Best Anti-Virus For Your Android Devices
You must have heard that crime grows with growing economy. It is same with the popularizing operating systems. ‘Brain’ was the first computer virus on MS-DOS, which infected the boot sector (I know this is not a CS lecture, sorry). Android is the biggest mobile OS in terms of the user base with over seventy percent share of all smartphones.
Over the years, we have seen plenty of virus infections on our desktop PCs, and with net access over smartphones and infected SD cards have started corrupting our Android devices with that as well. These viruses lead to constant crashing of the OS, screen freezing and most of the time infecting data and documents on our phone. Resetting the device to factory settings might help you with this over the cost of your data. But, there are Antidotes for every infection (almost). Out of many options available for anti-viruses on Google Play Store, we have picked the best Anti-Virus to ease your work.
