Simple apps for managing Bluetooth on your Android device turned out to be dangerous malware: what are the 4 apps at risk, and what to do if they have been downloaded?
More minor but still considerable numbers for Drivers: Bluetooth, Wi-Fi, USB, Bluetooth App Sender, and Mobile transfer: smart switch. The three apps have collectively surpassed 100,000 downloads.
