What precautions are necessary while installing any new app?

You should avoid downloading any app available on the play store. Only install trusted apps and take full care while installing them as well.

The largest number of users in our country are from Android smartphones. We mostly download and install the Google Play Store apps, but many times we install apps from the Play Store without even thinking. While installing the app, we do not know how many times we easily click on the ‘I agree’ and ‘Terms and conditions’ without reading the terms and conditions. This mistake may outweigh us.

Do not give permission easily

Whenever users download an app from the play store, the app asks for permissions. These permits contain messages, phone call details, media files, contacts. By doing this, we give access to the application and our contacts may be tampered with. Before installing these apps we need to read the term and condition carefully and do not give permissions easily.

Hackers can reach the gallery

Apart from this, when we download a photo editing app, we are asked for access to the camera and gallery and we also give it. Such apps can be dangerous. With their help, hackers can access your gallery. However, if you skip the permissions while downloading the app, you cannot take advantage of all the features of the app. At the same time, if you give access, then the risk of your personal data leaking increases. Almost all mobile apps transmit and receive data between phones and remote servers. We should be careful while installing the app.
