## Microsoft Defender Reviews in United States

### **--- "Technical issues"
The VPN feature, which was disconnected last year, still appears in the interface of my Microsoft Defender account app, despite no longer being functional. To resolve this, I had to completely delete the app from my device.
-- wisemore, 2026-09-11

### **--- "But I was turning on when I’m not active with that to keep my browser protected by a phone protectiv"
I can not have this on my because Benjamin doesn’t support The VNpbrowser
-- mygodis1$, 2026-09-09

### *---- "It sucks"
Don’t know who made it suck, but they should fix it.
-- @&)!$/, 2026-08-28

### ***** "Still trying to figure it all out"
I’m happy to have Microsoft Defender. It lets me know when security issues might arise. However, I still have a few kinks to work out.
-- Jhawkazumi, 2026-08-25

### **--- "Doesn’t work for iPhone/iPad"
Constant “Something went wrong” error so unable to see notifications on iOS devices. VPN works, but slows down phone.
-- virgo39mom, 2026-08-25

### ***** "Defender of the faith"
We love it!
-- Mark web coders, 2026-08-17

### ***** "Update"
I could not get the dark web thing to work. But I then deleted the app, and reinstalled. For some reason it not works.
It’s proving to be one of the more useful apps. And it has a VPN I think.
