How Can I Add A Chromebook As New Device Via Link?
All I want to do is add a chromebook. I grab the link from BD central, I get the page telling me to get ready to install, but the download never starts. Any ideas anyone?

Welcome to the forum.
Unfortunately, Bitdefender is not compatible with Chromebook. Only Windows, Android, Mac and iOS are compatible.
Kind regards,

Kindly have a look at below stated link
Once you will be able to install bitdefender mobile security on your chromebook, it will only scan for android packages file, meaning file having extension .apk and nothing else.

Thanks for that. I'd done a search and seen talk of people being able to use it on chromebook. obviously those with Google play. Unfortunately mine doesn't support it. Oh well, thanks anyway.

If you can run it on Android, you should be able to run this on Chrome. Especially the newer generations which support Google play.

To my surprise, bitdefender does not work on Chromebook or chromebox, or kindle fire. One would think that they would mention this at time of Anti virus purchase....very dissapointing

ORIGINAL COMMENT BY @Alexandru_BD IN ANOTHER THREAD BY THE SAME USER @Dermot
Hello @Dermot,
You can install Android applications on Chromebook. Bitdefender Mobile Security can be installed as an Android application, but scanning will only be available for other android applications, thus it will not provide full coverage.
The question has been previously asked by one of our members here:

In regards to Kindle, Fire OS is a mobile operating system based on the Android Open Source Project, it is developed by Amazon for their devices. Fire OS includes proprietary software, a customized user interface primarily centered on content consumption, and heavy ties to content available from Amazon's storefronts and services.
All supported operating systems are displayed on the product page on the official Bitdefender website:
