How Android's latest security feature helps you get rid of malware

A new security feature for Android 7.1 (Nougat) makes it easier for users to uninstall malware.

Malicious Android software often actively prevents the user from closing it, making it impossible to uninstall. 

That's why Google has introduced a special app-closing mechanism in its Android version Nougat (7.1) to protect against such malware, as the developer community "xda developers" reports.
