Although the fact that both Android and iOS are two mature and stable apps, which ensures that, as a general rule, and no more than one, we cannot deny that Google's apple-powered operating system beat Google by one factor: to avoid.
And we are not facing a trivial problem. Yes, Android has many better features than iOS, but the fact that iOS is a more efficient closed system has great benefits. At a time when our online security and privacy should be our top priority, Android still doesn't take it seriously. It's not the first time we've learned that hundreds (or thousands) of apps in the Google Play Store have been removed for being malicious and apparently won't be the last, because new research confirms what almost everyone knew: that Android lousy security
New research confirms that there are still many harmful Android apps
(This study) was conducted by researchers from Ohio University and New York using about 150,000 apps (100,000 in the Google Play Store, 20,000 in Baidu and 30,000 apps previously installed on Samsung devices). This investigation, as reported by BGR, has concluded that at least 13,000 of these 150,000 apps have rear doors which will allow its developers to access information from our device.
You remember this letter that a group of companies sent to Star CEO Google. In it they ask Google for a solution against the large number of problem apps and bloatware that exist on Android, which is a problem looking at this study, seems to have not been resolved yet.
And does Android have a problem. It is not likely that by 2020 there are too many and many apps that have major security problems in Google's store. We're not talking about APKs that users can download from problem sites online, but from the Play Store itself. Should Google imitate Apple in this regard?
Because we cannot deny it. The iOS App Store not only highlights quality in all four corners but We know that by installing the app from that store on our smartphone, passed various filters before publication. Obviously not even iOS users are safe from malware and malware, but you should only see that one part of such apps on one operating system and another recognizes that something is wrong with Android.
Why doesn't Google take action on this issue? The fact that there is a strict control over what is published in your app store has nothing to do with reducing freedom. Not that the user has lost more or less freedom with his or her Android device (something that would not have been worse if he had gained more security and privacy) but just fight malware for Android
Because it is pointless to update our smartphones and accept security enhancements, when we have an enemy in our house.
