So far, AVG is great. However, I use a password AVG gave me when I first paid for one year. It worked one 2 of 3 I had to download then it said wrong password. I tried 3 times to use THEIR password. It's to frustrating and time consuming. It found a problem and I will have to fix it. After I've used it and checked other devices I'll probably be upgrading it to a five. I haven't downloaded it on many devices as I have this problem every time. I spend 1.5 to 2 hours and can't deal with it.

Decent virus scanner, but even the PAID version can't disable notifications advertising other products, it's annoying and intrusive. The developer response falsely states you can disable this, but that is not a notification setting within the app. It also forces you to allow all-the-time location tracking just to do a WiFi scan, which is total BS. The developer response claims this is necessary, but there should be an option for a one-time scan with only one-time permissions, other apps have it.

Hello Kyle, to sustain the development of our anti-virus, we need to show ads in the free version, thanks for understanding. We only ask for access and persmissions that we need to protect your device properly. Permission classifications in Android are very general (to be able to perform a small action we need to ask for a whole permission).

Most apps and sites won't allow the VPN to be active to use them. Switching between 2 apps for the purpose of multitasking is horrible. I leave the indeed app to look at the location of a job in maps and when I switch back to indeed my app refreshes losing the place I was at. I'm not closing the app I'm just off it for a minute. Similar results also when switching to & from other apps while attempting to multitask. Wished I'd known this before paying 20$.

Hi, we offer tools to solve your problems. 'Local Network Bypass' lets you access local devices (printers, Chromecast, etc.) while on VPN. Plus, 'Split Tunneling' allows specific apps (like email) to bypass the VPN and connect directly to the internet. Hür*AVG

What's new

* Easier navigation – We moved it to the bottom of the interface for easier access with your thumb.
* New features – We’ve added Privacy Advisor and the ability to auto-clean your device and automatically scan your Wi-Fi for potential threats.
