## Review summary

Users praise F-Secure for strong protection and reliability across devices, but report crashes, intrusive upgrade prompts, and compatibility issues on some tablets. False positives and cancellation/support friction further frustrate users. Overall, protection is valued, but stability and UX/purchasing friction hinder satisfaction.

### Pros

- Strong protection and threat removal; users report threats being detected and removed and safe browsing working.
- Long-standing trust and reliability across devices; many users have used it for years and feel safe.
- Quiet background operation with minimal interruptions; fewer pop-ups compared to competitors.
- Broad device compatibility and consistent protection across phones and tablets.

### Cons

- Frequent crashes/force closes, especially on tablets and newer Android versions.
- Intrusive upgrade prompts and confusing premium sign-up overlay; perceived pressure to pay.
- Tablet-specific compatibility bugs on certain devices (e.g., Samsung tablets, Android 16).
- False positives that block legitimate content or services (e.g., legitimate sites or app links).
- Cancellation and support friction; difficulty canceling and slow or unhelpful responses.
