Yes, I encountered malware once! My phone slowed down and showed strange ads. I ran a malware scan, deleted suspicious apps, and updated my software. Always use trusted apps and maintain backups!

I once faced a malware incident on my mobile device. I tackled it by booting into safe mode, running an antivirus scan to remove the threat, and changing all my account passwords afterward. The experience was stressful but ultimately reinforced my commitment to better mobile security practices.
