  • Hello,

    This isolated behaviour is already known.

    To add here, it has also been noticed that whenever the phone is restarted, a notification in Central is received and this shows that there are configuration issues for the device involving Web Protection. However, when checking the device in the "My devices" tab in Central, the device appears as ‘safe’, with no issues displayed. Mobile Security doesn’t display any issues either and Web Protection is on.

    These isolated errors have been reported in both the Central App and Central web.

    The product teams are currently investigating this behaviour and should come up with a resolution soon. But I would still advise you to contact them, as they may provide an ETA for a fix and maybe a workaround as well. You can use the link below to get in touch with the Bitdefender engineers:

  • I've noticed the same issue on 2 of my cellphones.

  • The product teams are currently investigating this behaviour and should come up with a resolution soon

    I have experienced this issue on-going for a few years now and it continues to this day with a Pixel 5 cell phone.

    I dont come to these forums often so I am just hoping there is something I can do (a series of steps) to resolve it.

  • If this is a know issue by the support team why hasn't been a solution as it looks like this issue has been seen by other users for some years now.

  • Hello @Law131,

    Do you encounter this behavior on Android or iOS?

    As far as I know, this issue was resolved, but if you are still experiencing this on your devices, please head to the link below to get in touch with the Support teams for further investigation, as more details are required from the device (OS, BMS version, etc) to troubleshoot this:
