[QUOTE="ForgottenSeer 103564, post: 1065984"] While i stand corrected to the first product i have seen that actually offers to remove the app, the point above was over looked and missed. By default out of the box the phone is secure, adding tons of goofy apps and changes, makes it not secure any more. Play protect is built in and scans the apps, its part of the ecosystem. Its up to the user to vet apps and potential issues. [SPOILER="play protect"][ATTACH type="full"]279831[/ATTACH][ATTACH]279831[/ATTACH][/SPOILER] Changes like the browser, adding a extension to it.
