Which Apps Google Does Not Want You To Use?
Google said to use its Google Pay by closing all the apps on the screen during their transactions. The company also warned to avoid using screen-sharing apps that allow users to share the device's screen with others. The screen-sharing, whether used on devices like smartphones, tablets, or even computers, takes control of the screen and can access the smartphone or device. Some popular screen-sharing apps are TeamViewer, AnyDesk, and Screen Share.
Why You Should Not Use Screen-Sharing Apps:
Screen-sharing apps take control of your behalf and interact with your screen. The fraudsters can use such apps to remotely control your device's screen and make transactions from your account. They can easily access the ATM, debit card and credit card details added to your device. With these screen-sharing apps, they can easily check the OTP on the device to validate the transactions they make. 'We Are So Back': Greg Brockman Shares Selfie With Staff as He Returns to OpenAI.

If you use the screen-sharing apps regularly, you must ensure that the app stays closed while using the Google Pay application.
