They got me for 8 bucks monthly. Never had something like this happen to me before. If u have an iPhone this app is useless. ### 1/5 — Bought then Immediately cancelled *2025-10-03, version 3.3.0* No Software downloaded to IPad. I purchased Certo about 1 1/2 hours ago. I downloaded the software. The only app I got was a license. I did not receive any other files. I confirmed that I received no files in the download. I cancelled the subscription immediately thereafter. ### 1/5 — Refund *2025-09-18, version 3.3.0* Paid for the software and I keep getting asked to py another subscription. Can't download this software and can't access my account.please refund the yearly cost I paid for today and I keep getting an error while trying to email and to request a cancellation. Not at all inpress d that no phone number to call to cancel and cnt get help from this software support. ### 1/5 — Certo mobile *2025-08-05, version 3.3.0* No real way to cancel membership , useless , ### 1/5 — Terrible app *2025-08-05, version 3.3.0* The customer service chat is a bot that refuses to connect you to a human. I kept entering every email I have to see if it would work, but it kept failing. I even put it that I wasn’t a customer, it still failed to send a message. ### 1/5 — Fails to start *2025-06-03, version 3.2.1* When I press the app to start it just blinks and shuts down ### 1/5 — My payment not recognised *2025-05-16, version 3.2.1* I paid $71.50 for the full version, but I still only have the free version. Why you take my money and not give me what I paid for? I’d like to scan my phone for spyware. ### 1/5 — Updates *2024-07-30, version 3.2.1* I’m sure the app works well, but every app wether a game or security app needs updates. Certo hasn’t had an update in 8 months ### 1/5 — b *2023-12-15, version 3.2.1* Could not find app to toggle on or off, antispy leads you away from app store on to their website, I deleted it immediately. DODGY ### 1/5 — Awful costumer service *2023-06-09* I bought both this and the app for windows since i updated i wasnt able to use it again and costumer service never replied back awesome way to spend money ## Most praised reviews (10 highest-rated) ### 5/5 — Certified ui/ux design operator 500 level.

And I have not had a problem for years now. And they offer more. I’m truly grateful for the app. and the detective For the protection I have now. Thank you Nick I am sorry,I made a little mistake. I did not finish the reason for that is emotions and feelings that I have and it’s very frightful for people to hear this, malicious malware and spyware can be installed in seconds by a little mistake. by answering the wrong phone call email text message etc. A couple years ago scamming was that millions of dollars it’s in the trillions of dollars that quickly. That’s what malicious small where and spyware is all about stealing and they don’t care who they target anyone and everyone these are the facts. And it’s hard to catch these people without protection for this what I said in the beginning, you’ll find yourself having problems when it happens to you who to trust you become paranoid and more it can affect you greatly not just financially, mentally and emotionally and more. Unfortunately, this stuff is sold legally and illegally. And it hurts me to my core because some people can’t afford it and criminals Don’t care who they target. My apologies to all, I had to put the amendment here. It’s not easy and it’s not easy finding out after the fact it’s all about preventing it before hand. My thanks to the app. The creator and all the people that put into the app. ### 5/5 — Nick *2026-07-11, version 3.3.0* I had a problem even my cell phone carrier that I gave full access to my phone to protect failed they were no help when hacked, a very good detective who does phone forensics advised me to what to do immediately, after clearing the phone download the app do the 10 privacy in the 10 security questions.

Thank you Nick ### 5/5 — Excellent *2026-07-03, version 3.3.0* Seems to be working fine I’ve been using Certo mobile security for a few years now off and on and it’s perfect it’s lite and doesn’t use a lot of space i would love to get the deep scan but it’s a little expensive but this version scans all the right places so I’m happy.Great job developers ### 5/5 — I’m breathing easier *2026-06-01, version 3.3.0* Thank you Certo! As a victim of identity theft, SIM swapping and cross-platform account take over after having downloaded spyware and root kit virus two years ago with recognizable behavior patterns cropping up again already, not being able to scan my iPhone for malware or spyware, you guys have me breathing a little easier. Although I don’t have a very full picture of the flow in which this whole chaotic mess began from start to finish, I am slowly learning in having to painfully write out in detail each step where breaches have occurred in order to prove that I have always followed MFA protocols with all of my accounts so that some of the accountability can actually be linked to the jack*** cyber thief responsible. I’ve discovered that it’s extremely difficult to learn these phishing, spoofing, smishing steps backwards from their successfully achieving their ultimate goal, to the beginning point of entry. My latest credit report now shows that my ssn and new mobile # have already made it to the dark web. My days are still a nightmare in trying to remain “secure” but also in my exhaustive efforts to prove my identity and clear my name with the 3 bureau’s and the ftc. But I do take comfort in knowing that I do not have any spyware on my devices. A little adware showed up on my last scan but Certo was quick to find it. Thank you developers for providing a solid spyware remover software at such an affordable price. ### 5/5 — Certified *2026-04-09, version 3.3.0* Love it so far not a scam like most ### 5/5 — Support wellbeing *2026-04-07, version 3.3.0* This system has been looking out for me in best possible way ### 5/5 — Awesome *2026-03-04, version 3.3.0* Awesome app. Really works ### 5/5 — Drew *2026-02-14, version 3.3.0* Great app ### 5/5 — Good app *2026-02-09, version 3.3.0* I like it --- *Data collected daily from the US App Store and indexed by [AppsHunter](https://appshunter.io/).
