Specifically referring to the app. The provided protection is a different subject. This app never works. Have to use the website. Every time I open the app, it glitches and flashes endlessly after I log in. It's completely unusable.

Functionality is hit or miss. I keep getting prompted to download Aura and the customer service people seem clueless.

Update: clearing all data or simply uninstalling and reinstalling appears to fix the issue. Changing to 3 stars for now. App keeps making the screen flash every second or two making it impossible to actually use. Appears to be an issues for a couple months now based on other reviews. This issue should have been addressed already.
