It's always worked well even with ads. Well worth the download and the subscription for my phone and tablet. Avast cleanup on my laptop...not so much anymore. Just got the new update for the program and it is horrible. Effectively rendering the program useless. Severely frustrated with the dash board/interface. A lot of the features I found very useful are now GONE. As far as the current PC version....it sucks beyond belief to the point that I'm looking for a new program to install.

Unbelievable, when I first downloaded this app I thought it would effectively clean my phone, it was successful, but after a while it keeps on saying, "Continue with ads", which began to become annoying because when I press the button it wouldn't go to the app, it would just freeze, so I had to make the phone in optimal condition, and it's still the same. Small commercials keep on popping up after cleaning, and sometimes ads. The most annoying part is the app forcing me to buy the premium part.

Hi, developing apps costs money, so in order to support our operation, we display ads within our FREE version and promote our Pro version, which doesn’t include ads or promotional campaigns. However, even the free version does a great job cleaning your device, feel free to use it, upgrade is not compulsory, just a suggestion ;)

I downloaded this bc I just paid for the yearly subscription for the Avast Mobile Security app, and it leads you to download this for the cleaning part, and at first I thought it was good, but the last 4 times I cleaned my phone, it took 27 mins, just for me to realize it hasn't even cleaned it. The first time it took a couple mins. And I have uninstalled several apps on my phone so that's way more space now than the first time it cleaned it. It's ridiculous.

Hi, sorry to hear that. The scanning itself is quite fast, but it can be slowed down by folders with a huge number (thousands) of files. We would like to help you, could you please contact us on
[email protected] or our direct support (Menu - Help & feedback) and tell them further details? Thanks. Hector*Avast
