WHAT IS MOBILE ADWARE (MADWARE)?
Madware, the term that’s been adopted for the Mobile Adware category, refers to ad networks that subject users to over-aggressive advertising on their mobile devices.
Due to the open nature of the Android ecosystem, spammy apps are on the rise. Without a madware blocker installed on your device, they can override your personal settings, collect your personal information, and slow down your phone. Your mobile device is a computer, and can be vulnerable in the same manner as a desktop.
Some examples of madware behaviors:
Collects your device’s phone number
Collects location information
Displays ads on your notification bar
Adds icons or shortcuts to device screen
Modifies your web browser bookmarks
Replaces your dial tone with an audio ad
Sends you ads through text messages
Changes your web browser homepage
Deliberately hides from ad detectors (advertising module obfuscation)
A trustworthy app will generally adhere to the following guidelines:
The user experience is consistent with in-app advertising. Unfortunately, some apps aggressively bombard users with ads and alerts that can be potentially annoying.
There is clear separation between content and advertising. Some app developers have been known to disguise alerts, shortcuts, bookmarks, and icons as default settings without the user’s consent.
Freedom to navigate the app without walls. Forcing the user to click on ads or submit personal information in order to fully use the app provides a poor user experience.
A private web browsing experience. In-app ads should not interfere with third party ads and websites.
An honest product description. Deceptive app developers have provided inaccurate statements and claims to increase downloads.
Only install an app if you trust the app’s developer. This includes current app versions and updates. Use a madware killer or stopper to help you evaluate an app’s trustworthiness.
