Ratings and reviews

I've been using bitdefender on my computers for years. Saved me countless times. this version is completely different in setup. the prompts to CHANGE Android permissions, save me hours of reading articles on what I'm actually giving permissions for. That sounds bad. I KNOW! It should tell you WHICH switches to turn on. Instead of leaving you to GUESS whether to turn on every damn switch in the category listed each time. it makes me want to reset the phone! Needs webpage setup for clarity.

App keeps telling me to activate anti-theft, but won't let me activate it. It tells me to set a pin, but nothing happens when I try to set a pin. It shows app lock is off, and will not let me turn it. Only thing that seems to work is running a scan, and no virus is found. Aside from the virus scanner, the app is junk after the last update.

After every update, Bitdefender Mobile on my S22 Ultra breaks. Despite setting the battery to unrestricted and enabling all accessibility permissions, I can't enable anything. App permissions disappear, asking for a new pin. It always says "Risk," and scanning isn't possible. Tried clearing cache and reinstalling, but no luck. Frustrating for years. Bitdefender on PC is great, but Android version is a mess. Device has latest Google patch and firmware. Please help.
