★★★★ Nanny Moo 6/25/2026 v26.6.0.260325387
everyday I have to turn the VPN on its riduculous and frustrating especially when I keep getting calls from the same people over and over when you this should be blocking them very hard to contact, email says reply I replied and it came back same problem everyday sometimes even twice in one day I have to reset VPN that was your last response and I tried it, it still happens and I've given up turning it on and doing whatever it says because it DOES NOT WORK it's an Oppo 78 email me respond ther

★★★★ Roman Koziol 6/24/2026 v25.13.0
installation is slow with problems
★★★★ Scott C 6/24/2026 v26.11.1.260616601
Scan Center is gone. Only scan available is Smart scan pop up.Typically this new version is worse than the old version. I'm uninstalling and going back to 26.3. Clearly another example of GENIUS tech bros. Translation: stupid, stupid, STUPID!!!
★★★★ Holly 6/24/2026
Two subscriptions and it doesn't specify or distinguish which one is installed; Ultimate or Premium. Charged for both! Paid twice but not receiving the benefits of what was paid for! ZERO support because Avast has 3rd party sellers.
★★★★ Mohammad Al-ABBADI 6/24/2026
I'm bought avast ultimate 10 devices and this is the worst company I've ever dealt with and recently they made it extremely difficult to reach out to support and even when I managed to get in contact with them they just ignored my problem after asking me for a lot of information and I provided them with everything they asked for and they just stopped responding after that.
★★★★★ Logan Smith 6/26/2026
Ever since I downloaded the new app, the vpn has been unavailable
★★★★★ Dreimal 6/25/2026 v26.0.8.251105937
it was good... now even payment... no way... no support... last year
★★★★★ Dr Ali 6/24/2026
Seems free to try with a hard sell to subscribe or be left with too many ads and data sharing. the app wants a lot of access and constantly especially for 'core protection' that includes notifications, pass
