App version: 1.0.7

Always running in the background protecting my MacBook, does a great job.

I can’t begin to tell you how please I am with the progress that MacPaw has made with developing Moonlock! I feel fully confident that my Mac is protected with Moonlock. It also has the best UI of any Mac antivirus I have ever seen :-) The only thing I want to see, is Moonlock participating in independent lab test on sites such as AV-Test.org. Other than this, I highly recommend it.

Disapointing. I do the scans and never find anything wron. Yet I have Norton Ultimate and it is always finding and rempving bugs. Even Microsoft Defender finds Malware on my Mac. I cannot remember one single report from Moonlock that it had found Malware. I am sorry, but it does not appear to be up to the task.

An app that leaves residual services that want to run after uninstalled is malware in my opinion. These are a few examples from the console *after I uninstalled* the app. error 06:26:24.806689+1000 com.macpaw.moonlock.engine Failed to open service: 0xe00002d8: Caller lacks TCC authorization for Full Disk Access error 06:26:24.806622+1000 kernel System Policy: com.macpaw.moonlock.engine(545) deny(1) system-privilege 1016 error 06:26:25.810055+1000 com.macpaw.moonlock.engine Failed to open service: 0xe00002d8: Caller lacks TCC authorization for Full Disk Access error 06:26:26.422566+1000 kernel 1 duplicate report for System Policy: com.macpaw.moonlock.engine(545) deny(1) system-privilege 1016 error 06:26:26.814132+1000 kernel System Policy: com.macpaw.moonlock.engine(545) deny(1) system-privilege 1016

Awful, it took from me a whole day to uninstall. Why would I want an app that "inspects" for malware but can not be uninstalled by itself??? Terrible, DON'T INSTALL IT. WILL MAKE YOUR LAPTOP TERRIBLY SLOW AND WHEN YOU WANT TO REMOVE YOU WILL WANT TO TEAR YOURSELF

I like the app, it leaves me alone to get on with work. I check every now and again against other software and it is catching as much as some and more than others. I am not technical in any way so I could be being fooled by anyone, its nice to know that your back is covered.

Liked the concept but the Moonlock helper slowed my mac to a crawl and drained the battery - Something is very amiss with this at the moment

The app is a bit basic from my perspective, I can’t see any additonal value different from what Clean my Mac already offered
