Whitelist on Android

How can I make Bitdefender Android ignore an app that is considered malware?

Hello @s3bastian,

Whenever you install an app, Bitdefender Mobile Security automatically scans it using in-the-cloud technology. The same scanning process starts each time the installed apps are updated. If the app is found to be malicious, an alert will appear prompting you to uninstall it. You can tap Uninstall to go to that app's uninstall screen.

As far as I know, there isn't a way to set an exception or to ignore the detection and I think there shouldn't be one in the first place. If Bitdefender detects something there, the app should be removed for obvious safety reasons.

Sure, an app might seem harmless at first sight, but you never know what it hides.
