Denis Koskov, Director General of the Information and Analysis Agency “Telecom Daily”, explained that some smartphone malfunctions are among the main signs of the presence of spyware in the phone.

According to him, draining the battery and restarting at a time when the phone is not being used are evidence of someone spying on the smartphone, noting that confirmation of this can be done by checking the smartphone by going to the list of installed programs.

“If you notice that the phone does not turn off for a long time before disconnecting, it is likely that it is looking for a source to which information can be transmitted. This can also be the basis for scanning your smartphone for malware,” Koskov said.

The expert advised installing an antivirus licensed with the function of detecting spyware on the smartphone, pointing out that these programs can be found in application stores.
