This has turned into the most annoying app on my phone. Every other day I get a notification that web defense has been turned off. I have to go in click through three different windows and then get taken to a separate window by the app and by that time I have no idea what I'm supposed to turn on, there are no instructions. I finally find what I'm supposed to turn on and I turn it on. Two days later something has turned it off. I don't know what that something is. This needs fixing! Edited

Honestly, it's no better or no worse than any other Microsoft product. And what I mean by that is sometimes it can be buggy. Sometimes it can be a little bit too eager to meet the need of the consumer. Sometimes you will have to just cold, cut it. To prevent it from occupying, too many resources on your device. But overall, it does what it's supposed to do. It defends against viruses

I have used this app for a few months now with no issues. It runs in the background, scans in real-time, and doesn't slow anything down. I'm still able to use every app I have on my phone with no issues whatsoever. To be honest, I forgot it was on my phone until tonight when it needed an update. (I do manual app updates). Microsoft scans your phone, computer (PC app required), the dark web for your info and so much more. VPN works great for using public WIFI and 5GB is included, all for free!!

This app definitely does work and you won't question it's validity. It brings your phone to a crawl because its scanning everything. Even as I'm typing this the page loading spinny thing is going. 😆 Honestly, I'm not sure if it's a good thing or bad thing but I will say you'll experience a definite performance hit on your phone. Hopefully Microsoft will fix this issue in future versions.

Easy to use and it works on pretty much any operating system. Awesome protection for basic users. However, I would like to have more control. I switched from Bit Defender and miss the control I had over my device and other devices under my subscription plan including forcing updates, scans, and locating my family's devices as well as just being able to control more protection settings.
