BUYER BEWARE! I downloaded this to submit support tickets to get my devices fixed, or at the very least taken seriously, but I cannot even submit screenshots because the Upload File box/link won't work. Then they keep telling me to take screenshots and contact support, but I have several times now, and I am doing all the work, and nothing is resolved

This is essentially an extension to the Bitdefender mobile security app. Features: locate your phone, lock the phone, sound an alarm, or remotely wipe the phone. Also, this is where you'd send up to 5 DL links to other devices to install Bitdefender. I gave it four stars simply because I think all security apps like this should come with a VPN automatically at the current subscription cost.

This app has almost none of the real functionality as the browser page for bit defender central...it's absolutely useless. Also there is a bug going on for 2 years now where protected devices show up as being unprotected, despite the device showing it is protected when you open bit defender on that device, and bitdefender doesn't have skilled enough developers to get this fixed. It's a joke.*I am already in contact with BD support about this with an open case, for 2 years. BD understand fine.*
