Malwarebytes Premium and Browser Guard on Chromebook

I have a premium licence which covers 3 devices, one of which I installed successfully on an ASUS Chromebook months ago. In the last 10 days, I installed MB Browser Guard. Each app shows a different icon location on the screen. Premium is at the bottom right corner, Browser Guard is in the upper right corner. When I check my content stats with BG, a message tells me "This feature is only available with Malwarebytes Premium."

In order to coordinate them together, I'm thinking they might have to be installed at the same time. This would require uninstalling both then reinstalling, back to back. 

Do you have a recommendation? 

Thank you.

That might not be available in the Chromebook version of Premium. The integration.

Any way to check for certain?

The correct staff will have to answer.

Or just accept it as is?

I would not worry about that function in any version. When bad stuff is blocked you see the blocks as they happen. In my opinion, that feature is not needed.

I turn this off on every Windows computer I service with Malwarebytes installed.

That's what I thought-and more relevant too. I'll leave it and wait for the M-F crew. Not worried at all, just a minor detail I was curious about. Thanks again for the answer and screenshots.

@NewTricks the Android version of Premium is not currently connected to Browser Guard as noted above.

There's a new version of the Android app releasing soon and then later in the year we'll look at integration of that with the Browser Guard extension.  In the meantime, we'll look into suppressing the paid features of BG on Chromebooks to remove the confusion.

We appreciate your feedback and suppport!
