Gizmoquip apps and Play Store safety
|
| I’ve noticed some Gizmoquip apps are flagged by antivirus software as \"spyware.\" Is this just a false positive due to the nature of parental monitoring, or is there a security risk I should be aware of? |

Re: Gizmoquip apps and Play Store safety

| Gizmoquip apps, such as SMS Tracker, are often flagged by antivirus software as \"spyware\" due to their deep system permissions. Because these apps monitor call logs, texts, and GPS, their behavior mimics that of malicious \"stalkerware.\" This is typically a false positive intended to alert users that a hidden monitoring tool is active. However, if you downloaded the app from an official source and installed it yourself, it is generally safe. You can check the website for specific white-listing instructions. To ensure maximum safety, always verify that your data is encrypted during transmission. |
