🔔 Additional Information
The app requires Device Administrator permission to activate Anti-Theft features.
Accessibility service is required to:
• Scan links in supported browsers for safe browsing
• Scan messages in chat apps to protect against scams
• Monitor app activity to detect advanced threats

Solely for the purpose of enabling these features, Bitdefender Mobile Security may collect and process URLs accessed via browsers or messaging apps, along with some app activity data. **Collected data is never shared with third parties.**

Bitdefender Mobile Security & Antivirus uses foreground services (TYPE_SPECIAL_USE) to promptly detect **PACKAGE_INSTALLED** events and scan newly installed or updated apps before they are opened — one of the app’s core functions.

I like the app but, the annoying constant notifications to use their VPN are very annoying. Tried everything mentioned online to stop them but I still get the messages. I do not want to disable all notifications thus I will not renew my subscription. It it that difficult to give me the option to say 'no' to the VPN and never bother me again? I guess so. (I use Proton VPN and I am very pleased with it and will not use Bitdefender VPN.)

Good so far but would like these features added to anti-theft: 1) add the ability to record the location when the battery gets low so if it gets lost or stolen and the battery dies then it's possible to have some idea of where it might be 2) add the ability to send a text with the pin and a code to my Android phone to cause it to lock, locate, or wipe. Update: 2 to 4 stars. The issue where it would download GBs of data is resolved. 3) give option to unlock apps via face detection as default

I use Bitdefender Mobile Security app and Bitdefender Total Security app on all of my phones and personal and business computers. I've used other apps previously, but this one keeps getting better every year. You can use the free version, but you'll be more secure with the Premium version, I assure you. It's not cheap but it's worth every dime for the peace of mind it brings. It also notifies you of security breaches of your emails if that occurs and what you should do about it!
