Android App wiping users memory

News - By: pdaBlast! Staff - January 27, 2009


A new Android app called MemoryUp Personal appears to be causing problems for several G1 users. The comments section of the Android App Market includes claims by several users that the app is destroying their memory, and is a "scam."

The app’s description says, “MemoryUp is a handy memory optimizer tool that will keep your Android smartphone running faster and efficiently. It is the lite edition of MemoryUp Professional, which can extraordinaryily increase you cell phone performance by making more memory available for both you applications and the mobile system.”

Users who downloaded the app claim the app installed adware, froze their devices, and deleted all their memory. Be careful when using MemoryUp.
