Hello, I'm not sure if my title is clear

Since today, I've been having a little problem with my Oppo A53S, I occasionally receive ads on my phone, and they appear as an application. They come out of nowhere, on any app (even my gallery)

A virus? I haven't downloaded anything today...

Thank you to those who can shed some light on this

Sincerely

    Hello,

    Check the apps installed on your phone. Go to Settings > App Management > App List and review the applications. Uninstall those you do not recognize or that seem suspicious.

    You can also run a malware scan with Malwarebytes to check for the presence of malicious apps.
