Can the Samsung pick up a virus and how can I remove it?

A

AC Question

While playing Words my Samsung 5 had a popup indicating I have a trojan virus on my phone and asked if I wanted to remove it. I don't recall if I said yes before shutting the phone off. Does the phone have auto virus protection and what should I do now?

There is some built-in virus protection in Android, but you can install antivirus apps from the Play Store if you wish.
