Avira Prime

What Avira Prime is

Avira Prime combines cybersecurity, online privacy, and device-performance tools in a paid subscription for Windows, macOS, Android, and iOS. Plans cover five or 25 devices: Prime 5 devices costs $109.99 a year, and Prime 25 devices costs $134.99 a year. Both include antivirus and ransomware protection, an unlimited-data VPN, password management, software updates, and device optimization. Smart Scan checks for malware, network threats, outdated programs, weak passwords, data breaches, junk files, tracking cookies, and browser trash. Antivirus protection uses cloud-based real-time detection and heuristic methods designed to identify ransomware, including previously unknown mutations. Windows features include automatic software updates, web and email protection, and a firewall that complements the built-in Windows firewall. The VPN’s Windows kill switch cuts internet access if the VPN connection drops. Prime also includes more than 30 tuning features for Windows and optimization features for macOS. A 30-day premium trial is available without a credit card, and subscribers receive VIP support from security experts. Subscriptions renew automatically unless cancelled; renewal prices may be higher than initial prices and can change.
