Hello @Smiffy,

Are some of the apps system applications?

It's also important to know if the apps that don't appear there have been scanned before.

Bitdefender Mobile Security scans all installed applications and .apk files. There are a few system paths we do not scan, as follows:

1. System applications, as they SHOULD not be infected;

2. Applications installed in those locations cannot be uninstalled anyway.

Mobile Security will make sure that the Android device stays clean by automatically scanning any application immediately after its install. So, it will no longer scan those apps that have been scanned before or that have not been altered in any way. The only scanning option on Android is to scan the storage or not, and this is enabled by default. You can adjust the Scan Storage option from the Settings menu. However, it won't scan system applications.

I hope the information is helpful.

Regards
