Latest reviews
- (2024-03-16) Nurullah (Avertthan): Zorla arama motorunu Norton safe search ayarlıyorsunuz. Diğer Chromium tarayıcılar da zorla yapmıyorsunuz da Google Chrome da mı yapıyorsunuz? Benim hangi arama motorunu kullanmayı zorlamayın!
- (2023-08-05) Connor Wallace: Awful. Has too many ads and pop ups.
- (2023-08-04) Steven Apel: Norton is staying true to their business model of force-feeding their users features they don't want. The forced home page and search engine are an insult to their user base. After a bit of research and testing, I found that Bitdefender - Traffic Light does what this Norton extension used to, without the extra garbage. You may have to use an alternate default search engine than Google for Traffic light to work, however anything is better than Norton's proprietary sEaRcH eNgInE.
- (2023-07-03) Sam: Forced changes new tabs, can't change it back otherwise. Idiotic, I need a plugin, not a nanny. Go away.
- (2023-06-22) Gareth Preston (Strober): Norton sucks far to many pop ups, it's a virus in it's own right
- (2023-02-06) Nancy Yeager: I don't like it as my Chrome browser now opens links in new tabs. Plus it's too slow.
- (2023-01-09) Sierra Sparling: I'm very happy with my other Norton products, but giving Safe Search a 1-star review because my Chrome browser now opens links in new tabs. I can't find an option to change it back to my previous setting of opening links in the same tab. It may sound like a small problem but it has quickly become very annoying to have to close out of every tab every time I click on a link. If this setting can be changed, I would try this extension again.
- (2022-12-01) Sourabh Garg: Stupid. Too many false positives.
- (2022-12-01) Michael Vargas: sirve mucho para paginas que no sabes si son seguras
- (2022-08-23) George Suchett-Kaye: Useless. Says I want to visit a dangerous website as soon as I type in a name in Google. Doesn't matter what name I type in.
- (2022-08-08) Hoang Phan: This is stupid extendsion, block every where.
- (2022-05-20) Quentin Chwee: It always blocks every website i go , don't download it , it sucks
- (2022-04-13) F L: I cannot get anything to work with Norton lately...no home page, no safe search. Very disappointing after years of using Norton with no issues. Now it is all problems.
- (2021-10-12) Hemant Vohra: Hmmm..its a additional for security though its not required because google chrome is safe enough to protect u from the scammers and hackers...but its a additional for some people who wants to be extra secured,,,my experience is its slows down my searchs and hides most of pages from regular chrome search that were completely safe and chrome showed it before this extension...so its not made for users like me..
- (2021-07-26) CoffeePuma: Franchement un outils vraiment parfait! Je l'utilise sur mon navigateur Opéra GX grâce à une compatibilité native avec les extensions Google Chrome! Et combien de fois il m'a protégé des sites web dangereux! Mais je dois également signaler un bug. Après quelques jours à utiliser l'extension il se met à un moment ou un autre totalement inactif lorsque je clique sur le "?" la page qui s'ouvre est toutes blanches, rien ne s'affiche. Et pire à chaque fois que j'essaye de réinstaller l'extension pour corriger le problème il se remet à être inactif. Je suis sous Windows 10 et mon navigateur est Opéra GX avec la compatibilité des extensions Google Chrome.
- (2021-07-19) Sidney Freedman: You never realize How Good it is, till you change it. I have used Norton forever, had it free from ISP, but they stopped that. Well, best thing i did was add the Norton Safe Search and i have used this for as long as i can remember. It has been great in protecting and when they update, they don't reset my settings, like another Brand. I'm back to what works best, thanks Norton
- (2021-05-07) oh yes i'm talking about the safe search WHAT IS THIS SEARCH PLACE??? google is a better place for me i can barely go anywhere with this i use my computer for online classes and i literally can't even get to google classroom "oh just uninstall it if its so bad!" that's my problem I CANT
- (2021-04-15) Angel Rivera: I hate Norton I was using it coz it was part of comcast, protection. but comcast cancel it, now i can't get rid of it no matter what I do. is corrupted but it blocks my use of chrome!
- (2021-01-19) germário Martins: 🧥x🥼Falta opção, de "modo escuro"! ✂Falta remover l🤬inks!👹 Em vez de sinalizar!!⚰ Falta melhorar a🔒 proteção com carregamento mais rápido das paginas. ☜(ﾟヮﾟ☜)
- (2021-01-18) Greg Woo: Why is Yahoo the default search engine? I tried to change it back but it won't let me. I don't think that it was the case before. Let me use the search engine that I want.
- (2021-01-15) Sharol: サイトの右に表記されるアイコンが、時々出る時と出ないときがあるのが難点
- (2020-12-09) Joseph Allavena: love it
- (2020-11-21) gergeis yosef: I like this but i want to know how to change the search engine back????
- (2020-10-26) germário Martins: Rápido ❌falta modo escuro. ❌erro: as vezes pagina em branco
- (2020-10-18) NICOLAS ENRIQUE RUIZ OJEDA: Seguridad y confiabilidad
- (2020-10-18) Elvis Pan: Good job Norton! Now I can browse safely without worrying about cybercriminals. You earned a 5 Star from me! Thanks! <3
- (2020-10-03) Thiago Aujoara: É uma boa extensão pois nos deixa protegidos reduzindo riscos. Porém o design da Home Page fica horrível com esse fundo todo brando e esses links de sites. 1 - Deveria ter a opção de tema escuro; 2 - Não deveria remover o papel de parede do navegador que o usuário usa; 3 - Os links para os sites que estão logo abaixo da barra de pesquisa poderiam ser editáveis/removidos. 4 - O modo de isolamento que adiciona proteção extra deveria ser permitido adicionar sites manualmente.
- (2020-10-01) Enrique Fernando Ayala: Protecciòn segura
- (2020-09-23) Theo Lavet: Te weinig ervaring
- (2020-09-15) Darci Correia dos Santos: Seguro
- (2020-09-14) stewart caldwell: I've had it for years. It's corrected some serious problems.
- (2020-09-13) Stella Lenh: it safe used
- (2020-09-01) Roberto García: Me parece un buen programa para protegerte de virus.
- (2020-09-01) Harold Spraker: Just getting started with it.
- (2020-08-29) BD Force 71 Free Fire: very good
- (2020-08-23) Spooky Boy0: great
- (2020-08-16) MADELEINE RABIDEAU: There were more complaints than praise. So I might just wait awhile to decide. At least if I don't like it I can deactivate it. ]
- (2020-08-06) Leslie Hilliard: While I feel safer having Norton 360 with LifeLock, Safe Search slows everything down and makes working difficult especially during the COVID-19 pandemic.
- (2020-08-05) Joseph Helleberg: Great so far.
- (2020-07-21) ethel dias: I have had it with all the the reloads and getting half of what I've paid for. Nothing works as it once did.
- (2020-07-08) F Gordon Kennedy: Our love affair is coming to an end. Norton Symantec used to be the best - hands down no question five star - now to pay the subscription (PLEASE TAKE MY MONEY) I have to find (BY ACCIDENT) what's covered - this means I'm subscribed, why is what I pay for not active and the (THE DANCE) to activate it). I have not tiem and very little patience to play 'catch with your new corporate (YOU'VE DEGRADED YOUR SERVICE, IN FAVOR OF THE NEW GUYS WHO'VE COME ON THE SCENE AND WHOSE MANTRA IS - LET'S MAKE SOME MONEY) arrangements. FGK
- (2020-07-02) Armando Jose Lopez: I LOVE IT. THANK YOU.
- (2020-04-08) Arty Anims: It Ruins My Google Search by making it YAHOO
- (2020-03-19) CHARLES ZIMMER: This program is great. A very good program
- (2020-03-11) Barbara Davis: I used to LOVE this extension but now that it forces me to use Yahoo! search I don't want it. There was a reason I never used Yahoo! search and now I'm gonna dump this for the same reason.
- (2020-03-06) Rolane Talleos: It works and i love the added coverage it gives me
- (2020-02-27) Louise Machinski: Did not to a thing !
- (2020-01-26) m j: I do not like being forced to use yahoo. Plain and simple. It's nothing against yahoo. It's more of the fact that everything else in my life uses google. So why would I want a different home page? A different search engine? A different experience? I couldn't tell you. Every other web security program that i have used (webroot and kaspersky) has allowed me to safe search features while using the google ecosystem. I honestly wouldn't buy norton because of this, but I already have. I guess im just a little less protected than i should be for the price.
- (2020-01-04) Herman Koerner: Loved it
- (2019-11-30) Rod Barnes: It seems locked to Yahoo search... dont want that and cant change it - bad.
