The open nature source of platform Android has led to some amazing applications and known a deeply personalized unmatched by any other mobile operating system. This open nature may also be a double-edged sword, because anyone can develop software and even against malicious software due to relatively lax Google screening process some of these malware applications have found their way on the Android market. Here are three tips to ensure the safety of the malicious software from your phone.
1. If you are unsure of what an application download
The Android Market has well over ten thousand apps, so it is easy to feel like your head more in the navigation market. Many of us have even installed an application almost at random to see what he has done on the phone knowing it can easily be uninstalled later. It is tempting to try things as much as possible but it is also very dangerous. Make sure you read the description of the app and if it seems step legitiment or if it gives you a bad impression and then do not download it. Most of malicious software on the market is easy to avoid if you are looking for clues in the description of the app.
2 Do your homework
If you've never heard of an app before and sounds alright descriptions can also be useful run a quick search of Google. Each entry on the market shall provide the name of the company which submitted sub app. Take note of the name of the company and Google it later. If is found even a single report against them or their Web sites look like a little ladle does and then download. In cases like this, it is not worth the risk.
3. Use the comments Section
Each application on the Android market has a section where you can read and write comments. This comment section can be used as a great screening tool. If it is known to be malware then several comments may say, but there are also more subtle councils to monitor. For example, it is usual to end your comment with the phone, that you used when you installed the app. If you notice a trend where a large number of different devices are claiming that the application does not work it is possible, the app is not whatit announced and may actually be malware. On the other end of the spectrum if you have noticed the comments who say the app works are too short, as the "great work!" and have the device tag those that can be generated by a bot.
