First, check the application developer's name:
The name of the developer, be it an individual or company written under the name of the application Directly, the laws governing the Google Play store is that Google does not allow the name of the developer to be repeated for the same application, so when you download an application on the store, do not hesitate to read the developer's name carefully, and I say carefully because some developers are overriding this limitation with a small tag Or invisible next to the name of the developer or write a name in front of the clamps Such as FACEBOOK and FACEB00K. At first sight, there is no difference between the two words, but if you get a little bit, you will find that O has been replaced by 0 using the similarity between them.
Second: Check the number of app downloads:
If you want to download the Watsp application, for example, you will find that it has received more than one billion downloads, but if you opened the application page and found that it has been downloaded a million or a little more, here you have to stand and stop downloading because it is fake is no doubt.
Third: user feedback:
You should read user comments; they often comment on the application and its description, and advise you not to take your decision from the first comments for fear that the developer is the one who commented, but moved down the comments or the middle.
Fourth, the developer's official links:
The developer usually inserts his or her own site into the description of the application, so go to their site and see the users' comments on it, and you may want to download the app from their official links to the app for fear of being directed to a similar fake application.
Fifth: The powers required by the application:
The most important thing is that when you download any application you are asked to agree to give the application a set of powers, including making calls, sending messages, access to your camera, photo gallery, contacts or geographic location, and you have to be alert at this step, That the game "Spy" for example need permission to enter the photo gallery, or the camera or make a call, in this case you need to estimate the situation and take the necessary action, and there are also many applications that are called "the original search, or flash light" To the camera, here you should know it whenever you turn on The lamp "flash" the application will be able to see what direction the camera toward him, so the subject of special powers applications must stand then a big pause because of its importance to the safety of users.
