Are there any Android files management apps that use read and write verify?

[richcooley]

hi. I download videos from online sources, and sometimes copy them to a OTG flash drive so i can view them on my HDTV, but sometimes the files do not copy over correctly. Why? Because my phone is virus infested. Are there any files management apps that turn read and write verify on, to make sure the files are read and written correctly???

Welcome to Android Central! I don't have a direct answer for you, but where are you downloading these videos from? If these are shady sites (and any site that offers free movie or TV downloads that are otherwise supposed to be paid for is by definition shady), then they're also really high risk for malware, which might explain why your phone is infested with viruses.

Which Android device are you using?

Unless you subscribe to YouTube Premium, be aware that 3rd party YT downloaders violate the terms of service (and are therefore also more at risk of containing malware).

Hi
Yeah that's your best bet because the device is vulnerable to security risk since it's outdated for quite some time .
