Android Central Question

Dear All,

I have observed recently in my mobile, a job "user: dobule_app" is running in the background and it looks weird because when i search on internet, i could not find anything related to this. Also, i tried to stop that but unable to do so.

Can anyone suggest me what is that for?

Thank you.

Regards.
Pradip Gupta

I think that's the reason. I still can't find any definitive information on the web, but I strongly suspect the engineers misspelled "DOUBLE_APP" when they created this feature.

That screenshot the member posted looks like it's the details from the Data Usage menu (showing foreground and background usage).
It's possible, yes. I've seen a thread where users were wondering if the Dobule_app was related to a process with UID '-5' that showed in other stats, which is hotspot. I was wondering if this was the case here.

Re: Data consumption by app

Yep, Vivo is mentioned more than once in that other thread. I'm still convinced it has to do with some double app feature (i.e., being able to clone certain apps like social media in order to log into more than one account), and the Vivo engineers simply misspelled "double."

PLEASE, ANYONE WHO KNOW something about this stuff, tell us.
Is this a virus or malware or anything else?
