The app may have malware?

I have two apps one is https://apps.apple.com/sb/app/bnstopwatch/id1082090048

It is called BNStopwatch and other app is called clocks.

The Clocks: Alarm, World Clock App - App Store

Download The Clocks: Alarm, World Clock by Meanterm Inc. on the App Store. See screenshots, ratings and reviews, user tips, and more games like The Clocks:…

Well both apps are popular apps they have it for iPhone, iPad, Mac, and android.

For some reason now the apps started pushing lots and lots of ads now and it seems like app is malware now.

Anyone else here having this problem?

What you’re seeing is more than likely an ad to get you to buy software.

If the ads are being shown in the apps themselves then it is an app issue.

1. Check to see if the app has an option to disable ads.
2. Looking at the clocks app there are a number of red flags:

Not enough reviews for a review summary
Developer hasn't disclosed to Apple privacy and data policies

1. I would delete it.
2. Generally only install apps that have good review summaries, after reading the reviews
3. Don't install anything that doesn't declare that it follows Apples' data and privacy policies

I wonder if others here have these two apps and are getting ads?

You're getting ads within the app? I assume that's just the developer trying to earn money?

I was not getting ads before.

You see ads only if you are using apps AND you have network connection
