abstract="The growing popularity of smartphone devices has led to development of increasing numbers of applications which have subsequently become targets for malicious authors. Analysing applications in order to identify malicious ones is a current major concern in information security; an additional problem connected with smart-phone applications is that their many advertising libraries can lead to loss of personal information. In this paper, we relate the current methods of detecting malware on smartphone devices and discuss the problems caused by malware as well as advertising.",
