Recently, Google has removed 38 popular apps from the Play Store in which all of them were camera-centric apps. For new users, these malware apps won’t be available for download from the Play Store, but the 2 crore users who have already downloaded them need to make sure they uninstall the apps from their phones to avoid any security malfunctions.
According to the WhiteOps security researchers, the apps will flood users with unwanted ads and send them to sites without ever clicking on a link. It should also be noted that in some cases, the deletion of these apps once downloaded by users was almost “impossible”.

So, in order to find and uninstall these apps — Open Settings, then head over to Apps and find these apps. If not found with the exact name, then try to find apps with package name or try to find apps with no name. As sometimes these apps don’t show any name, there is just white icon of that app.
Below is the list of all 49 malware camera apps along with package name and number of installs on play store:
