### 5/5 — FAITH

*2026-08-07, version 1.15.2*

Through Anything In Your Father God Of The Heavens

### 5/5 — Genial

*2026-07-28, version 1.15.2*

Bueno

### 5/5 — AWSOME

*2026-07-19, version 1.15.2*

This software is the G.O.A.T for me!

### 2/5 — Do not let it near your contacts!

*2026-07-10, version 1.15.2*

The synchronization between Microsoft Outlook and Apple iOS is notoriously disjointed. As such, I've had numerous duplicate contacts added to my phone over the years. I use Norton on my Windows PC (and have for years) so I decided to use it on my iPhone. 
Huge mistake! 
After it was done, some of my most common contacts were gone completely and others were missing street addresses or primary phone numbers. None of the supposed clean up steps followed any rhyme or reason that I would have directed, and there were no questions asked to guide the process. In short, what might work well for removing duplicate images does not with Norton Phone Cleanup.

### 1/5 — Freezes

*2026-07-08, version 1.15.2*

iPhone 15 Pro Max with latest iOS.  App loads and freezes. After a few minutes it will respond to the tap then freezes again.  Not useable. 

In response to developers comment.  I am on iOS 26.5.

### 1/5 — Hate Norton 360

*2026-06-24, version 1.15.2*

I purchased what I thought was a complete package only to find out every time I click on something recommended to fix it cost more and another add on. You would think ultimate includes all utilities but no notion keeps asking for more costly add ons. Also does not work on iPad

### 1/5 — Deceptive Business Practices

*2026-06-24, version 1.15.2*

Buyer Beware!! Trial subscription period of the service is a scam! They will charge you immediately, and you will not be allowed to cancel the subscription until one year after activation. I tried to cancel well within the trial time was over. They wouldn’t give me a refund, and fought me every step of the way to prevent me from escalating with Apple. I will NEVER use their products again!

### 1/5 — ゴミアプリ

*2026-06-18*

ユーティリティズアルティメットというPCのソフトの詐欺まがいのお試し版のライセンスの自動更新が勝手に有効になっていて1年間ライセンス延長になってしまったのが原因で折角なら使ってみた。
（多分同じ人いると思う）
削除できる項目が写真と連絡先くらいでわざわざこれ使う意味はない。

**Developer response:** iPhone版のNorton Cleanerは、写真、動画、連絡先の整理に特化したアプリです。iOSの仕組み上、ほかのアプリのキャッシュや不要ファイルをまとめて削除することはできません。別のNorton製品の請求や自動更新について確認が必要でしたら、support.norton.com からご案内できます。 *Norton

### 3/5 — Contact cleaning

*2026-06-14, version 1.15.2*

My daughter and my contact were merged and I’m unable to separate the two by name and phone and pictures. Please resolve this issue ASAP

### 5/5 — Good App

*2026-06-07, version 1.15.2*

I like it.

We've bumped your app with new tools to give you more space and more privacy—so you can keep what matters and share without leaving fingerprints everywhere:

• Photo & Video Optimizer
  Some memories deserve the full gigabyte. Others don't. Compress the everyday shots and win back valuable space.
• Clean Share
  We share photos everywhere—friends, socials, AI tools, even institutions. But why reveal where and when each was taken? Clean Share strips out hidden metadata (EXIF) so you can share safely, without leaving a trail. Use it any day, every day.
