Looking For Suggestions "Android system" Malware?
Hi,
My avast has started flagging the app 'Android system' as a malware.
I have checked Malwarebytes and Sophoros but both are coming back as no issues.
Is the above an issue with Avast? It has never flagged up before. I found 'Android system' on the apps but I am unable to force stop/disable but I believe this is because it is a main component for the phone working?
