Downloads should be done from reputable sites and not from every link you see, when downloading a software, check out for the accurate logo and spelling. For example in playstore  there's "Bitget" and "Bitget wallet". Where Bitget is the original exchange software and the latter is a scam software.
Or, if possible, just avoid Play Store.  It is littered with so much Malware it is an incredibly high risk to mistakenly download the bad version of a Wallet.

With Android you get the option to download a file and check the Hash of it.  Verifying an installable file to make sure it comes from the real, legitimate Creator of a Wallet is so much better than choosing the comfort of Play Store.
