Bitdefender Native Apple Silicon And Memory Usage. Any Help?

Shing

I have two questions about Bitdefender for Mac. I have a 2021 MacBook Pro with M1 Pro.

According to the Activity Monitor, Bitdefender is running using Intel code. When will we see an update that makes this app Apple Silicon native?

I have noticed that this app is a memory hog, consistently using more than 1GB of memory. Is this due to the Intel coding? If not, what is Bitdefender doing to reduce this huge resource?

Hello.

First, take screenshot(s) of the issue

and create a log file on your MacOS device using BDProfiler, by following these steps:

Next, contact Bitdefender Consumer Support by e-mail:

with short description of the issue.

After that, you will get an automated reply by the Bitdefender Customer Care Team, with your ticket number.

Now, in reply to that automated reply, you can send the screenshot(s) you already took and the log file you already created in the first step.

Since you are all done, just wait for the support engineers to investigate your issue and find a solution to fix the issue.

Remember that the screenshot(s) and the log file will help a lot to the support engineers for better and faster investigation on your issue and finding a solution.
