Realme Mobiles: How to Know if They Have Viruses and Eliminate Them

We have seen on many occasions how Android is a malware strainer. In many occasions it is the user’s own hand that can cause the problem, but in others, it is Google’s own detection tools that fail. Recall that the Android operating system accounts for approximately 75% of the smartphone market. This is a magnet for virus and malware creators.

As we say, and on our site we have told you on several occasions, malware and viruses, which have no other purpose than to damage our device or violate our privacy, have even managed to bypass Google’s security to sneak into the Play Store. There are many and increasingly sophisticated variants of malware, spyware or even ramsomware, on the hunt for clueless.

Realme’s anti-virus

Luckily, our mobiles incorporate more and more tools as standard to be able to identify, and if necessary, clean our mobiles from this type of malicious software. Realme‘s mobiles include their own antivirus solution. This is great news for its owners, since it will avoid the need to have to cheat or pay for a third-party antivirus. In addition, on many occasions, false antivirus solutions have been detected, when some program of recognized prestige is not downloaded.

How to activate it

In case we have any suspicion of intrusion or suspicious operation of the system , we can carry out a scan for viruses. This tool is found within the Phone Manager application, which is installed as standard. Therefore, we will have to enter it. Inside we will see a series of options, since it also serves to carry out other types of checks on the phone.

Once inside the option, we will have two options: the first will scan our phone for applications with viruses. These applications may be installed and running in memory or could simply have been installed without our consent, by another infected app. The terminal will search and do a thorough cleaning.

The second option will scan for infected files. This means that we can have applications in the form of “apk” and other types of files, infected even if they have not been executed. Our relame will also perform a comprehensive search to automatically identify and remove them. The virus databases are constantly updated to always be protected. Both in this case and in the previous one, the time it takes for the application will depend on our internal memory capacity or the reading capabilities of each mobile.
