Android phones and tablets can behave erratically from time to time, especially as the amount of junk installed on them piles up. Sometimes bad behaviour can be attributed to a virus or other malware, and it can be difficult to tell what's to blame.
Nine times out of 10 it won't be a virus causing your device to act up. They do exist, but they are rare, and are usually installed exclusively via dodgy apps. You'll find few of these if you stick to the secure confines of the Google Play store.
The most common symptom presented to us as evidence of a virus is dodgy pop-ups in the browser. Usually these can be removed simply by clearing the browser's cache.
Go to Settings > Apps > Chrome > Storage > Clear Cache. Within Chrome itself hit the three dots icon at the top right and choose Settings > Privacy > Clear Browsing Data, then tick all the options and choose Clear Data.
If your device is misbehaving in another way, the best way to rid it of whatever is causing the issue is a factory reset, which can be achieved via Settings > System > Reset Options > Erase all data (it might look a little different on some phones).
But this is not an attractive solution when you have it set up just how you want it, so you should be careful to ensure you back up anything important before you begin.
If you're pretty sure you know what's causing the trouble - perhaps it all kicked off after you installed an app that you're not sure is 100 percent trustworthy - then you can sometimes fix the problem just by removing that specific app.
Uninstalling an app can be difficult if it's given itself administrator rights, however, but following the steps we outline below you should be able to force it out. We'll explain how to put your Android phone or tablet in Safe mode, remove the administrator rights, and then uninstall the app.
Supposing you've done all the above and your device is still slow, consider that it may be a case of old age or a new software update that doesn't play nicely slowing things down. Check out our guide on how to speed up Android.
To prevent further threats, you might also want to install an antivirus app for your phone or tablet. You'll find our favourites in our round-up of the best mobile antivirus. Our top pick is Bitdefender.
If you're convinced that malware is at large, read on for instructions on removing it from your device.
