I have a problem with my phone Samsung Galaxy s6 , there some apps keep annoying as they automatically get installed themselves despite of Uninstalling them several times. They just contain some adds, and normally they interfere whatever you are doing

There are several reasons this can happen.

Mostly, it is caused by other things that you have installed or used before this, one or more of them has installed malware on your device and that malware keeps re-installing apps when you remove them. You need to find out what the malware is and remove the malware.
