★★★★★ David Bole · Sep 21, 2026
I've been using AVG for nearly 16 years, and it's awesome I'm finding it hard to write anything more than that honestly not one not even a hint of anything dodgy happening that's how good AVG are I also still use it for my work phone that had to be very secure for Security purposes, I highly recommend AVG to protect your Phone's thank you AVG 😁👍
★★★★☆ John Casserly · Sep 29, 2026
I definitely feel secure using AVG. It's been my default protection for decades now, and it hasn't let me down. No VPN though, it is way out of my budget despite all the prompts to install it.
★★★★★ THE EPERCEPTION · Oct 17, 2026
Great mobile security. I used AVG mobile for a long time on multiple devices. The great thing is also because you can update the virus database definitions manually, which is a plus.
