Why Avast fits Mac

Avast runs as a native macOS app and performs well on Apple Silicon (M1/M2/M3). Phishing filter and banking protection work the same as on Windows.

Avast Premium Security is one of the most recognisable antivirus brands and offers solid protection for up to 10 devices. The suite includes web protection, VPN, and anti-tracking features. Platform coverage is broad – from Windows and Mac to mobile devices. Avast has faced past criticism over data privacy practices, which have since been addressed. Pricing is fair but not always the cheapest.
