Time flies, the new year's seven-day holiday in the blink of an eye has passed, I don't know if friends have eaten anything delicious in the New Year, play something different.
Coincidentally, this time I also went back to my hometown, but unlike many friends, most of the time I was in a state of home isolation... In other words, there is not much difference between this home and no return.
It is better to catch up well than to catch up with it. Going back to this trip actually made me find the cattiness in my parents' mobile phones.
Don't look at it, don't know, look at it and be shocked! Nowadays, the mobile phones of middle-aged and elderly people have become a hotbed for a new generation of "App moths", and countless rogue software and advertising pop-ups fill their mobile phones. Who would have thought that in 2022, parents would still be plagued by this moth.
60-year-old man's mobile phone becomes a "cheating simulator"
Some time ago, a video on Station B went viral, and the central idea of the whole video was only one: "Dad said that his mobile phone has a 🤏🏻 billion point cards."
According to the owner of Up in the video, his father told him that his phone had "a little" card when he returned home, so he planned to help his father clean up the phone.
But unexpectedly, just open the phone there was an unexpected situation, after unlocking the phone is not the phone desktop, but one after another "slide unlock".
When he tried his best to enter the desktop, a scene that surprised him even more appeared, and on the desktop was one "rogue software" that he had never seen before, several WIFI assistants, and a large number of "mobile phone butlers".
"If you think about my dad, a middle-aged and 60-year-old man in the countryside, he is facing this kind of mobile phone, can he operate it, can he react to it, no wonder he told me that it was a bit stuck." Looking back on his tone now, it should be a little helpless, a little helpless, and a little aggrieved, maybe it has been tortured for a long time, you said that it is easy for middle-aged and elderly people to use a mobile phone, I am a twenty-year-old boy who now has some scalp tingling...", The Lord Up said in the video.
Up the main father's mobile phone has such a situation, the family does not understand the mobile phone people even think that it is not to see something that should not be seen, so that the mobile phone is so stuck. This extended suspicion makes the caton on the mobile phone affect the user's wind evaluation.
Similar situations do not only appear in the home of the Up owner, I can also find this situation in my parents' mobile phones, some inexplicable applications will always appear quietly in the mobile phone, every time I check my parents' mobile phones, I always have to help them remove a few "psoriasis of the new century".
Many friends think that as long as the elderly machine is bought well enough and expensive enough, it can avoid this problem to a certain extent, if you give them a good mobile phone, at least after the pop-up advertisement, you can also ensure the smooth use of the mobile phone.
So the question is, as they say, can spending money really solve this kind of problem?
A mobile phone, a group of "housekeepers"
Some friends may feel that the reason for the stuttering and pop-up window on the one hand is that it is in the body of the mobile phone, generally speaking, the mobile phone of the elderly is generally "the elderly machine", and the performance is not good, if you give them a better performance of the hand will not have a different result.
In order to verify this, we found an idle iQOO Neo5S, this phone uses Snapdragon 888 processor, has a relatively good performance in performance, want to understand this phone can click to view the previous article: "Less than 3000 yuan iQOO Neo5S, will become the next "real incense machine"?"
Then we will simulate the state of an old man this time, all the pop-up ads of this mobile phone, clean up the application prompted by the advertisement all download, for the middle-aged and elderly people with weak discrimination ability, this kind of exaggerated advertising, such as "free Internet, super cleaning", there is almost no resistance.
It is worth mentioning that the initial starting point of all of this was just a search for "free WIFI" in the app store. However, within ten minutes of opening the app, there were already five or six apps on our phones under the banner of free trial WiFi.
Yes, the number of ads in these apps is so large that it even makes people think that they have opened a mobile phone that can be mLM... With a little, you will download the app by default in the background, and if the app permission management is not perfect for the phone, you can even perform a silent installation in the background.
Just installed these applications, I have already felt the strength of the mobile phone caton, when I unlocked the phone, the ads mushroomed like mushrooms, one by one jumped out, the first one has not had time to close, the second has already jumped out.
There are also some software will automatically pop out a pop-up window in the background, which says "garbage cleaning", this kind of pop-up window does not even have a close button, and the return to the main interface can not be closed, and can only be pressed to close after passively watching the animation, and then use the mobile phone.
Among these software, there are even a few "invisible applications", such as the "one-click WIFI king" we downloaded, there is no serious icon, only a transparent icon occupies a space, so that it is not to say that it is a parent, even if we are easy to be deceived.
This invisible software clicks, will directly enter the phone's setting interface, and does not provide other functions, but it is precisely because of this, it is more frightening, just imagine a transparent application what function is not, the meaning of being installed is to secretly steal all kinds of information from the mobile phone in the background, these in case you have the right to read mobile phone TEXT messages, the stolen money is only a matter of minutes.
Some of these application pop-ups also have special permissions, such as these software I downloaded, some of them have the permission to prohibit screenshots, so that even if parents want to give their children a screenshot and ask what is going on, their children can't do anything.
It seems that after the market elimination, these individual applications have the appearance of "Cup King" and have various "defense mechanisms".
As I downloaded more, I found that some things weren't that simple to solve.
These applications, can provide a close button for your ads, have been very "conscience", there is a large number of applications even to close the pop-up window is not provided, if you want to use the phone normally, then you can only obediently read the ads, this is still us, know to find a way to close, if it is a parent, that do not know how many ads to watch.
There are also some applications that directly simulate a lock screen or desktop interface, basically every time you unlock the phone will appear once, as long as you enter this page, congratulations, open the door to a new world, if you see the number of ads is not enough, even quit is a problem.
Many of these software advertisements are under the banner of cleaning up mobile phones, mobile phone housekeepers, etc., quoting a comment from a netizen: "My family has two rooms and one living room, and there are 6 housekeepers."
When operating this mobile phone, the fever of the whole mobile phone has been very serious, even if it is put aside, the advertisement will automatically pop up, so that the mobile phone has been in a high load state, so that the power consumption of this mobile phone has increased significantly. This is not the end, the mobile phone fever has given a push reason for these spam ads: "A lot of mobile phone heat caton, try XX mobile phone butler!" ”。
Another endless cycle.
In the end, I only downloaded more than 20 "rogue software", and there are several apps with stealth functions, and the mobile phone has popped up frequently, which seriously affects the normal use of the software to continue to download.
Originally, I still wanted to download 100 "rogue software" to show everyone the effect, but I did not expect that "the first emperor started a business and the middle road collapsed." You know, this is the flagship mobile phone equipped with the Snapdragon 888 processor, not to mention the parents' mobile phone.
Needless to say, I'm going to restore the phone, and the phone has begun to "burn"...
From trying to restore the factory, I only took half a day, but who would have thought that in the beginning I just downloaded a software that rubbed wifi?
Don't let your parents' phones become "petri dishes" for these garbage
If you return home, find your parents' mobile phone is the same, here I give you a little trick, want to completely delete these applications is not easy, if forcibly deleted, you can only compare with these advertising pop-ups hand speed, see if it is to uninstall it first, or it will first interrupt you, let you re-operate, this experience is more exciting than some games, it is simply the App version of the "life and death speed", "fast and furious".
This little trick is to disconnect the network, we first turn on the airplane mode of the mobile phone, and then delete these applications one by one, so that there will be no various pop-ups to interrupt the operation.
In the choice of elderly machines, I give priority to recommending iOS systems, followed by Huawei, Xiaomi, and finally OV and other manufacturers' mobile phone systems. The iOS system is relatively closed, there will be no various rogue software, more suitable for the elderly to use; and Huawei's Harmony OS and Xiaomi's MIUI have a pure mode, which can also avoid the situation of parents randomly installing software.
As for other phones, I recommend turning on "Turn off unknown sources" on, it's better to talk than nothing.
However, there is a more effective way than choosing a mobile phone, that is, often communicate with parents, do not care more about parents, when buying a new mobile phone for parents, make good software in advance, do a good job of settings, and teach it tirelessly, so that parents can better enjoy the fun brought by technology, but also enhance the feelings between parents and children. That being said, it's a clichéd topic, but there are still only a few people who really do it.
In fact, at present, the smart phones we buy for parents are generally large screens and sex can use such mobile phones, but unfortunately these mobile phones are not specially optimized for use scenarios, and such mobile phones are preferentially sold to young people rather than the elderly. In my opinion, mobile phones such as "elderly machines" can be sold separately, and the permission management is set more stringently, such as only some commonly used software can apply for partial permissions, etc., and even a separate app store.
Finally, I still recommend that these application download platforms, be more tired of reviewing, don't always let such applications flow into the market, strengthen supervision, and don't let our parents' mobile phones become the "Petri dishes" of these garbage.
