For Android users, AVG AntiVirus is similarly powerful. As well as the core antivirus and browsing protection, a stack of antitheft features allow you to remotely locate, lock or wipe your device, use the camera to take a shot of the thief, or have the device automatically lock if the SIM is replaced.
For Mac users, AVG AntiVirus and Cleaner for Mac are capable desktop tools with real-time antivirus protection, hard drive cleanup tools, a duplicate file finder and more.
You're not restricted to using just one of these, or one per device: AVG's Ultimate licence covers ALL your PC, Mac and Android hardware, no matter how many of each you've got.
