    The installation process of any malware on non-jailbroken devices cant be executed without user interaction. You have to accept an enterprise certificate for which a pop-up is asking you if you want to install it on your device. Unless you do that, there is no way a malicious app could be installed. Since you are on iOS9, you even have to go to settings and verify the profile by yourself first since Apple has improved this step in terms of security.

    But yes, you should remove it because those kinds of apps are useless anyways.

    I removed the app that was claiming that the Chinese iPad app is installed on my iphone, however I can find no other evidence that the news app even exists on my device. It's an odd and somewhat complicated occurrence and hopefully iOS 9.1 will remedy the situation once and for all :)

    I use Battery Doctor as well, for memory cleanup (saves me a lot of reboots).
    So @Nekku: no, it's not completely useless ;)

    However, once I ran SystemConsole (to check something completely unrelated, was a lucky coincidence) with BatteryDoctor running:
    I noticed that it constantly tries to send and receive data of rather dubious nature. Unfortunately I can't remember details. But if someone is interested, I can do it again and e.g. drop the logs here, or give a summary.

    ADVISE: If you use BatteryDoctor or similar, ALWAYS run it without network connection.

    Oh, there is an easier way to free up ram without rebooting your device or by using 3rd party apps.
    It's a build-in function of iOS although not many people know about it.
    Hold the power button until the slide to switch off screen appears and then hold the home button a couple seconds until it jumps back to the springboard (homescreen). Voila.

    @Nekku: Do you have any reference/links about that function? I just tried, and it doesn't do anything in iOS 9.0 . Didn't update to 9.0.2 yet, does it only work there?

    For comparison:
    When I use the memoryclean in BatteryDoctor, any game that I still have running in the background basically terminates (gets thrown out of memory, afaik) and starts as if I completely closed it and then started again.

    Well, now here's a damn useful function! I just did it and it works like a charm. I'm on 9.0.2 and it stopped every current function. That's why I freaking love these forums. This was my sole purpose for using Battery doctor in the first place. You would think Apple would make this function known. Thanks Nekku

    Thanks for that. It certainly did work on my 6+ running 9.0.2. Anymore tricks up your sleeve?

    No problem guys :)


    Oh I whish...
    No, this really is the only function I just encountered after years beeing an iOS user and which is pretty much described nowhere. I saw it on reddit once and was quite happy that I didnt miss it.

    I just tried again: Kicking Apps out of memory worked just fine.
    The only difference to BatteryDoctor seems to be that it also doesn't deallocate (not sure if that's the right term) the memory and drops it right back to the OS as "truly free". I'd need to check with a few games where I know that they are a real bitch about memory, but I'm way too tired for that right now.

    Anyways, thanks again!
