Hey everyone, I recently tried downloading a casino app that popped up in a random ad, and I got a bit nervous about whether it was legit or a scam. The interface looked okay, but I noticed some weird permission requests asking for access to my contacts and files, which felt unnecessary. Has anyone had a similar experience? How do you usually make sure an app is actually safe before installing it on your phone? Id love to hear some real tips.

Oh yeah, Ive been there too! I usually stick to apps listed on official pages or verified app stores, and I also check if the developer info looks professional. One trick that works for me is visiting a trusted site that reviews apps before downloadinglike this https://jeetbuzztop.com/app-download link I often check. It gives a quick breakdown of the app, updates, and ratings. Also, I never accept apps that want unnecessary permissions or dont have a history of updatesits a red flag.
