Microsoft Defender version 1.0.5310.0101 running on Android 12 (Build S3RHS32.20-42-10-4-4)is buggy, Web Protection constantly crashes and does not produce useful diagnostics. It fails one or more times daily, even when the Android device is idle and has not been in use. It crashes, shuts down, the only indication is an alert and text message afterward that the device is not protected. Restarting it is a pain requiring navigation to five different pages. Once re-started it works fine for a while, then goes offline again. It has done this on every Android device I have installed it on. I am tired of its unreliability and being forced to restart it every day. When will it get fixed?
