Android Central Question

Hello sir,
I recently found that sys stasl system app is a virus.

It has the control for : McAfee-GW-Edition,K7GW,EsET-NoD32,McAfee,DrWeb,symantecMobile elnsight,lkarus,Fortinet.

By all those it seems like a trojon type.

If u have some explanation about sys stasl,like
why it's on our phone, installing automatically even after removing with "system app uninstaller tool"
and what is the main purpose of the app, what will happen if we actually remove this system app.

Welcome to Android Central! Which phone do you have? It's hard to find any reliable information on the web about this, but it sounds like some preinstalled system app on Tecno and Infinix phones -- do you have one of those?

It might be related to something called "Magazine Service", which appears to be some preinstalled newsfeed similar to Google Discover. These kinds of things can sometimes be regarded as a threat by antivirus apps for various reasons, like excessive data sharing, or behavior that resembles adware. Whether it's truly malicious is unclear.

I found this YouTube video describing how to remove it, but it's in a language I don't recognize (I believe it's an Indian dialect). There is some text displayed in English, though.
