Android updates keep failing?

ncage2 · February 2022

This problem keeps on happening. Bitdefender never seems to be successful in updating. Here is what I see (play store):

I've tried to do a variety of things to fix it. I've tried uninstalling the app and then reinstalling it. I have manually updated the app (which always works fine) but then I will check it a week ago or so after and I see the same thing. I have a Google Pixel with the latest version of android (12 with January 2022 security update). This has been happening for quite a while. I have a ton of apps and Bitdefender is the only app I'm having an issue with. I'm assuming I'm not getting definition updates because Bitdefender has to update through the play store to get definition updates.

I have the same problem on my Samsung mobile updated to the latest android version. There are always issues with updating apps but it seems that if I turn off Bitdefender mobile security there are fewer problems.
