A couple of years ago, Mobdro was one of the most popular applications to watch television from our smartphone or tablet, an application that satisfied the most demanded needs of any mobile user. This application allowed us to access any TV channel in the world, including payment channels, so it was a matter of time before it disappeared.
However, as the application became popular, it became a malware source that performed background processes on mobile devices that the user had not authorized. This is one of the problems associated with installing applications from any web page without knowing its origin.
This does not mean that we cannot install applications from outside the Play Store, quite the contrary. Outside the Play Store we can find great apps like NewPipe an alternative to YouTube that all Android users should have installed on their device, since it offers us all the functions that only users who pay for YouTube Premium have.
NewPipe can be download from the GitHub website, which also contains the application code, so that any user with adequate knowledge can check how the application does what it says and does not hide any type of malware inside or performs data robot actions as Mobpro did at the time.
What happened to Mobdro?
At the beginning of 2021, the Mobpro application stopped working together with its website, so the only way disappeared official to be able to download this application, so you do not need to keep looking, since if you find the application to download on a website, it is most likely that be a sinkhole for viruses, malware and others an application that also will not work since this platform is no longer in operation.
Mobpro had become one of the most popular IPTV list services not only in Spain but also throughout the world, but due to different complaints for copyright infringement, the entire Mobdro infrastructure was dismantled through a coordinated operation by Central Cybercrime Unit of the National Police and the Europool.
