    Not impressed at all w this. Used it on my Android. Features mediocre. Screwed up my fingerprint recognition disabled swipe on lock screen. Better off dowloading one of the free apps than using this. Dissapointed w webroot

    Not for long did this product complete my security needs, and it was p[urchased in error. It had a download and password issue which prompted my early termination of use.

    The one issue I have is that the product was used on only two devices and has alerted us that it has no more. This has brought the rating to poor

    This is proprietary to Best Buy and Geek Squad. Not worth the purchase, and after the first year they bump up the cost, comparable to McAfee.

    Well, I tore off the paper that revealed the code I needed, and it totally trashed all the code numbers below it so I couldn't use it. I'll be calling the store for a new code

      I'm sure the store will get you set up. Can I ask why you're giving Webroot 1 star for an issue with the box? Once you have everything set up, I can assure that you'll love the effectiveness of our software!
