Cyber Safety Worksheet: Safe Downloads
Stay safe (Official, updated, protected): Install from the official app store or a trusted site, and ask a parent first. Check permissions: does the app need it to do its job? A torch app reading messages is a warning sign. Install updates soon; keep antivirus on; never open unknown attachments or tap “your phone has viruses” pop-ups.
