It's good for what you're paying for. It lets you know what accounts or passwords are breached, and it searches for insecurities in your wifi or device. However, I do dislike how the VPN turns on periodically on its own despite the fact that I chose the setting to manually turn it on when I need to; in addition, the VPN doesn't work and my browsers and apps such as YouTube start buffering. After deactivating the VPN, apps become normal. This was never an issue before(customer since 4-2-23).

Since the last update, this app cannot detect when I'm on the internet. Every time I want to turn a feature on or off, I get an error message stating I'm not connected to the internet when I clearly am. I've emailed customer service, sent data reports and researched tons of information on the customer support website without success. Can someone please fix this huge glitch? This has been occurring for quite some time without repair. Thank you!

Appears to work fine, but scammers say they're going to renew my subscription at an exorbitant price! Thank you for your response - I always check the sender's email to avoid the thieves! UPDATE: Nothing works - VPN, Scan, NOTHING! I tried troubleshooting and sending the file to you but it wasn't zipped and is too big to send. I'm looking for the receipt where I purchased this and request a refund!😡 Still a problem with scammers, trying another way to stop it. If unsuccessful I'll let you know

You can learn more about common cyber scams and how to avoid them here: https://www.mcafee.com/consumer/en-us/landing-page/retention/scammer-education.html. Thanks!
