A total of 5 licenses are available for the protection of the above mentioned devices. The installation is very easy. You log in via the Setup page of Norton and will then either be prompted to create an account or login with an existing account. I had to create a new account, even though I already on my PC use a Norton product (Norton 360 for my PC in 3 year subscription). After the account was created you have the 25-digit key the to see on the supplied Key Card under the scratch panel is register. Then you will have-as we used when installed on the phone it to Play Store (we all Android phones) diverted order to install the app. The app is also available in the free version for those who want to look and test first time and might want to buy later. But since I have a product key to my app extended automatically to the premium feature with anti-theft protection and Appberater.
Once the app is installed, the program is also already in operation. The six-part screen are next to the drop-down menu with the settings a comprehensive insight into the functions of the app and the program purchased.
The following 6 areas available

For all of us app consultant at Napster struck, pointing to a high concern. Since we are absolute streaming but fans there was add the App to the trusting no problem. Alternatively, we could uninstall the app even on the spot.

A stable network connection should, however, be ensured so that the can- web protection work reliably we can also confirm in practice.

That was the most difficult for us component of the package. When you first install on a Sony Experia Z 3 was probably what wrong due to lack of GPS function and it appeared partout no function for the theft protection in Norton account although the feature was enabled on the mobile phone. The theft protection allows the mobile users to lock their devices to locate, perform audio tracking and erase the data on the device. For this purpose, a Norton a four-digit PIN appears SMS once and briefly, we have committed ourselves to the white cardboard package of the shell around him not to forget. In addition, there are several security settings in the drop-down menu to his mobile phone secure again. Of this we have but not exercised.
So much for the functions. The app is stable and shows permanent presence in the status bar of your smartphone. Regular scanning can be set up and running again in our day. 5 devices are just sufficient for an average household, we would still want to supply PCs and tablets that we would already be close.
There were problems during the initial installation on the smartphone of my husband I could delete the license on the Norton site and she was immediately available again. After that I did a clean install performed and running with all the features now correct. Interestingly deleting licenses sure even if you short the phone switches and has no additional license more.
Otherwise, the site of Norton provides a good overview of the licenses used and installed devices. Should you nevertheless times need help is the registered customers a Live Chat 8-20 clock on weekdays are available, which is quickly and competently on the spot.
