Phone takeover hassle
Phone takeover hassle
App & PortalDon't buy it — it hijacked my phone, simple as that. For two days every app I tapped showed Malwarebytes ads trying to sell upgrades; it even blocked other cleaners. I finally used CCleaner and got rid of it, relief. I’ve used other antiviruses and none were this invasive, so yeah, sketchy but solved.
Longtime but not perfect

App & Portalit just worked, quietly cleaning stuff. I'm in IT security, so I notice the rough edges — updates sometimes fumble, UI could be less cluttered — but protection is reliable and I still keep it on my machines.
Couch-side relief

App & PortalI was half-asleep on the couch when I got that alert about weird activity — that’s the exact moment I knew this was worth it. The app's a bit clunky now and then, sure, but it's been keeping an eye on my accounts for years, flags breaches and Malwarebytes support actually helped me deal with a dark‑web leak. I check it every morning with my coffee and when the kids use their tablets, and honestly it calms me down.
