Kan du downloade en virus fra en appbutik?
Can you download a virus from an app store?
Det er usandsynligt, men muligt. Officielle app­butikker, for eksempel Google Play Store og Samsung Galaxy Store, har kontrol­processer for at fange ond­sindede apps og virus. Selvom det er sjældent, slipper der en gang imellem ondsindede apps igennem. Og som sagt, nogle apps kan gøre skadelige ting uden at være virus. Disse apps kan down­loades fra app­butikker. Uofficielle appbutikker er dog noget andet. De kan være stort set alt. Det samme gælder for apps, der down­loades fra web­steder. Stol kun på officielle app­butikker for at beskytte din telefon bedre.
It’s unlikely, but possible. Official app stores, such as Google Play Store and Samsung Galaxy Store, have vetting processes to catch malicious apps and viruses. While rare, every now and then malicious apps get through. And like said, some apps can do bad things without being viruses. These apps can be downloaded from app stores. Unofficial app stores, however, are a different thing. They can be practically anything. Same goes for apps downloaded from websites. Only trust official app stores to better protect your phone.
