Which One Is More Secure: Android or iOS?

Which One Is More Secure: Android or iOS?

https://www.yahoo.com/tech/which-one...375430379.html

Cliff Notes...

The winner: iOS
Android is making progress fixing security bugs promptly (especially on Nexus devices), but Apple has been doing it longer and trying hard to make security patches and stable OS updates work on all its products.

The winner: iOS
Both Apple and Google are diligent in policing the software available in their stores, but Apple has traditionally been more thorough about it and about making it hard to shop elsewhere.

The winner: iOS
Apple?s been reining in apps since the beginning, while Android is playing catch-up.

The bottom line: The mobile security situation is looking up. First, mobiles are still much less likely than computers to get attacked. Second, Android is finally catching up to the kinds of strict security measures that Apple has had for years. But it?s not there yet. So for the utmost in safety, Apple gadgets remain the best choices.
