Some what confusing.

Am I signed in or not. Some times, while navigating this site I feel compelled to repeatedly sign in. The sign in panel is always present.

A but user unfriendly, but a great app nonetheless!

Malwarebytes offers a great service, and I would highly recommend it! I mainly use it for the spam-blocking features, and it’s honestly a lifesaver.

The only gripe I have with it is that it asks for a subscription at the start with no way of denying it, making setup a little bit harder. Here’s what you have to do to get access to the app without a subscription:

1. Click on any of the free trials and go through with the subscription (trust the process).
2. Navigate to Settings > (Your Account) > Subscriptions
3. Turn off the subscription.

Instead of doing all of that, a different process could be used:

1. Choose a free trial (no charge if you forget the deadline)
2. Use the app
3. No subscription, no problem

Overall, though, this is a great application, and I would highly recommend it, if not for the app’s setup.

MWB for IOD

I use MWB for all my devices. Both Windows and IOS for years now and feel safer with it

Trusting Malwarebytes for security

So much out there on the web who/which do not have my best interests on their agenda that I appreciate a support system that does help me remain safe and functioning.

AWESOME-Totally recommend!

Security

All

Need confirmation

The VPN is sometimes off but provides no notification even though configured, nor notice how long it’s been off. Also, sometimes, I’m not sure it is actually working as the protection score suddenly changes to 100% after you click on the icon.

5 star rating

I have ysed this programme now for many many years. They have saved me so many headaches. They stand beside and behind their products. I would not hesitate to recommend them to anyone

I’m about to delete my subscription.

The activation for web and call security is very nebulous. I also have VPN app and there is too much confusion with these various elements. Help is not very direct either. Frustrating.

Phone calls still coming in you’re telling me they’re on my contact list

I’m getting phone calls from somebody who’s trying to scam my phone in because it’s an 818 area you guys are telling me they’re on my contact list and they’re not so what good is Malwarebytes????

Stop

I’m not singing up for one more thing …

Not working for me

I have taken the time to report every spam message and call with messages for months now. When do you start getting them stopped?

Very secure App

Life changing and saving capabilities. Thank you very much for you build of this amazing project

Owner

I hope it’s the best protection out there in 2026-2027. 👍

Magnificent

It’s everything that is advertised on the app. I have not had a spam call in months and it so great in screening my calls even the even my friends that don’t FaceTime me. Every one should have this app.

Paid but Can’t activate

I want my money Back!!!

Commercial

Doesn’t show it’s all black every time it comes on like get rid of the commercial

fake

it took me to a redirect sites no sign in info

Awesome App

Short and concise. Great app and easy to set up! VPN setup was super fast. It will be on by default. If I can install and setup so can you.

I’m not happy here! I’m trying to bust my protection to better than 58 but I can’t ! I tried 😡

Why can’t I bust my protection to my I phone?!
