Possible malware called "rooms"

A

AC Question

Hi all, I did Google search extensively but can't find anything wondering if anyone here knows about an app called "Rooms" that automatically installs and everytime I uninstall it then it just automatically shows up again.

The same app just appeared on my Galaxy s7 too. I have no idea what it is and it immediately reappears when I uninstall. Downloaded a bunch of virus and malware apps and none picked it up. I did notice that the app appeared the same time the oculus store auto updated. Not sure if it's tied to that?

Also discovered this today, with same behavior - something reinstall "Rooms" immediately after uninstall. That "something" appears to be Oculus.

Force stopping "Oculus" and "Oculus Arcade" was enough to allow uninstall without reinstall , and it remains uninstalled even after phone restart. BUT, as soon as Oculus is started (it is enough to just start Oculus store, no need to connect GearVR), it again reinstall that app.

BTW, did anyone start this app? What does it actually do?
