At the other end of the spectrum, Trend Micro and Norton require macOS 10.13 (High Sierra) or better. If you have an antique Mac that for some reason can't even run Yosemite, consider ProtectWorks or ClamXAV (for Mac), both of which support versions 10.6 (Snow Leopard) and later. Like Panda and AVG, Avast supports macOS versions back to 10.10 Yosemite.
Avast for apple products upgrade#
A lock icon on that last item lets you know that the ransomware feature requires an upgrade to Premium. Four large buttons across the bottom give access to Core Shields, Virus Chest, Wi-Fi Inspector, and Ransomware Shield. The product's spacious main window features a status indicator at the top of a purple background, with a big scan button just below. Since my last review, this product's appearance has changed so it's much closer to that of Avast Free Antivirus on Windows.

Avast for apple products install#
You can install and run the VPN, but when you try to connect to a server you get a choice of signing up for $3.89 per month or starting a seven-day trial. I did find a link to install the VPN on the Subscriptions page in Settings. I didn't bother with the password manager, since it seems that's not considered part of the product anymore. The only way I could install the important Online Security extension was to download it directly from the Chrome store. There's no Tools page in the current product, though, and I couldn't find any reference to the browser extensions. As of my last review, these were on the Tools page, along with Avast SecureLine VPN. Avast Security offers Macs protection against malware along with a network security scanner, all for a cost of exactly nothing.Īfter the speedy installation, I went looking for the password manager and Online Security browser extension. The situation may not be nearly as bad as for Window or Android, but prudence still dictates that you install antivirus protection on your Macs as well. It wasn't true, alas, and we're seeing more and more Mac-specific malware attacks. Apple promoted this dream, with ads claiming that PCs get malware, not Macs.
