That innocuous looking app in the list may be malicious. Anyone with physical access to your phone can install the spy app discreetly and it can spy on you in stealth mode.

Mitigation strategies:

  1. Always install apps from Google Play Store only
  2. Disable “Install from Unknown Sources” option.
  3. Enable Google Play Protect in “Settings”
  4. Be cautious, to whom you give your phone. The role of Physical security is paramount
  5. If you are streaming your phone’s screen for online class or any reason, your OTPs are visible to your entire audience. Disable peek notifications. (Updated on COVID-19 pandemic days of 2020)

In Augmented reality, digital data is layered on to the real world. You can experience it via a  Smartphone.
