Smartphones have made our lives smart. It is not just the hardware, operating, system, or touchscreen display making things easier for us, but the apps are also responsible for handling most of our smartphone-based work. We are so used to interacting with apps for everything that we sometimes forget that some apps pose a security threat.

We often use several apps related to shopping, travel, studies, and social media and give them access to our Google sign-up. But this is not safe. To protect your device from hackers, you need to take safety steps or remove third-party apps from your smartphone.
