don’t uninstall it lightly. If you need space, clean other files first. Kind of relieved it worked when I put it back. Thankful it wasn’t worse.
Finally switched off
The moment I felt actually satisfied was when the cancellation email hit my inbox — weirdly liberating. I first saw this in the App Store and even suggested it to a couple coworkers (Mark in IT gave it a quick go), so I tried to be patient. But the iOS app was slow to launch, the VPN kept dropping and reconnecting, and the “scan” felt like a checkbox rather than anything useful. Support kept giving optimistic wait times but you just sit in a queue, or get dropped, which got old fast. After moving the company account over to something that actually stays connected I was quietly relieved. Not dramatic joy, just done and glad to be elsewhere.
Not what I expected — in a good way
the UI is simple, not flashy, and it just sort of gets on with the job. I do notice my laptop humming a touch more, but nothing annoying, and overall it feels reliable. There were a couple tiny hiccups the first week, like a reset I didn't expect, but customer chat sorted it out fast. I'm pleasantly surprised and actually relieved — didn't think I'd stick with it, but I have. Happy I took the tip, thanks to my friend, and yeah, will keep using it.
Pushy download, rubbish follow-up
PayPal was helpful once I uploaded the chat screenshot and they refunded me. So yeah, customer service from Avast felt really sloppy and the digital "delivery" of the license/emails was confusing and persistent. If you value a clear cancellation and polite follow-through, this was a fail. My advice — screenshot every chat and keep an eye on your bank; if you need a refund, be ready to escalate. I’ll avoid them in future and won’t recommend them to friends based on this mess.
