    I find it disappointing that it appears that I cannot install to the computer I purchased and this was free. Free does not make it better. If offered with the computer, one should be able to install it.

    Needed an virus scanning software and this freebie does the job. Make sure to avail of it, because 6 months of free protection is pretty cool!

    This subscription was a free add-on, but I'd highly recommend to buy better Anti-Virus and/or Internet Security software. I won't name any names, but do some searching and you will find the better products out there.

    Came free with a computer component I purchased. I would recommend to stay far away from this Anti-Virus. Windows Defender probably does a better job and is less intrusive.

    This came with the Samsung Tab S6, but I already own a multi device license for Norton Mobile Security. I've used Norton for about 40+ years and never had a virus. So I didn't use this software.

    invasive. And when I didn't renew it, I was suddenly getting junk texts on my phone that I never got before. Also, it may not be the best idea to trust Microsoft with more than absolutely necessary

    If I could give this ZERO stars I would, after going through the installation process. I decided to purchase McFee Security which immediately told me to remove this software.

    I have been unable to download this security feature because it says the app is not available in this region. I live in NJ so I don’t know why bestbuy would offer this with my iPad Air purchase.

      We're sorry to hear that you've had trouble installing Trend Micro mobile security in your iPad, Buffdaddyant. It sounds like there is an issue with region-detection on your device. We recommend contacting Geek Squad customer support to double-check the settings on your device. trend-micro

    This product didn't follow through with what they said they were going to do. I had this software run its antivirus and another software run their antivirus. The other software found the virus but this one didn't find it.

      It's not usually recommended to install 2 security programs at the same time; they can conflict with one another and prevent the software from doing what it's designed to do, Telescope. trend-micro
