4. It's as easy for your Android phones to catch viruses as your computer
systems. Android is the world's largest mobile operating system and it is
considered as an 'open' operating system, which allows it to be altered by
manufacturers easily. But on the downside, this means that the Android
operating system is more prone to malware as compared to other operating
systems.
5. Since you mandatorily use Windows computer systems without malware
protection to protect it from viruses, similarly even your Android smartphone
must be protected and not left exposed. The good thing about Android is that
protecting it is quite simple, straightforward and free. Read on to find out how
you can protect your android smartphone from viruses:
6. 1.Keep your Android phone updated
Every update comes with bug fixes to help protect the phone, it is required to keep
your android system software updated. To check for updates go to Settings >
System > Advanced > System update. You will see your software update status
there and you can even verify if your software is up to date; if not then the new
version must be available to download.
7. 2.Restrict your downloads with a password
Smartphones are very personal to each individual, yet if you tend to let other
people use your Android smartphone it is always a good option to enable a
password for installation of purchases like films, music, Tv shows, and other apps.
This option is highly recommended for parents who would want to restrict their
children from installing or purchasing any apps without their knowledge.
8. You can do so by going to the Google Play store then tap the
three-bar menu button. Tap Settings and search Require
authentication for purchases. You can select all if you want or
Every 30 minutes from the pop-up box. Then you will have to
enter a password with any purchases you make on your
Android smartphone.

10. 3.Refrain from installing apps from unknown
sources
Downloading media or installing apps from unknown sources are the major causes of viruses in your Android
devices. The good thing about Android phones is that it blocks you from installing them unless you have opted
otherwise.
It used to be permitted to opt-in if you want the apps installed in your phones from unknown sources, but the 8.0
version (also known as Oreo) removed this option for Android users. So there are possibly fewer chances of getting
your Samsung, Micromax or Oneplus repairs. This version instead makes you grant the individual app permission to
install unknown apps. These apps from unknown sources are unreliable and not recommended, such apps could
contain viruses that have the potential to damage your phone. It is always best and safest to download your apps
from the Google Play Store.
11. Some apps of Google Play Store will sometimes want to access information from your
phone. These apps are authorized to access certain features, just like photo apps will
need access to the device's storage. Some of these apps ask for your permission and
show you the information they need before you install them while some apps do not
provide that. However, you can view the information that a particular app can access on
the app's detail page in the Play Store by scrolling down to App permissions.
4.Read app permissions thoroughly
12. You get to read the details about the app before sharing your personal information
before you install the app. Moreover, the Virus protection apps scan all the apps on your
phone and even rank them by the level of privacy sensitivity. By analyzing this
information you can decide better if you want to go ahead and install the app or not.

14. In case you have already been a victim of viruses in your Android phones, your work for
removing the viruses has to start immediately.
The antivirus apps and programs detect viruses but they do not always effectively work
towards removing them. These apps fail to do their job because some viruses are
particularly resolute in nature. And now you can figure out that it is time to call an expert,
avoid attempting to remove viruses manually. Get your Android phones be it Samsung,
Micromax or Oneplus to your nearest repair centers and let them take care of it further.
