McAfee Privacy & Security 4+

I decided to try out the premium feature of this app because I have had online security issues in the past couple of years. McAfee+ Advanced really does an awesome job at helping you track down leak datas and removing your information from the dark web. The password change recommendation feature links you directly to the website/account you need to change the passwords or add additional security features. It’s really easy to use this app! I especially like how McAfee+ Advanced tracks your progress with a score. It’s motivating to take care of each task, so that you’re safe from hackers, phishing, and identity theft. The VPN feature works well at auto connecting if you are traveling and connecting to remote networks. it doesn’t seem to use more of my battery and it’s pretty easy to toggle on and off through your Apple settings. Overall an excellent choice for keeping you safe in the digital age!

Thanks a lot for sharing your feedback. We are really happy you are having a great experience. :)

This company is the worse! Not only was I charged without my consent. When I did call customer service, they told me that I would have to pay $189 to cancel a subscription. I told them that I don’t have a subscription. They told me that I was active on a desktop as we speak. I told them so your active with the dumpster? My computer broke over 8 years ago? So how am I active? Also active on an iPhone 8. I never had a iPhone 8! When I told them that I want to cancel and want a refund. They told me that I have to access the same same desktop to cancel the subscription. I told them multiple times that I don’t have a computer or desktop or never had an iPhone 8. Customer service told me that than they have to charge me &189 to cancel a subscription I never signed for. when I told them I’m not paying for something I don’t have. They hung up on me. When I called again the same guy answered the phone once he heard my voice he hung up on me. This was 2 months ago. And they still took out $199 out of my account. than I get another email that they are going to charge me $499 for a renewal. When I called again. And told them that I been cancel. they told me the same thing! That the only way I can cancel an account and contact I never signed that I had to go on my desktop that I been threw away 8 years ago to cancel. I had to go to my bank and block any transactions from them! Even after I asked to speak to a supervisor, the guy (customer service) kept hanging up on me!

Great app, but I am experiencing issues. I have an iPhone 11 and have the latest version of iOS installed. I am having issues with the McAfee VPN/Web Guard and my Apple CarPlay radio. While everything works fine with the radio (connected via USB), I cannot use Siri if the VPN/Web Guard feature is on. It is extremely inconvenient to have to turn on and turn off the VPN. Especially when I enter a public place where I have previously connected to WiFi and my phone auto-connects to the WiFi connection. An example of my main issue would be something like this: I am driving in my vehicle and I decide to use Siri with the voice control button in my 2020 Kia. I say, “Please call Dad.” Siri will show on my CarPlay radio that it is trying to process my request and then states that, “Siri requires an internet connection.” I am using my Sprint 4G data the entire time while I am driving and the VPN is on. If I turn it off, no problems. I enjoy this app and I am paying $9.99 monthly for it. I would hate to search for other alternatives. Could you please tell me if you know anyways I can resolve this issue? And if not, could McAfee possibly look into fixing this? I’ve searched online and I have seen that many others are experiencing the same problem. Thank you!
