Android users need to uninstall these apps ASAP as they are a security risk

Google will soon notify Android users when an app they installed has lost developer support. Currently, users only receive alerts from Play Protect for significant security threats or potentially harmful apps. The only way to discover if an app has been delisted is through external sources or by trying to install it on a new device. Recent findings in the Play Store indicate that Google is preparing to inform users when apps have been removed from the Play Store and will no longer receive updates. Abandoned apps pose significant security risks, as they may contain vulnerabilities that can be exploited by malicious actors. Google's new notifications aim to encourage users to uninstall unsupported apps to protect their personal data.
