Microsoft Defender Reviews

Won’t log in

Like so many other state, download the app and try to log in with M365 account and it rejects it and says to sign in with Google. That doesn’t work either

Being with Microsoft Defender is the best one I have used for a long time.

Rubbish

Open it up, displays your Microsoft accounts, you pick one. It won’t let you login and suggest “login with Google”. Really?? You’re absolutely joking that I want to log in with Google when the whole point is to link in with your a Microsoft world. Joke. Useless.

Absolutely Criminal

If you want security but don’t mind spending hours waiting to do stuff that normally takes minutes then this is the app for you. Otherwise pay for a VPN because it’ll make life so much easier!

Messes with connectivity

Useless app, interferes with connectivity. As a result I lost connection whilst navigating and ended up being sent the wrong way by Waze, adding over an hour to my journey. Thanks Microsoft

tractor cars on

United Kingdom

Latest update problematic

mpreasy on

United Kingdom

Since the latest updates 30% of my battery was used by Defender, internet wouldn’t load for many services

Big problem.

Mick Brookes on

United Kingdom

OneDrive refused to upload my photos. I tried everything. Changed settings as per Microsoft website and finally reinstalled OneDrive. Still wouldn't work. Finally I deleted Defender and uploads started immediately. These apps are from the same company! Mr Lefthand, may I introduce Mr. Righthand. Please talk to each other.

Not amused

The app is fine im just not impressed with Microsoft and all of that with them consistently logging into my account. I have emailed several times as they just come on my emails when they feel like it but i have been ignored for two years. Can someone give me Microsoft’s proper email address please it would be gratefully accepted thankyou

You might be safe with this installed, but you won’t be able to do half the things you regularly do. And all much slower. Supermarket shopping apps simply stopped working with this installed. And the internet is ridiculously slow with constant errors loading pages. Don’t bother. Just be careful. Spotify stutters and stops. Complete waste of money.
