Topic: What do you think about airdrop that required apps install? - page 2. (Read 720 times)
I bypass such airdropy side. This is a very dubious benefit. For the sake of getting some kopecks, you can infect your device with a virus and lose data.
I wouldn't have done that. I am generally very skeptical about airdrops, almost do not participate in them. Therefore, to install some unknown application I would not.
Because there was a lot of possibility if that app has already inserted by malware that can steal all of our data. This already happened in so many times. So many people have experienced in this case. Just avoid it and then forget it.
You can pick up some virus on your phone. Therefore, I also believe that it is very risky to download some questionable applications. If you still want to try, you should be very careful or try to download it to another phone.

Make sure first if the project was legit and was verified by many users. And if you want to install it in your computer, make sure to activate the antivirus and turn the internet offline to make sure that it is not a virus application for you to be safe from hack.
Once the virus run on the computer, it might capture all data and any sensitive data will be not safe anymore. I always worry about it when I want to participate in an airdrop that requires to install the application, then worries make me stop and cancel to join the airdrop. Definitely a bad idea. Definitely a scam. It is a must not to join in this kind of airdrop. We may never know what lies behind the apps. There might be malwares or spywares included or any kind of modus that can get important information from your device.
It is risky, true. But I would not say that it is definitely a scam
Does somebody have examples of scams or malwares with app wallets 
extremely negative ... airdrop should not carry some kind of application ... I miss these. - risky /
Wekk, airdrops today aren't as they used ti be at first. At first you could earn a lot with justa little effort, like registering the airdrop alone evn without a referral. Today things have changed and downloading the app. Anyways don't forget to read reviews before you download anything. It'll help you kbow much about the app you're downloading.
Hi, everybody. 
I such Airdrop pass by. There are many other Airdrop that are easier to do and do not need to install the application on your phone.

bad way I think it is possible that nothung dangerous in downloading app, but it is too risly to check it up and I just avoid this kind of airdrops

I found a project offering an airdrop but required participants to download and install their mobile app. The app is newly made with only few hundreds download and I don't think I'll ever use it.
Is it too risky?

certainly risky, so you should try to research it and find out
but in my experience, there are many airdrops that do the same method, not all of them are bad there are some good ones. well so you have to research it

Yes, it is risky to download apps for the sake of altcoins. We do not know if the app that you will download is safe to your phone. Based on the number of downloads, I think that app is not a good app to download. Once you download the app, the app might have advertisements. Instead of you earning money, the company/team will earn more than you because of the advertisements.

It is too risky because it may get malware to your devices and it can also get personal information of yours. However, there are airdrop that you need to install app but they are reliable and trustworthy. Before joining airdrop, get a background information about the airdrop manager and the purpose of that coin and other information that will help you to determine whether the airdrop is not risky. Is it too risky?
I'd rather avoid them, I won't install anything from which I don't know anything about, if you install it on your phone you may be prone to information leaks that could go really bad for you.
It seems to me very risky, because you can infect your device with malware. After all, you can not be completely sure that the application is without malware. I would not download the application to a device where I have passwords from wallets and exchanges.
It might be dangerous and it can be a hassle for new users.
But it is the way for a real adoption which again depends on the quality of the product.

I do not advise you to do this. Now, there are many applications that can be spyware. After that you can lose your data and very regret about this
I think that downloading the application on your mobile phone from an unknown manufacturer for the sake of airdrop tokens is too risky. Perhaps this application contains a virus that steals personal data, so I would recommend not to download this application.
