Google's Play Store is a home for many applications that make our telephones valuable from various perspectives. Also, despite the fact that Google is putting forth a valiant effort to ensure there aren't any destructive applications on its application showcase, some definitely sneak past.

Fortunately, Google isn't the main organization that is keeping watch for underhanded applications. Cybersecurity organization Evina is additionally scanning and testing applications for any malware that may be sneaking inside and as of late posted a rundown of 25 applications that were taking clients' Facebook certifications. The applications have since been expelled from Google's Play Store, yet on the off chance that you happen to have any on your gadget, it's an ideal opportunity to erase them.

The rundown (included underneath) contains applications with uncontrollably extraordinary usefulness: from games to document directors to step counters and even an electric lamp application. Consolidated, they've piled on more than 2 million downloads and they all contained the equivalent malevolent code.

The way the malware works is by trusting that the client will dispatch an application that is made by Facebook. At that point, it rapidly opens another program tab with a phony Facebook login page and shows it on head of the application that was at first propelled. Clients would then place in their Facebook login subtleties and the malware would duplicate them and send them to its assigned server.

This situation isn't a malware, that's how they make money all browsers track your internet activity, your cookies, cache etc give enough information to the browser that helps it determine the best adverts that'll generate leads to their paying customers.
If you search about PlayStation 5 for example, you'll start getting ads related to gaming,
People that search porn without blocking the browser from following their internet activities end up having porn or sex related adverts following them everywhere.

chrome use the details to send ads to you, while the listed apps most likely sell the infos.

I'm not a mobile expert so I don't know what to look for in apps but the basic actions they take.
This question would be best suited for google.
As you've read google doesn't actually handle this things they contract it to a cyber security firm to check the codes of each app and only when those firms find an issue that google bans the app.
But in the surface I'll just advice you download through google play, all those apps that pop up adverts unnecessarily or ask you to login outside of the main applications interface or domain.

And also apps that when installed ask for permissions to access data they don't need.
Eg i download a calculator app and it asks me for access into my gallery that is a red flag cos the calculator doesn't need a gallery to work. Well except it's a calculator that serves other purposes like the ones local yahoo boys use to hide their files.
It takes special people to see what really goes on inside the app.

For a better understanding to help yourself have an overall idea of protecting yourself online from falling for things like this on web or mobile, a crash course on cyber security would help.

Google can't track you without your permission, it's on default on their browsers to track you.
But if you off your location on your phone or disable your browser from tracking your activities it can't do anything.
In such cases your ISP is the culprit.
