    A week later, Sam’s grandfather received a strange message from an unknown
                        number with a link to download the same Glow Draw app. Sam was confused and
                        wondered how the app had his grandfather’s phone number. He felt worried but didn’t

                        talk to anyone about it, hoping the problems with the app would stop on their own.

                        Based on the above case, answer the following questions:
                        1.  What should Sam have done before downloading the app?

                        2.  Why did Sam’s grandfather receive a message from an unknown number?

                      MANAGING APP PERMISSIONS

                      Managing  app  permissions  is  an essential part  of protecting  your  privacy  and
                      ensuring apps only access the information they truly need. By regularly reviewing

                      and adjusting permissions, you can keep control over your data and device security.

                      How to Review Permissions on Your Device

                      Some apps collect your data even when you're not using them or sometimes we click
                      'Allow' without thinking. That's why reviewing permissions regularly is important to

                      keep your phone safe. Let's take a look at how you can manage app permissions
                      safely on your device.

                      You  can also see  what permissions  an app  already  has and change them  at
                      any time.
