I wish I had known about Norton 360 and Norton Genie before I received a scam text message that almost caused me to lose everything financially. As scammers become increasingly clever and harmful, we need more tools to protect ourselves. Norton 360 offers an affordable, reliable subscription that provides peace of mind, while the free Norton Genie app actively detects and blocks spam and scam messages and emails. Protecting myself with these tools has made all the difference—don't wait until it'

I like that I can take a screenshot and back out before anything happens. Then use Genie and show it the screenshot. Tells me if it's a scam right away and so far all of them have been scams. This is a good app to have.

So far Norton Genie has been very helpful to me with checking for scams and sorting through things I have screenshotted recently that didn't feel/look kosher.

Just downloaded this app and tried to test it since I got scammed yesterday. Gave the details to Genie, and it promptly told me that it is completely safe. This was my first use, and if it cannot even identify a legitimate scam, I am not sure it's worth at all.

No, it doesn't read your txt messages, and it didn't flag from TikTok – which I have zero engagement with. It brags good many 100K messages it's already found (no, not on my phone), and then it asks you to copy – ergo, into memory!! – an SMS or image for it to Genie it. UNINSTALLED.

Edit: downgrading from 4 stars to 1 star. Has not worked for days - keeps giving me a 'didn't go as planned' message.

NordVPN has a new system within pro protection also a free one check up too. It's Nord scam checker that analyze text messages and unknown links, that works way better than this application, nothing personal. Truly doesn't work because I have checked the same link" with this app Nord popped up within seconds, saying WARNING big red letters. This app said we are sorry errors. Don't waste time. Use NordVPN today get better protection and stay safe online.

Lately this app seems to not be able to know whether the information I enter is safe or not. When I first started using this app, it seemed to work fine, but now it wants my permission to dig further. Why should it need my permission to find out if the information is safe or not. I thought that was the purpose. It seems to be like Mcafee with the I Don't Have Enough Information On This Site, or It said It found telephone numbers
