THESE 5 PRACTICES CAN HARM YOUR PHONE | VIRUS ATTACKS !!!

In the present world, we can leave without a toothbrush but its quite difficult to live without a phone. Yes, according to a research, there are 6.8 billion people on this planet and from these around 4 billion people use mobile, but you will be shocked to know that only 3.8 billion people use a toothbrush. Well, I know you have not come here to read the advantages of a mobile phone because we all know them.

Although we use the phone with lots of care, we often do such things that can cause severe harm to our handset. Here I have listed the 5 most common mistakes that we often do which has a bad impact on our phone. 

• The first and one of the most commonly made mistake is downloading movies and games from unsafe websites. We all love to watch movies and play games, and for this, we download them from the internet. If we talk about games, then instead of downloading certain games form the play store, we often jump to the third party sources where we get apps and games at zero price whereas, the same application or game is having a fixed price in play store. Just because we are getting the app or game free on the third party source, we download it from there, being completely unknown from the effects it may cause. Yes, downloading apps and games from third party sources may have severe effects on your device. When you visit such websites you may come across certain pop-up ads and pop-up websites that continuously arrive whenever you click on any link on that website. These pop-up websites may contain malicious files that can harm your phone, hang it or may have other effects. The apps downloaded from these unsafe websites might look and perform similar to the original one, but in the background it can have severe effects like tracking your device, monitoring your activities you perform on your phone and sometimes remote controlling your device.

         This same thing goes for the websites from where you download movies.           Therefore it is suggested to download any application or games from                 playstore (for android) and not from third party sources. Similarly                     download movies only from official and verified websites.

• The second thing we often do is downloading apps like the one which states that  it will boost your phone's memory, increase your RAM, protect your phone and other useless things. We do not understand that in reality, our phone does not require these apps and downloading them is just a waste of your phone's memory and storage. Also sometimes these applications come with lots of pop-up ads that continuously irritate the user. But most of the people think that these applications are going to boost their phone's memory, speed up its performance and what not.
  
  

• The third and one of the most done common mistakes is charging the phone with random chargers and not by the charger provided with the phone. Well, we all have done this at least once with our phone. The reason can be anything, maybe you misplaced your charger or forgot it at your home or you damaged it, but whatever may be the reason, doing this is not good for your phone. However, doing this for once or twice is absolutely fine but if this thing is continued then it may affect the battery of your phone and reduce the phone's battery capacity.

• Nowadays phones without internet often feel useless to us. We are being addicted to the internet and hence we always want internet or WiFi. Keeping this in mind lots of places including shops, Shopping Malls, Railway and Metro stations, etc. provide a free WiFi connection. And we connect to those free WiFi connections and enjoy free internet services. But have you ever thought that this can often be very harmful? Yes, connecting to random WiFi networks is very harmful; you may face lots of problems because you never know which WiFi network can hack your phone. There is a high chance of your phone being hacked if you are connected to a random unsafe WiFi network. It's better to use your own cellular data in public places, instead of jumping into an unknown WiFi connection. Although if you connect to unknown networks, it's better not to do net banking on your phone.

• In the present world, the biggest problem in the life of a phone user is low battery status. We all want to keep our phone 100% charged. If you really want to keep your phone charged then your must not allow your phone heat up and for this, you must not use your phone heavily and this will allow you to use your phone for a long time without sticking to the charger.

So these were the Five most common mistakes we often do while using our phone. Hope you liked the content, and if you did, then don't forget to share this with your friends and why not make them too realize the common mistakes that we do with our phone.
