HI how can i delete this app from my android smart phone??.. i cannot even sign in to the user account, as i have forgotten my password.. in fact i just want rid of the app. any ideas?? thanks..
It could be settings, security, device administrators, then untick the macafee option. then back into app manager, uninstall. That way it will get rid of it for you.....

When i go into settings, then scroll down to security, the options i get then is
set up sim card lock, password typing visible, phone administrators, unknown sources, trusted credentials, install from storage and clear credentials.
Guys i cannot sign in to McAfee family protection app, i have forgotten my password. if i could sign in, i may have a good chance of deleting the McAfee FAMILY PROTECTION APP. thanks
A few moments on Google suggests that it comes with "uninstall protection" to stop your kid from uninstalling it if you have site restrictions and other permissions set.
Unfortunately if you cannot remember the password it sounds like you would have to factory reset the device which means backing up all your data, contacts, etc as you'll lose them all and have to put them back on afterwards.
Back up all your phone content
Factory reset
Restore your content back onto the device
If you look at the reviews on Google Play there's a lot of people angry that they can't uninstall it and generally unhappy with it.
