Ratings and Reviews
Garbage
This app full Garbage can!!!
Doesn’t work well - slow to respond to permission changes
I put this on my son’s phone yesterday and was testing out the features. For apps you can only block ALL the 3rd party apps or none of them. I tested the function for blocking apps. It didn’t work within 15 minutes, so I turned the function back to allow all 3rd party apps.
The next (today) morning my son tries to open a game and the 3rd party apps disappeared. I noticed the allow and block function of the apps was glitchy after saving the settings from the bitdefender central app. I’d go back into the app and the new settings didn’t save. I logged into the website and the settings did save there, but nothing changed on the phone for hours.
After fiddling with the app and Bitdefender central for 2 hours, I tried to connect to chat support. After waiting 15 minutes (for an estimated 5 minute wait with 3 people in front of me - that never changed). I gave up and removed the app and the bitdefender iOS profile settings. Then everything came back and worked fine.
Maybe the apps would’ve come back after more time, but it’s not convenient to wait hours and hours for the bitdefender settings profile to refresh. It’s not worth the hassle.

Not Enough
Does this not take advantage of the website blocking by interest for IOS? In Bitdefender app online I excluded my child from being able to view certain websites. However, this app does not appear to enforce those rules nor does it seem to allow me to block certain applications. Not finding anything clear cut on it this topic so research before buying if purchasing for blocking sites based on content/interest rules or blocking access to apps
