I Uninstalled go keyboard and it disappeared dont use go stuff
Glad you resolved the issue.

I suggest using Bitdefender Free Antivirus for Android as they are a trusted vendor in the security industry, and offer Android users basic protection without compromise. Paid options are optional, but not necessarily needed.

Recently malicious apps re-surfaced, so be wary of third-party free AV, free VPN and free Keyboards apps on the Google Play Store.

Generally avoiding third-party Keyboards apps that promote Emojis and other "fancy" features, also can you really trust the developers who could potentially track everything you type??

I recommend Gboard by Google (preferred choice)

SwiftKey is another popular one, but it was acquired by Microsoft.

Based on the fact they're trusted companies, they are committed to your privacy and security, and mostly Ad-Free, so no more Lockscreen Ads - which is now banned. If you dislike both, using the default keyboard on your Android might be better.
