Hey all,

Anyone have this pop up after each phone call I receive.
Here is the recent pop up from screens sh...
How I can disable it if there is option? Looks like some stupid ad each time.

Each time different ad, just another missed call

I don't remember that I have installed anything for a month or more and this started just two days ago. Any way to narrow it down tips?

re:

Check the recently updated apps in the play store.

Yup. Some apps sneak crap like this into updates.

Just go to the apps and delete any app you dont recall downloading. Especially "cleaners"
You must have watched some p*rn and got an ad that downloaded that app

What was the name of the app? This could be helpful if others with the same issue look at this thread

re:

Sounds like it was a previously helpful app, that added ad monetization. Some apps will do this in order to keep them "free" Sometimes you can get a paid version that doesn't have the ads, BUT If you can live without the service the app provides, keep it gone!

It's sms backup and restore by Synctech


EDIT: He fixed his problem by removing the above app! -pk

Is it me or does it look like the ad is asking you to "Tap here to fill entire screen"?

I had a very similar thing happen months ago and cannot recall the app name. Oh I think it was GoSMSpro.
