NEW DELHI: Rogue applications are a pain for Android users and Google is trying hard to protect the users. The search giant has quietly introduced a new 'panic mode' for Android users which will protect them from such apps and malware.

'Panic mode' is being introduced to give guaranteed protection from rogue applications. The panic mode works in the background and helps the user from getting out of any malicious app by bringing them back on the home screen. The mode works when the user taps on the back button regularly without any interval. Android then identifies that action and overrides the application and takes the user back to the home screen, where they can uninstall the app.
