smartphone tips
Are you seeing different types of marks on your phone? Is your phone’s battery discharging quickly? Are some new notifications visible on the phone screen? If so, then you need to be careful. This usually happens when the phone is hacked. Hackers install malware-containing apps in your phone without your knowledge, due to which you see these marks.
Hackers send this malware to gain access to your phone’s camera, location and microphone. These days, in the latest smartphones, you see these notifications on the screen, which lets you know that someone is accessing the phone’s microphone, camera and location etc. even without your consent. In such a situation, you need to be very careful.
These marks start appearing
You’ll see a green light next to the camera in the notification panel of your screen, indicating that the phone’s camera is being used. An app is accessing your camera. At the same time, when the microphone is accessed, red or orange light will appear in the notification panel of the phone. At the same time, when screen recording is on, a white light will be visible in the notification panel or the icon of screen recording is also visible.
do this work immediately
If you are not using any app which gives access to camera, microphone or location etc., then you need to be careful. All those permissions should be turned off from the apps, with the help of which malware is accessing the phone.
For this, go to the phone’s settings and go to the apps option and turn off all permissions from all the apps. By doing this the permissions of camera, microphone and location etc. will be removed. Even after doing this, if these marks are visible in the notification panel on the phone screen, then you will have to factory reset the phone because this hidden malware is accessing the system. Performing a factory reset will stop the malware from accessing your device.
