Remove Annoying Ads From Android Apps Using Norton Spot Ad Beta
Posted by Badri Tek on 09:04 with No comments
Now a days most of the people are not generous enough to donate even the least amount of money to app developers who put their heart in soul in creating something useful for us. This is quite unfortunate for app developers which forces them to incorporate adware into their applications to generate some extra revenue.
I completely support the ads considering they only come in free applications but honestly speaking, sometimes developers do add more than necessary ads that too at inconvenient locations of the interface. This becomes annoying for users and therefore we do need to have a solution to this.
Norton is out with something interesting for android users, so let us take a look at it..
Norton, one of the leading antivirus developers has come up with an ad scanner and detector app for Android OS that effectively tracks applications and advertisement networks who try to access our personal information. It is an ad detector and reporting tool that scans your Android device for vulnerable apps, sort them as per the level of harm they could do and also take the appropriate action henceforth.
You may be able to find out the apps that contain plenty of adware without the Norton Spot ad, but finding out which ad network is hosting these ads is a really tough job. And for such difficult talks we now have this amazing app from Norton.
With minimal buttons and a clean interface the Norton Spot Ad app is extremely simple to use. All you have to do is launch the app and hit the Spot Them button. Once the app completes the scan it will produce a list of applications which are potent enough to harm your device. The information regarding each app will not only tell you which apps are harmful but also the extent to which they can trouble you.
As you can see in the images above, after the scan you will have two section: Behaviors and Apps. The Apps section will have all the apps containing adware while the behavior section will list the possible ways in which the adware could annoy you. As you see in the second image above aps could collect your phone number, add useless icons on your homescreen, send SMS after clicking on adds, collect location, collect SIM card info and do a lot more harm to you and your device.
Also if you tap on an app from the App list, you will be presented with additional info including the ad networks it supports. From the same screen you could also uninstall the application if you find it too threatening.
Gladly it is free for Android users and is available on the Google Play Store.
