The deleted applications were potentially dangerous and had a 'device draining
backdoor'.Thus, the battery of such devices drained faster than usual after the user has installed any of the app. The app uses a computer based software in its pop up adds, which
automatically clicks on the adds without the user clicking it. This
costs the advertiser and also users data is being stolen.
