Slowly Google has been battling malicious "insulted" apps in the Google Play store. The result of this effort came with Google Play Protect, a program that monitors the apps we work with and tests whether it is powerful or harmful to our device. Last example, Wiseplay.

Google Play Protect receives the news in recent days. We explain what they combine and what these different ideas are.
The system is not perfect, but Google is slowly solving the problem that endangers users' privacy, as well as giving Android a bad name. The last victim of such cleanliness of malicious applications, as we mentioned earlier, was Wiseplay.
Google removes and recommends removing Wiseplay
As mentioned in the introduction, Google Play Protect application monitoring system. If you find inappropriate or inappropriate behavior, in case you violate Google Play Store laws, such request will be deleted
Wiseplay was removed in the last hours from the Google Play Store. Notify all users who have installed on your device, yours uninstall immediately. The reason according to Google, the suspicious behavior of the app is that I was trying to control our service management or steal our information.
Last but not least, it's a great idea since you installed the program the number of permissions we were asked for was too high. In addition to asking us permission to access the archive, something that makes sense that we were an actor, he wanted more of us.
Our reach contacts, phone and phones, camera … Permissions are far from what a media player may need. Problem? Users do not read from our screen, by pressing the next, next button as if there is no tomorrow.
There are apps that take advantage of the fact that users do not read the permissions
Malicious requests are well worth this longing, even though a message warning us that our money will be stolen, users we want to install the app
Some of the symptoms were indicative Wiseplay was not pure wheat was its disclosure, it was extremely clear. But if the app uses advertising is not a bad thing, the problem is with the type of advertising used. And at Wiseplay there were many offensive ads and we try to play it with us With a few clicks.
An example was an ad that featured a full screen, mimicking the environment, sounds and vibration of the phone. Too many details to be a simple ad No? Or maybe they expect some user not to notice that they are pressing, thinking it's a real phone call.
The only thing we can recommend, like Google, is If you are a user of this program, uninstall immediately. Another compliment, usually with everything we do on our phone, take a few seconds to read the permissions
It is important to ask ourselves if it makes sense, for example, the flashlight system requires access to our phones, storage and the like. You are in this situation it is better to look for a less desirable alternative and then actually do what it promises without "small print."
