hey guys stoppable here today I'm going
to be showing you how to remove a virus
or malware off your phone now a virus is
any sort of application that makes your
phone run differently than it should so
we can charge you on your baking account
it can change your cake and mess with
your contacts I show you pop-up ads and
it can just become really really
annoying
I haven't had to deal with them in the
past but I know they can really really
mess up your phone and it just becomes
the phones becomes non usable so I'm
going to be showing you how to remove it
so first of all you want to identify
what app is causing the problem so to be
doing this you want to go swipe down go
into settings and search for apps apps
or applications and you'll scroll down
and you'll find whatever app you think
is causing the problem now it probably
won't be an app like YouTube or anything
that you've gone from the Google Play
Store although there has been a virus in
the past called the googly and virus and
in fact apps that you can download from
the Google Play Store but I do believe
that they've updated it so it has Google
Play protect which will scan the apps
before they are released onto the Google
Play Store to make sure that they are
not infected with the googly and virus
so you're gonna want to scroll down find
your app in some cases the virus will be
the very bottom and it will have no name
and no icon and so when you go down into
your home it won't be appearing on your
screen which will make it yeah it tries
to make you on not be able to detect to
a detective so you're gonna want to find
it once you found it you're gonna want
to boot into safe mode now safe mode is
completely safe obviously and what it
does is that it takes all of the
third-party apps or apps you downloaded
from the Google Play Store
but it won't get rid of like the brown
of your browsers and stuff like that so
how to do it
for your Android you're gonna want to
hold down your power button I've got an
LG so it's gonna give me this screen but
you're gonna have a power off section
hold that down until it says safe mode
to turn on safe mode the phone will
restart and certain apps will be
unavailable to help troubleshoot the
phone when you were stuck the phone
again safe mode will be turned off and
all acts will be available so now you're
gonna want to turn on safe mode I'm not
gonna do this now but it's just like
your regular phone except all your
third-party apps will be turned off and
you also have a little signal down in
the bottom left corner that will say
safe mode a little box otherwise your
phone will be completely sane
and then again you're gonna want to go
in settings find your apps and find the
app that's causing the problem and
uninstall it now if you could not
uninstall it like um if you guys have
that problem you're gonna it's probably
it probably had asked you you might not
remember but when you installed the app
it probably asks you for administrative
purposes and what administrator does is
it can basically just take over the
phone it has permission to take control
of your banking account your contacts
instant messaging anything like that it
can take control of anything so you're
gonna want to search up administrators
phone administrators and so we've got
mine here secure teen and find my device
find my device is to lock or erase lost
device obviously here you need that
don't turn it off unless it is a third
party find my device which very well
could be a malware or virus then you
should probably look into uninstalling
that just make sure that you're not and
still uh uninstalling the one that has
come pre-installed with your phone
security in just helps me protect
against viruses stuff like that so once
it has once you're in the screen you're
gonna want to turn the apps that you do
not want off because those apps are
and those apps probably a malware if
you've installed them here and there an
administrator you're gonna want to flip
this off get out of the screen and you
should be able to go and I'll install
them now now that their administrator
purposes have been disabled so they
won't have to control over your file
anymore so once you get once you do that
I'll install the app so I'll just go
I'll make an example I'll go on to this
game and you're gonna want to press for
stop first that's gonna stop everything
that it does and then you're going to
want to press uninstall now then you're
gonna want to go into your app trash
I've got one
and you're gonna wanted to leave it here
too just to make sure that it's been
erased off your phone and if you don't
that it's it's probably been erased off
your phone you should be safe I would
look into downloading an app that can
find hidden apps so when the ones that
was talking about they don't have an
icon or don't have any either do they
don't have a name so I've got this thing
called hidden a protector from Google
Play Store it's completely safe got a
virus and it will show you all the apps
that are hidden I'd also look into
finding in their app like Avast
Antivirus is a good one or malwarebytes
is recommended for computers but also
has an Android wart richlum those ones
are very good they're very secure and
will keep your phone safe from any
malware and you'll scan your downloads
