Take a quick glance over your mobile apps, see what you have installed there.
- Revoke permissions for apps that require access to sensitive information - why would a flashlight app request access to read your messages, for example?
- Keep your apps updated - this lowers the chances for malware to take advantage of their vulnerabilities.
- Remove any apps you haven’t been using - they are vulnerabilities for your security and privacy.
And remember to never install apps from anywhere else but the official app store. In Android, there’s a setting that also doesn’t allow apps from third parties to be installed.
