Cybersecurity experts are always analyzing all kinds of tools or apps in search of possible viruses. Well, they have created a “blacklist” with a series of apps that contain quite dangerous malware. So, if you have any of the applications that we are going to mention, you better delete them immediately.
On more than one occasion, we have seen how different viruses have sneaked into the Android app store, that is, on Google Play. And it is that, despite the security of the electronic giant, and more so with Google Play Protect, there are still many applications with malware that manage to enter the catalog of apps. So users trust that they are legitimate and download them without worry.
34 apps that you have to delete
In this latest analysis, they have found up to 34 applications with malware on Google Play. The main drawback, or rather danger, is that the virus found in this list of apps is the famous joker. This spyware danger is not the first time that it appears in a large number of applications within the store for Android devices.
In addition, another of the big problems is that it is found in a series of apps, supposedly legitimate, that have been accumulating a large number of downloads. So if in your case you have any of the following applications, you have to delete them immediately from your Android smartphone:
