Some smartphone users may be concerned that advanced security settings and regular monitoring would be needed in order to keep their devices safe. Fortunately, though, some of the crucial preventative measures are very low-maintenance. Play Protect, as Google Play Help reports, scans apps users download from the App Store, and once they’re stored on a device, for signs of malware or other malicious intent. Crucially, the service also prevents apps able to do so from circumventing permissions and accessing personal information.
Play Protect is enabled by following these simple steps:
-
From the Google Play Store app, open up your profile.
-
Select Settings from the Play Protect Menu, then enable Scan Apps with Play Protect. Or ensure it’s still enabled, as the case may be.
The Improve harmful app detection option goes one better by sharing unfamiliar apps with Google. With this simple procedure, your Samsung Galaxy is far more robustly protected. 2.5 billion devices around the world use Play Protect (Android), vouching for its sheer popularity and effectiveness, but there’s certainly no need to leave it there. It’s quite important, too, to augment blanket protection such as this with more targeted measures.
