, except my email. App recognizes that I have mcafee account but request account number. Update: I saw what I missed. At sign up, it will say account number and at bottom it will say new account. I click new account and screen says email and password. What I missed was at the bottom, the sign “new account” changed to “Already have an account”. I then was able to sign in. It was too easy to miss. Instead of account number, it should say “new account” or “existing account.”

McAfee Security:VPN & Privacy. The apt doesn’t do much. You try to send a link for another system and it kick you back to your Home Screen. I spent 20 minutes yesterday just trying to find a phone number to talk to customer service person. The chat response from Jose response was you need to contact customer service. I can’t tell if my phone is covered for the apt store won’t down load the apt. Really disappointed with this new portal they speak so highly of. This is the second entry. The app doesn’t do much. Go to the website to update things but you can’t remove things. Just a lots of screens to sells stuff but no real support. Attempted to contact live support and all you get kicked back to the virtual assistant.

Don’t believe any of the high ratings for this app. There’s this constant battle to get the private browsing to operate & again this evening it went haywire & stopped working. I went back to re-install the VPN’s& now the private browsing won’t work & the other vpn just decides to stop working on its own while I’m browsing. I double checked all my phones info & nothing was wrong. Why can’t y’all leave anything alone? Everytime something works fine your engineers screw it up w random updates. It’s unnerving that we have to get frustrated for a service we pay for that can’t get anything done right. The app constantly unchecks itself from doing its job then creates a ripple effect on all the other apps.

Virus scan and VPN are my guards. I trust this brand for years, and have even invested in stocks (why not?). The VPN saved me the hassle of having my information stolen (again) after forgetting to install it on my new phone; after dealing with the damage (replacing credit card, blocking the account, monitoring on any online financial activity), I realized that the virtual bugs and viruses are a big problem to keep at bay. Now, I only have to update the app once in a while.

Works great and keeps my phone protected. The McAfee app works great on my iPhone 11. The VPN is peace of mind that my activity is secure. I was concerned that this app might slow down my phone but I haven’t noticed any performance issues and my phone works like is always did before installing the app. I browse the web, use social media, send and receive emails, and use a lot of apps while on WiFi without any issues. I bought the annual subscription to protect my phone and computer and it is well worth it.

It’s good but.... Hi so I have had this app for a wile now and it seems to work well but I think that the 4 things it’s supposed to protect you from should all be free and I understand not EVERY thing can be free but some people may not have money for the protection they need.... besides that I accidentally clicked on a virus app and did not know and quickly got off I got on this app and checked if I was ok but resized it only does WiFi and contacts also pics the rest you have to pay... all I’m requesting is that you could make all four free because now I’m worried that I have a virus. Y’all are the only app that I trust to help me all the others are fake .

Less for more. This company is becoming a joke. I downloaded this to scan my phone for spyware etc. not to give me a fake security score that was formulated in 1.5 seconds. It’s just as worthless as the desktop version. They tell you we stopped a program from sending suspicious activities but then they don’t tell you what program!! All these warning and high fives to themselves for the program doing things for you but it never tells you what it actually did. It could all just be fake notifications for all we know. Just as fake as the security check that took 1.5 seconds. Developer response. Contact support!!! Nice. Like that’s going to make the service better.

Made connecting a big challenge. Respectfully, while I am very happy that I have a VPN to now protect me while on certain networks or from cellular; since I got this app connecting and using the internet and apps has become very challenging. Internet service has service has become choppy, at best, and expletive producing at worst. The ability to connect to my home or work network is long and challenging and sometimes when I finally connect, I will get booted and need to reconnect through the whole process again. When using the VPN, I cannot access my Ring device cameras at home and when I am trying to stream from cellular data for websites or music while driving, I get booted or it simply won’t connect. Unfortunately, after spending the hefty fee to get the VPN and other services, I now must decide whether I want to remain consistently frustrated about my internet and app access, or if I risk opening up my phone, etc. to the vulnerabilities I got the service for in the first place..

Subscription. My subscription was ending and I was on the McAfee site and it told me to install I installed and it wasn’t taking. There was a number on the site so I called. They said they needed to get into my computer which I let them do because it was on the McAfee site so I thought it was legitimate and it wasn’t. It was a scam that was $150 so now I’m out $150. I then called McAfeeand they assured me they were legitimate. I gave them $375 and now I’m not sure that that’s a legitimate one either. Why does McAfeeput things on there site that aren’t legitimate i’m very disappointed and very upset. I thinkMcAfee reimburse me. I will never use again. I will be contacting the Better Business Bureau also.

McAfee Security’s. Done this one other time this before I was with u all Thanks a live saver Thank God “Drivers my game everything going paperless so everyone has too have them computers I’m 60 years old we are paperless I’ve seen more then a few loose there phones in a mixer trucks jobs site’s 🙏 Gods good and I’m going fishing Thanks and Bye. Fishermen have a good day u right it put a nickname for me I have things too Catchy does it 👀 likes present 🎁 I’m justified by having McAfee Security’s too u all that I sure couldn’t do what u all doing great 👍 message was not happy 😃 I’m leaving call me 👻 a grumpy old tuff mother Times like this

Not what I expected. I subscribed to the 5 Device Protection Plan for our family PC, and all of our mobile devices. When I added my phone, it took me to the App Store to download the McAffee App. Before downloading the app I made sure to read thru to make sure my phone was compatible. The app says it is compatible with all iPhone iOS devices, so I started the download. When the app opened, it looked nothing like the preview on the App Store. There is no scan button at all. Then I find out that Apple doesn’t work with other antivirus programs so I basically paid for a plan I don’t need. I will still keep my subscription, I will just downgrade to the basic PC plan.

Doesn’t give you fake viruses 🦠. I’d like to say I’m only 14 and I don’t have any money whatsoever but all I need to do to see if I have any viruses is to press the scan button. So far for the past 2 years it hasn’t said anything and I haven’t even have had to pay for the protection. I tried 3 different anti-virus software and one of them said that I had 39 viruses and if I didn’t get rid of them in 1 week my phone would be shut down. 3 weeks later it didn’t get shut down. And that’s why I love McAffe, it doesn’t give fake viruses just to make money

Why do we need to pay. Why do we need to pay so are phone are safe I have looked at a lot of app and every one I need to pay for I should not have to pay for my phone safety I get that this is going to help that why I put one star but I’m not shore if I can trust this app even with the reviews and the rating people should not pay for there phones safety because since I have to pay or a free trial that tell me that I won’t work and you want money or that if I want to have my money for needed thing I have to pay for my phone safety that why I’m righting this I believe that if I put this do that you can have full stars and phones can be safe this is why I will not get or use a app to protect my hone that I need to pay for thank you to any one how reads this.

1803 windows 10 update left me B@@!$ out!. All my devices got hacked with bad@$$ mean worm trojanspysomeware after update. I purchased mcafee aftet i got hit cuz microbrains support advised me only use defender...mcafee couldn’t find it after and remove it with their scanners but i have no blame for them, after I started using security no malware at all! Before hand all my accounts from fb to Experian were taken over. To people out there over 40, take these kids seriously when they tell ya passwords are weak, but strong ones get taken too. Pay the year, save 20 hours or more of your time! Do it

Initial concerns. So I just recently installed the app and created an account (less than 2 weeks ago). So this is just an initial review. My first concern is you expect me to I trust you with my security but you can’t process special characters in passwords. That is a serious oversight that must be addressed immediately. Besides that glaring flaw things seem to be running smoothly. The program doesn’t seem to slow down my phone; I like the fact that pictures are encrypted but not backed up to the cloud. The built in VPN feature is also very convenient. Please address the password special character limitation.

Amazing helped me out ALOT!. I downloaded this on too iPads I first checked on this everything was clear and fine then I checked on a second iPad, and it says that something was wrong and stuff like that with my WiFi it’s not Secure. I started freaking out I kept scanning and scanning it just kept showing the same thing. Then I realized it showed me what to do to help secure it so I did the steps. And checked again everything was clear! This helped so much I would of been lost without this amazing app! Definitely would recommend.

Media Theft of another kind. I would not purchase this product solely for mobile use. There’s only so much room to alter, add to, or improve an iPhone. Apple’s in the captain’s seat and there’s not much left that’s not fully in their control (there is no second seat on this airline). I did see the usefulness of the media vault, but as it was rendered null this month, I am left remembering the Blob, the monster that threatened to destroy everything by absorption. IOS 14 absorbed your Media Vault, but at least, we can hide, encrypt, and password protect our naughty pics without rolling over in bed.

Review. I have had your service for years now and can’t say I am happy. I have two laptops and a tower which has McAfee protection that are now useless because they have have some virus. Someone has breached them so I shut them down. This phone was infected and it took Advast and Google to resolve the problem. Now, this program. I can’t make everything work. I can’t get a read out of what it’s doing or done. Yes, I am a unhappy customer. What your the best at is billing me for your service which is not provided in real time. James A. Goudeau

I consider you one of the best. But I had you in my laptop and Mobil till my husband decided to hack every device imaginable and I cannot keep him and his sister from getting in my network that’s how they remotely connect she works in engineering phone company makes it easy I pray to God you can block them from my network as well as my emails I cannot open a Facebook account cause they managed to give a big and close my accounts my brother had past away they stole all my memories from him he died of Cancer ... that was the most painful thing they could have done but God will do for me what I wouldn’t want to do to them ... I hope your app is well worth it I need protection more then ever...

Trusted Name. So I am familiar with the name McAfee. It is synonymous with computer security. I don’t know much about the inner workings of iPhones or Tablets or Laptops either. I just know that there are hackers that want the information on mine! Yours too if your not careful., I feel better knowing that McAfee is in my computer and other devices keeping my info safe. So far, so good. The cost is more than fair considering how it would be if my accounts got hacked. I am a happy customer.

Best. App. Ever. So this may sound dumb but all of the games on my phone kept crashing. It was so weird and I started to worry that I had a virus. I downloaded this app to scan for any, and there were none. But, the really cool thing was that it told me that my software needed to be updated. My phone hasn’t sent me a notification so I didn’t know. Not only did this app help me make sure that I didn’t have a virus, it helped to make sure that my phone’s software was up to date. Pretty awesome app. Five stars

Trash App Don’t Buy, Waste of Money and Double Paywall!!!. I got this app and it told me my information was breached and to upgrade for $5(original price was $10) and I did. When I got it I couldn’t go on the app immediately, so I just went on a couple hours later and it told me my free subscription was over and to upgrade for $60. I didn’t even use the app and it already wants me to pay a second time?! After that immediately deleted the app and made sure to cancel the $5/$10 monthly subscription they had me subscribed too. In the end I just ended up wasting $5 on their “subscription” If you want to waste your money come to this app here, but if I were you I would spend my money elsewhere

Disappointed With Recent Update. Been very satisfied with McAfee for years. Never had trouble with updates to the product, but recently an update reset the subscription on my Mobile. In trying to fix it, the app requested account information that did not exist to reinstall the app. Contacted support and after a lengthy chat and telephone session the problem was resolved only to reoccur hours later. Not sure why McAfee can’t provide updates without having to spend precious time trying to work through support to get a reliable fix. Be prepared to deal with bugs from this product and be prepared to spend substantial time with support to keep it up and running.

VPN Issues. The app is great, however I’ve been having serious issues with the VPN feature, which appears to be something others have been having problems with as well. The VPN take an unusually long amount of time to connect. My primary issue is that whenever I try to connect with the VPN my phone drops the Wifi network and I get a message in app saying the VPN cannot be established because no network was detected. When I go the the iPhones settings the VPN tab says it’s trying to connect but only succeeds about half the time. I’m constantly having to uninstall and reinstall the VPN configuration to get things to work. I also have not been able to change the VPN “When to protect me” setting in the app. It’s stuck on the option to auto activate when on an unprotected network. Whenever I try to change to another protection option the app gets stuck on the blue ring loading screen and the setting never actually changes. I’m hoping this reaches the developers attention and that these issues get resolved…

Review. So far y’all have been very good at getting some of the people who have been in my phone as security breaches I believe are gone. But I think y’all should take a closer look at my information, because there are still some people in my phone. I say this because I continue to receive messages. I still have that woman attached to my mother-in-laws friend request who I have been friends with for years. I would appreciate it if you could at least let me know how to do a scan of my systems myself if it is allowed.

Excellent customer service!. I had an issue installing this app on my phone and frankly I was pretty agitated. I wrote a not so good review on this page and indicated what my problem was. After couple of days I received an email from the app developer and I was pretty impressed at how concern and enthusiastic he or she was about my problem with the app. The developer showed me In very clear steps how to fix the problem and it worked beautifully. Thank you so much.

Buggy. Update : all the previously noted ‘bugs’ are still alive and kicking after the 10/23 update. Since this app is part of a paid subscription, I am NOT volunteering my time to troubleshoot this. My fee is $10,000 per hour, 5 hour minimum, paid in advance. Your request for free tech support from customers is particularly unsavory, since there are multiple reviews citing the same issues. **************** Not too sure what is going on lately. App has always been buggy, but the flaws seemed stable / consistent. Since the Sept 2023 update - not so much. Logs me out almost daily. VPN feature is hit or miss and will toggle on its own. In addition, many other apps do not work when VPN is active. I get it - that’s what VPN does, but many of the apps are well-established.

Not good for IPhone 13. I had my brand-new iPhone 13 for about three weeks. I downloaded this app per peoples suggestions because I wanted to keep it safe since I had invested so much money in this phone. I set it up as directed and everything seemed to be going fine until about an hour later my phone went haywire. I ended up having to turn off everything related to the McAfee App in my settings to get my phone to even work again. I called and they said to delete the app and re-download it and it would fix the issue. I did this and it would not even accept my login. I called again and they said it was an ongoing issue with McAfee and to try again in a few hours. I rinsed and repeated several times and nothing helped. I ended up deleting the app off my phone and it still does not work properly. According to the app and website I don’t even have an account but when I call customer support they claim I do and they don’t see an issue. They closed my ticket and said it had been resolved. Thank you McAfee for your lack of understanding, not helping, not caring, and messing up my new phone. Never again

No customer service that’s helpful. The app works great until you have a problem. When I tried to contact customer service, the person that answered was hard to communicate with because English was not there primary language. I ask for someone in the USA and was told they couldn’t do that. The second call I did get someone in the USA but they couldn’t help and needed to transfer me to a supervisor, I ask to please only put me with someone in the USA. I could barely understand them because they once again had very bad language and hung up out of frustration. I then tried using social media (Facebook) and did get a reply the next day, FROM ANOTHER COUNTRY. So now I’m paying for a service I can’t use and McAfee really doesn’t care. PLEASE READ ALL THE REVIEWS BEFORE YOU SIGN UP FOR THIS SERVICE. Hopefully this will help anyone considering this app. Personally, I have gave up. Update, October 27th now. Still not getting the service I purchased. Don’t get this app. They will take the money, sent automated replies and not fix the problem. Do a search for top VPN, you won’t see this even on the list. Much less top 100......

Better than old versions and competitors. As much as I LOATHE Bill Gates, and his DEVILISH evil plots against humanity and worldwide crimes, including human trafficking for profit and pleasure- he is only just one more example of a loser, amongst the other rotting human flesh, ancient, decrepit and senile world elites. I usually hate supporting ANYTHING that monster Gates has been affiliated with in business… I must say this desktop and mobile by McAfee is better and more streamlined/tactful than any previous version. Also, I have regretted purchasing other brands of “security”, just to have more hacking done and fraudulent activity created, using my identity, through back-door identity-theft access points. I RECOMMEND THIS. I DO NOT, repeat, DO NOT- recommend supporting Bill Gates, or any of his rich thieving idiot cronies that have been ruling the Flat earth- using naive Americans and humans worldwide to be their Left-winged-Communist-totalitarian-puppets through divisive political propaganda. WAKE UP PEOPLE! BE A CRITICAL THINKER, Americans! OR WE REALLY WILL NOT HAVE A FREE COUNTRY, like, TOMORROW!!

Got Issues Big Time!. Your McAfee Security software for my iPhone must be a joke! My scan notes state that despite my phone's software is not current as it ought. Also noted that my home button fingerprint control is not being actively used! The scan notes that these 2 Issues should not pose a Security threat to my device! Really? My McAfee app has obviously been compromised by my uninvited cybercrime low lifes. I doubt you will get this feedback. Get back to me if you have any suggestions for me to remedy this matter. I plan to report this to the US FTC as soon as i can do so. Howard Carver

Bought 'Total' Protection. Update: I called for a refund and found that, yes, it IS included. Egg on my face. The customer service was knowledgeable and quickly resolved the issue. Five stars. Old: Purchased the 'Total' Protection from their website, which lists smart phones, and now I'm being presented with more things to upgrade to. I don't want to pay $60 for "total" protection for "all" my devices then have to purchase additional things to protect my smart phone.

Always Secure. I believe McAffee is a secure and trustworthy service. However, we recently had a cell phone stolen and we had to use Google to try to tack it. McAffee should have an easy and faster way for customers to search for a lost or stolen device. Perhaps an option available in the app so on a different device under the same security, we could have taken faster steps at locating our stolen device. I’m not sure how you could go about doing that but I’m sure it’s possible these days with technology. Also, I am having issues adding files and photos to my Media Vault.

iOS anti-virus??. Does this app provide anti-virus for my iOS devices? It’s a rather simple question that is not answered. Sure in “ protects” my iOS devices as I surf the web. But I have to found a way to scan for viruses like I can on my Windows Laptop. So once again, does this app provide anti-virus protection for my iOS devices??? DEVELOPER; This is a simple question that needs to begin with a “Yes” or “No”. Beginning with ANYTHING else will be seen as a smoke screen indicating that your doing your best to avoid answering the question. So, McAfee responded with the typical response of not answering the question with an answer but a statement on how they notify you if iOS needs updated. DUH!!!!!! I keep my iOS update without them telling me to. I’m glad I got a deal on something as limited as this. McAfee, don’t respond to this as you’ll most likely only direct me to another one of your useless explanations that explains nothing but how great and wonderful you think you are. I’ll be getting my antivirus protection from somewhere else..

No follow up after request and never notified when system is down. I sent a text message to the site, and of course they said they will be in contact with me well that’s now been more than 48 hours and nothing has happened. I just click on defined out that the system was down and again no notification about the system this is something I have complained about over the course of2+ years being with this website. I am now looking at other providers that will provide the security yeah they promise hopefully somebody add this company will read this instead of just putting it in the trash. I’ll re-post if I get any response at all. Thank you!

Not as good as it was. I wasn’t sure what to title this. I’ve been a paid subscriber for a least two years and have been satisfied with the services. I recently updated to iOS 14 and have had issues since, so much that I’ve had to offload the app in order for my other services to function. I shouldn’t have to turn off VPN but I’ve done it to use my streaming services but it miraculously turns itself back on. Web browser also moves very slow. I’ve had a call with customer support so they’re aware of the issue a d I hope it’s corrected soon because I’d like to be able to continue using the service especially since I’ve paid for it. Thank you and have a great day.

Big telemarketing SCAM: Beware!. I downloaded this app thinking it would be great protection for my iPhones and iPads. As I proceeded to inquire about the in-app purchase to upgrade, WOW — what a HUGE scam! All I tried to ask in their “chat” session was how many devices are covered by the purchase? Some obnoxious third-world moron then asked for all my personal data, I started feeling uncomfortable, and I cut off the chat although he never answered my simple question. Think that ended it? NOOOOOO!!! In one week, I’ve received 68 calls so far — 68 — wanting to “follow up” on the discontinued chat! Luckily, I’ve blocked them, BUT THEY STILL KEEP COMING! I deleted the app, but these criminals KEEP CALLING!!! Please, Apple, do something about these telemarketing ghouls at McAfee! This is totally wrong! I’d never buy this app now, NEVER, NEVER, NEVER!!!

Horrible VPN HORRIBLE APP. Run from this service because it can’t even work correctly with a VPN so why trust it with anything else? You can select if you want to turn on the VPN when YOU want to and that’s what I select. Despite this the VPN turns on 100% of the time . If you click the slider off in a few seconds it turns back on! This VPN blocks my banking app and my Ring app and this is why I want to choose when to use it. Despite telling it to turn off it turns on! I haven’t called Mcafee since not in the mood to speak with someone who they outsourced to in another country. I also have Mcafee on my Mac which I deleted since do not want a company who can’t even make a VPN yes or no option function correctly having access to my entire system.
