The application in question is clearly malware, therefore it is best to remove it. A factory reset can remove malware, but doing something drastic like that is usually not a first step. Additionally, C and D won't help with removing malware.

It is quite clear that the issue is the application they just installed, so first thing should be to just uninstall it, though depending on the app, you might still do more, but the question was what to do FIRST.

She may actually have viruses. The software seems to be using more data. A poor program isnt always malware so we cannot assume this yet. As it asks what should you do FIRST.

Yeah, but she is also receiving security warnings. What else could it be besides malware?
