This issue may occur if the "accessibility" features required to use the Web Threat Protection feature are no longer available from Virus Block.
We are continuing to investigate the cause of the inability to use the "Accessibility" feature.
If you are still experiencing issues after updating the app to the latest version, please check if the following steps resolve the issue.

To enable the Wi-Fi safety check, you need to enable the [Location] permission.
The [Location information] permission is used to check the security of the Wi-Fi connection when using banking apps etc. over Wi-Fi.
