Hi @mekelek
I think it is easy to reach 10 devices for a family:
Myself: Work PC + Home PC +Smartphone + Tablet = 4
My wife : idem = 4
Toatal = 8 devices and our three daughters are already married.....;)
perfect bundle for you then, and their android AV is one of the best, only one i could find that protects more Browsers than Chrome.

Hi @mekelek
29€95/1 year/5 devices is also a good price for those who have less devices but with premium you get also 25 Go of backup, and if you renew your subscription you get every year 25 Go more ! I have 75 Go:)

So you use it on Android? I found it to be bloated and got rid of it.

yes i do, bloated? it has all the necessary features you need, including web protection.
also it's in the 3 AVs that scored 100% on protection in the latest mobile AV test

@Trooper Like @mekelek said, Norton solution for android is on top. In my opinion, for PC, there are other alternatives as good as Norton or better, but, in android, I think Norton has the best solution on market: good protection, multiple browsers protection, play store advisor... etc. I use it in 2 Androids :)

Yeah I felt it has unnecessary stuff in it. It also uses way too much RAM. Also annoying was there popups to get you to install more Norton apps.

I don't use AV on my Android phone. I feel it is not necessary.

That's cool man I don't run AV on my Pixel XL. It is updated monthly with security updates and I do not install dodgy apk's etc.

For the desktop I do use Norton but I always go back and forth between that, ESET and KIS.
