Comments on McAfee: Stay Secure & Private for Android

★★★★★ elizabeth meek · Aug 25, 2026

McAfee is a solid, trustworthy product. I have been a user since 2016. If you’d like my opinion, it is the best security app on the market and worth every penny!

★★★★★ TJ Köstaz · Aug 30, 2026

Edit: I'm awaiting a resolution for my problem cuz my address still can't be put in, so I can't utilize some of the features but the assistance I got was paramount, the woman I spoke to literally stayed on the phone for hours trying to figure out how to fix it, in that time she gave me a massive discount, my problem was mostly solved, and she helped even set it up on my laptop. She escalated the problem, so I'm awaiting a resolution but the customer service was second to none.

★★★★★ Ricky B · Sep 12, 2026

Been had McAfee for over 10 yrs. My devices haven't had any issues as far as web attacks or stolen data (Knock on wood). I have an awesome protection with McAfee & hope it stays that way.

★☆☆☆☆ Hugh James · Sep 3, 2026

I again have had significant problems with McAfee security. The VPN again has refused to engage on public Wi-Fi that it says is unsafe, it just point-blank refuses to engage. Thankfully, my contract is soon to expire, and I will be off to a more professional outfit rather than this lot of bumbling amateurs. I am deeply suspicious as to why I have difficulty with the VPN in an area where it is supposed to protect my phone. Shoddy con job.

★☆☆☆☆ R Subramani · Sep 4, 2026

Not showing notification status bar though battery usage set to unrestricted. Email Guardian, manual scan, file Shredding, Google play scan not available. Files downloaded from browsers not scanned in real time. Seems the app is in hibernation mode. Identity Check also not available while avast One provides the above said features.

★☆☆☆☆ Black Knight · Aug 30, 2026

Fast battery drain and 90% of the time I can't access anything online. Turn VPN off and everything works. Turn it back on and nothing. What's the point of paying for a service that doesn't work 90% of the time, and I bought a 2-year plan. Definitely will not be doing that again. Was never a problem before only the last year it's been getting worse. And no, I will not contact a useless support department just so they can't fix it. Nest thing I can do is warn others to they don't waste their time.
