2026-08-31	Ju*****	⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Really great app for keeping my phone safe, especially when installing unknown or sketchy apps. It gives me peace of mind knowing it can scan for malware and help catch potential threats. It’s simple, reliable, and I really appreciate that there aren’t annoying ads getting in the way. Definitely recommend Malwarebytes!

2026-08-31	Al*****	so, it's funny. I have a program to block trackers in my apps. and Malwarebytes keeps turning it off. I wonder if it has anything to do with the three different trackers it has going. and I paid for this lol edit: so I did as requested and contacted them and the guy just said I can't run two blockers at once. 1: you aren't blocking ANY trackers, so lol, and 2: you yourself are using trackers so LOL. I'd demand a refund but I know you won't give one. garbage.
