In Bitdefender’s Scam Alert feature for Android, will disabling certain apps this way stop Bitdefender from monitoring them? i mean turning on the features mentioned below an unchecking the specific apps. @Flexx @Alexandru_BD @Scott anybody?

    Hello @Rock.87,

    From what I understand, if you uncheck an app there, then you won't receive notifications anymore, and I don't think this is what you are looking for. Of course, in this scenario implicitly the notifications won't apply to Mobile Security either, but for WhatsApp for example, Bitdefender would still monitor with Chat Protection (which uses Accessibility, not Notification Access).
    In short, it doesn't have such a feature (toggle independent per-app protection) and I don't see why it would do that anyway. I don't think something like this will ever be implemented.
