If your phone is infected with a virus there’s a high chance that this will do nothing because it’s a app and it works on a sandbox just like every other Apple Store app. (Which is the reason why you can’t get a virus from the Apple Store because it won’t be on your device). So if you click a link and get a virus somehow or by jailbreaking your phone which is the easiest way to get a virus then this won’t protect you at all and you need to hard restart your device because that virus will be on your main device while this antivirus will be in its own sandbox unable to do anything. But it does prevent you from getting to the point where you do get a virus because it detects malicious websites, texts and stuff like that. And also Norton is a very reliable antivirus brand and is very well-known so they wouldn’t steal any of your information. So it can be still worth it but if you do get a plan make sure you get a plan for your computer and phone because it works best on computer.

Apparently on iPhone 16 at least, you cannot have Norton safe web turned on and use the auto connect features for the VPN. Even though I have my home Wi-Fi excluded from automatically turning on VPN when connecting to Wi-Fi, it continues to connect every few seconds, even if I turn it off. It turns on even if it’s turned off in the Norton app. After two support sessions the solution was to turn off Norton safe web completely. So we have two options. Remember to manually connect to VPN went on Wi-Fi is away from home., Or turn off Norton safe Web. We can’t have it all, yet.For context, I had this issue or a similar issue on the older Norton app and on the older iPhone. This is a new iPhone 16 Pro. I have followed all the instructions and I’ve cleared all the VPN profiles to delete the app and reinstalled. I’ve also tried the airplane mode trick. And a few other suggested.as far as them removing data from the personal data brokers, it’s impossible. I’ve used Norton LifeLock 360, Experian And others. After a while, it seems they just give up. The personal data continues to pop back up on the same sites. I would think they would realize this and change their claims and not charge for something like this. Because it obviously does not work. Even if one site gets shut down, the people who run those sites can spin up an unlimited number of new data broker sites.

I’ve had Norton 360 for years. I recently bought a new laptop and installed the program. I did several scans after I installed the program and Norton assured me It didn’t detect any malware. I kept getting redirected on the internet and finally took the new laptop in to my local tech shop. They found malware and bogus certificates on the computer that Norton said was fine. While my computer was in the shop, Norton charged me for my annual renewal. I was unable to cancel because I wasn’t using the internet. When I was finally able to call about the issue, I asked why their program didn’t find the malware and phony Microsoft certificates. The tech person said that you need to call them so they can help you set it up on a new laptop for the first time. They should include this information when you purchase the program but don’t. I asked for a refund since I’ve had to pay hundreds of dollars to get malware removed from my devices Norton was “protecting.” I’m still using it on some of my devices since they wouldn't give me a refund but I no longer trust Norton to detect anything since it completely failed to protect my laptop and home WiFi from malware and phony certificates.
