I have the paid version. It's just as pointlessly aggressive as the PC version. You have to have everything on or you are a bad person. It just complains all the time. VPN is fine but it also limits you access to certain websites at all like ign or Amazon. I had McAfee and it was not as intrusive but useless. It is why I switched. Anyway little explanation on why a scan has issues besides having to turn everything on does not help. None of these products are all good.

Decent virus scanner, but you can't disable notifications advertising other products, only notifications for the entire app which isn't great for security. It also forces you to allow all-the-time location tracking just to do a one-time WiFi scan, which is total BS. The developer response claims this is necessary, but I have other network scanning apps that only need the permission while the app is running, not all the time. Lowering my review to one star due to the misinformation.

11/15/2024- Webshield keeps shutting off for no apparent reason. Last update went through. So it has nothing to do with that. Just wish there was an ALL IN ONE suite instead of having to pay for additional AVG tools. When I had AVG years ago there was an all in one. 2023 - Subscription is much better than it was in 2021. Could still use an additional tweek - 'Ability to set up automatic scanning schedule'.
