5 Steps to Find & Remove Secretly Installed Apps on Your Android

  • Check recently installed apps in the Play Store by sorting the "Manage apps and device" list.
  • Review the full list of apps in your phone's settings under "Apps" for any unfamiliar entries.
  • Examine app permissions in "Privacy" -> "Permission Manager" for suspicious access to sensitive features like camera or microphone.
  • Verify if "Install unknown apps" permission is enabled for unexpected apps, which could facilitate secret installations.
  • If suspicious apps are found, uninstall them, change your Google password, and enable two-factor authentication.

Why It Matters: Safeguard your privacy and device security by detecting hidden apps.
