User Reviews

Users praise Verizon Protect for its VPN and spam protection and easy interface, but updates have introduced significant VPN reliability issues and app bugs. Spam blocking is not consistently effective, and some users report interference with other apps like email. Overall, sentiment is mixed: strong positives when the VPN works, with notable reliability and usability concerns dragging down the experience.

Pros

Secure VPN feature is a valued security tool when it functions properly.
Spam/caller protection reduces nuisance calls and provides peace of mind.
Easy-to-use, intuitive interface.
Responsive customer support and helpful agents.

Cons

VPN reliability and location masking deteriorates after updates; it often won’t stay on or masks location inconsistently (sometimes only on wifi).
VPN interferes with other apps and services (e.g., email downloads or cellular data) when enabled.
Frequent glitches and bugs hinder usability (refresh required, can't enter date of birth, etc.).
Spam blocking is not consistently effective; users still report many scam calls.

I don’t know if this “protects” you per se. It makes the phone extremely laggy and just doesn’t load things like comments under an article. So if protection means you phone is as slow as a 1990’s flip phone and you can’t actually do about 75% of what you try to do, then I guess you could say it works. I just turned it off and am now using a different VPN that does work. Even though I have it turned off, it still nags me constantly that it’s disabled. I guess I have to uninstall.

Call filter moved here from the standalone app. I can no longer identify the type of line, so I can’t tell if it’s VoIP. Most spam is usually from VoIP callers. I also cannot see the owner/business of the line now. How is that helpful to your customers? I get an insane amount of spam calls and this is absolutely not helpful. I need to be able to see which are legitimate as people frequently refuse to leave a voicemail. I need to know if I have to follow up with medical or emergency calls.
