Best for cheap antivirus for Windows and Android

Quick Heal sells separate yearly licences for Windows, Mac and Android, starting at $10 a year for Android and $30 for Total Security. Each is a separate product, the prices sit beside a crossed-out higher figure with no end date, and the dark web monitoring is described with Indian ID documents.

Who Quick Heal Total Security is for

  • Fits if you want a low yearly price for one Windows PC or Android phone
  • Works for a family on 3 or 5 mixed Windows, Mac and Android devices

Who Quick Heal Total Security is not for

  • Skip it if you use an iPhone, as no iPhone product is listed
  • Watch out: every price sits next to a higher crossed-out one with no end date, so renewal prices are unknown
  • Not for you if you are outside India and want identity monitoring, as dark web monitoring is described with Aadhaar and PAN
  • Tight if you want one licence for everything: Windows, Mac and Android are sold as different products

Keep Quick Heal Total Security, or make your own?

Keep it

To replace Quick Heal Total Security you would be making an engine that recognises new malware as it appears. That is not a weekend's work, with an AI app builder or without one.

It is one of the better ones too: its GPA of 2.8 is higher than 19 of the 25 other antivirus apps we grade. It costs $10 a year.

What you could not

  • An engine that recognises new malware as it appears.
  • Apps for macOS, Windows and Android that stay in step with each other.
  • AI features, unless you pay a model provider for each request yourself.
  • The depth: we grade its features B, which means it covers the whole job.

What this rests on. Quick Heal Total Security’s listing: what it does, where it runs, what it plugs into and what it costs. It is a judgement about the kind of software this is. We have not built a replacement for it, and making your own means looking after it too. How we decide, and every tool’s verdict.

What is Quick Heal Total Security?

Quick Heal Total Security is the top home tier of Quick Heal's antivirus range, adding parental control, safe banking, data backup, dark web monitoring and an in-app assistant to malware protection. Quick Heal also sells cheaper Windows tiers, a Mac edition, a mobile app and a multi-device pack, each on its own page, with business products sold under the Seqrite name.

Worth knowing

  • Prices are shown against a higher crossed-out figure with no end date, so renewal prices are not stated on the pages read.
  • Dark web monitoring is described with Indian identity documents such as Aadhaar and PAN, which suggests it is built mainly for buyers in India.
  • Each tier is a separate one-year licence; Windows, Mac and Android editions are sold as different products.
  • The pages read describe the Total Security tier at one user for one year; a 5-device Multi-Device licence costs $20 more than 3 devices.
