Hi welcome to my new blog I hope you all fine and doing great so in today blog we discuss what are the things need to check while downloading any app fromGoogle play store if you are using android phones you might have download many apps till date however do you even know when download the apps from the play store that not only could steal your potential data and even hack your phone thus it is important to run a few checks before you tapping a download button from any app from the google play store.reason being there are lots of fake apps or similar apps are run by the google play store they dont have the capacity to screen out for Malware and Hackers but Thankfully there are few signs to watch out before you download any app so the signs are:
1.See the App Permission: If you are using android phones you get the new updates of using an app for example if you an using an app for editing purpose they might ask you for storage,space camera photo gallery and microphone depend on its usage However if they ask you unusual permission like yr contact number or any personal information then do not use that app because in usually photo editing people dont enquire about yr personal information so use the app which ask for the necessary information not asking any beyond information.
2.Check the App reviews:Always check the app reviews before downloading it because people mostly post their reviews after using an app and even give the rating as well and always read and check the reviews this practise helps you take your decision wisely.These days people arent shy to tell their problems they are facing through their post.
3.See the number of downloads: Any app which is harmful might have dozens of download for example if some app is released few days ago has got many downloads then you can smell a rat because app is claiming million of download which was manipulated figures by frausters .then dont use such app.
4.Read the app description: Google play store Always provides an app description and the app creator name you can also see the developer name and check others app that is important to cross check the information about the person before you install any app.
These are the ways we save from hackers and malfunctioning apps plz go through the information and check the rating and the reviews before installing any app.
