???

My bitdefender on my iPad and my iPhone, but always have trouble on my PC with it??? PC shows subscription has expired yet scans fine on iPad and iPhone.

Viruses

Does not find viruses. Had to scan MalwareBytes to find them!

Inferior than Norton for mobile iOS protection

Web scanning has to be turned on everyday.
It is not proactive. Not doing a good job with AI.

Everything!

It’s really all you need to protect every device you have. I’ve tried them all. This one I’ll be keeping!

Security

This is a great mobile security

AOL mail and my alternate VPN issues

There does not seem to be a way to turn off error messages that my device Needs Attention because I have not installed Bitdefender VPN. I have my own VPN.
And the email protection does not include AOL mail.

Newest version 7.8.7 fixed the wifi flaw

The newest update has corrected the “You’re not on WiFi flaw that was present in 7.8.6. Thanks for your prompt attention to correcting that problem!

Slows connection down

This app slows the connection down by nearly 70%. App updates take up to 3 times longer.

Don’t download

Keeps making me try to sign in can’t even try it out

The best possible

I know when you think of personal information or you think of different accounts with their credit cards or bank account doesn’t matter with Bitdefender. You don’t have to worry that’s the key. You don’t have to worry.

Something isn’t quite right

When I run a scan it shows that I’m not on wifi even though I am

Wi-Fi nor recognized

After the last update, Mobile Security doesn’t recognize my Wi-Fi during a scan.

Easy to use

This app is excellent to see and assure yourself that your phone is working well. It offers protection and help when needed every time.

Décevant depuis quelque temps, nouveau problème, ne détecte pas que je suis connecté au wi-fi.

Something wrong with last update

Scan says that I am not connected to WiFi but I am. Problem with update

Unnecessary AI

No one asked or needed AI for this app or any other. Severely disappointed with bitdefender for taking this route.

So many bugs

And so often… It will say I’m not connected to WiFi when I am or won’t record and report data as it is supposed to do. And if you submit a ticket, you may hear back months later that they’re still working on it.

Latest version 7.8.6 has several flaws

Don’t download this newest version as it has several flaws. When you run a scan, it says you’re not using WiFi even though you are. Scamio pro still doesn’t work (keeps saying “Couldn’t send. Tap to re-try” but when you tap again you get the same message). They need to fix these issues on the iOS version.

Good but not to my expectations

Overall, Bitdefender works well, but there are several areas that need improvement, especially on iPhone.

* When Bitdefender WireGuard VPN is enabled, my internet connection often stops working, and apps that require internet access also fail to function.
* When the Bitdefender VPN is turned on, Mobile Security appears to stop working properly, and internet browsing is no longer monitored.
* At times, an unknown app seems to disable or override the Bitdefender VPN without my knowledge, leaving the device unprotected.
* Apps such as Instagram continue running in the background, accessing location services and transferring data, which contributes to excessive battery drain. Bitdefender does not appear to detect or alert me to this activity.
* Potentially malicious files received through apps such as WhatsApp are not detected. I would like Bitdefender to provide better scanning of downloaded files and attachments where iOS permissions allow.
* Some apps may access the camera, GPS, or continuously transmit location data in the background. Bitdefender should detect unusual behaviour and notify users of suspicious activity.
* Whenever I notice sudden device heating or abnormal battery drain, I often have to reset my network and mobile settings to restore normal operation. It would be helpful if Bitdefender could automatically monitor for abnormal background activity, especially unexpected data transfers during the night, and alert the user.
* On iPhone, I cannot configure scanning or monitoring for Calendar, SMS, or WhatsApp messages. While I understand this may be due to iOS limitations, I would appreciate any additional protection that is technically possible.
* It would also be useful if Bitdefender displayed a persistent on-screen status or notification showing that protection is active. This would reassure users that the security features are running correctly.
