  • Needs basic improvements

    This app seems to mostly do what it was intended to do but it needs fine tuning.

    For example, when running on an iPad or iPhone, it prevents the Apple Podcasts app from ever running any podcasts. The workaround is to turn off the vpn, start the desired podcast, and then restart the vpn. This is clunky and shouldn’t be a problem with the vpn in the first place.

  • Brought my IPhone on its knees

    Was delighted to install the App on my IOS devices since I’ve had Defender on my new Windows 11 laptop and works great. However I’ve been disappointed with the performance on my iPhone. It has slowed my web browsing to a crawl. I’ve turned it off for now in hopes that you can update the software Thanks Lou

  • MS Defender used all my cell data then stopped working

    The day after I installed MS Defender I got a text from my cellular carrier saying I was out of data. I don’t use cellular data…my plan only gives me 2 gigs between my husband and I. I checked which apps used the data and MS Defender used 1.87 gigs in the one day it was installed! I then went to the app to see if I could figure out why it used so much cellular data (I was inside most of the day working) and got an error that MS Defender stopped working. So, I just uninstalled it.
