### 5/5 — Great Product

*2026-08-05, version 26.23.0*

Great Product

### 1/5 — New format

*2026-08-04, version 26.23.0*

Nothing monitors/takes

### 1/5 — Horrid

*2026-07-25, version 26.23.0*

Horrid

### 5/5 — Excellent service

*2026-07-13, version 26.23.0*

I have tried multiple companies and I have to say this one is the BEST!

### 5/5 — What I think

*2026-03-21, version 4.1.2*

So far so good

### 5/5 — Ok so far

*2026-02-01, version 4.1.2*

Waiting to see if it’s actually doing what it says it does also says something about hidden criminal records I want to see if it’s a true life story

### 3/5 — Difficult to Get Help

*2026-01-22, version 4.1.2*

Where in the app do you go to get help? It should be easy to find a number…

### 1/5 — Paid off credit csrds. Score went down 3 points. So glad I took the time and effort to do that

*2026-01-03, version 4.1.2*

Really paid off to pay off all my cards. Pun clearly intended.

### 1/5 — Can’t Get Help When You Need It

*2025-12-25, version 4.1.2*

The day where I needed help finally came and I can’t get a hold of anyone. Why am I paying $30 a month?

### 1/5 — One star for your attention:

*2025-10-26*

I just got done trying aura’s 14 day free trial and I was impressed the same day that I downloaded that app. I also downloaded yours. And paying the money is worth it pretty much 90% of any what are you looking at this? We’ll see the price at $300. And if they already downloaded giraffe, they’ll just simply delete it and not give it any further further thought I can’t commit $300 to a service which I’m sure is every bit as good as aura is I wanted to compare the little differences between the two and I’m sure it would be a really close race, but I don’t normally write reviews like this. I would normally just email you. But I titled it one star for attention so hopefully someone serious about cyber security and reads this and doesn’t just pass you by I’m not gonna tell you how long you should you shouldn’t have your free trial, but I am gonna tell you by not having. A free trial of any sort and then if you listen to me and implement one, I’m gonna guess that the number of subscribers your service grows by a minimum of 25% over a three month period I mean what have you got to lose because come on only people who are really concerned about cyber security and not load into a false sense of said security and they’re looking into these services. They’re looking to drop the money either that day or within the next couple weeks. Anyways, just a penny for your thoughts.
