As we all know, the mainstream mobile phone systems on the market are iOS and Android.
The two systems have excellent results in their respective fields, but also have their own advantages and disadvantages.
This has also led to the fact that the friends of the two camps have never stopped discussing “ Which system is better . ”
Especially when the two major systems take turns to upgrade the major versions every year, there is a wave of passion online.
Even, recently, even Apple CEO Cook came out to start a group in person: “ The number of malware on Android is 47 times that of iOS.”
Shrimp also got pig’s heart, he explained it like this:” Because we have only one app store for iOS, all apps will be strictly reviewed before they are released. “.
I know the truth, but Cook suddenly came and started a group, which is really not very good8.
After all, the routes taken by the two mobile phone systems are completely different. Cook’s remarks are completely using the advantages of his own iOS to poke the shortcomings of Android.
Xiaolei has always been fair and just, and the App ecology of the two major systems is better or worse. I believe everyone will have a good idea after reading this article. There are more Android rogue apps than iOS?The reason is complicated It is true that Android has more rogue and malicious applications than iOS. But this is only a fact that can be seen on the surface, and the reason is quite complicated and it is worthy of our in-depth understanding. Needless to say, the popularity of iOS in the mobile phone circle is self-evident. Even if it is a minor update, it can still be posted on Weibo’s hot search. Netizens are discussing new gameplay skills for a while. Android is a bit miserable. Google officially released Android 12 at the I/O 2021 conference some time ago. A major version update, as a result, there are very few friends who follow, and only a few geeks are willing to pick up the Pixel upgrade experience in their hands. This also leads to a small problem. Many small partners think that iOS has already won a big victory, and Android is doing its best. But in fact, Android’s global market share is as high as 72.72%, while iOS only has 26.46%. That is to say, 7 out of every ten smart phones are Android devices. Pay more attention to what phones your friends use to know the general situation. Some small partners may be confused. Who has more rogue applications and what does it have to do with market share? Don’t worry, everyone continues to listen to Xiao Lei. The high market share of Android does not mean that it is better than iOS, just because it is mature enough and has open source and flexible features, manufacturers and developers are willing to fiddle with Android. With the market share already taking the lead, the influx of developers will only increase, and accordingly, the number of Android applications will continue to increase. Especially in the Asia-Pacific region, developers will give priority to developing Android apps. Xiaolei believes that this should be related to the increasing market share of domestic mobile phone manufacturers. Let’s take a look at the detailed data. The following is the statistics of the number of applications in each application store by the well-known data agency statista. As of the first quarter of 2021, Google’s Google Play store has 3.48 million apps for users to download and use. The App Store, an old rival, has 2.22 million apps. Although App will fluctuate with the official review, Google Play has significantly more Android apps than App Store. This is just the number of apps in an app market on Google Play. Due to the open source of Android, in addition to the official Google Play, there are many third-party application distribution channels on the market, and the fragmentation is very serious. For example, there are about 460,000 Android apps in the Amazon App Store. The domestic situation is even more complicated. Different brands of mobile phones have their own application stores, which is dazzling. Even the digital community + application market Kuan has many excellent niche apps. Not counting the APKs developed by small developers and privately distributed to some users. Guo Guo is quite special here. After all, it is a closed ecology. Developers can only submit apps to the App Store for review. The number of apps in the App Store is about this number, and there won’t be too many differences. So, one of the reasons why Android rogue apps are better than iOS is that the app base is larger. According to Cook’s logic, there are dozens of times more rogue malicious apps on iOS than Windows Phone. After all, there are not a few apps that can be used in this system. Of course, this is not the root cause. The key lies in the old problem of serious fragmentation of the Android application ecosystem. App Store’s application review is very strict, and Apple has formulated very detailed application rules for this purpose, but any failure to meet the requirements will not be linked to the shelves. For example, when it comes to apps such as pornography, piracy, cracking, and emulators, the idea of putting them on the App Store can basically be dispelled. It’s just strict. Apple allows developers to perform hot updates and open enterprise certificates, which have made App Store vulnerabilities to be found. Everyone, remember that last year, a porn app in the App Store was successfully put on the shelves by disguising as a normal app, and it became pornographic through a hot update? A trick to change the day by stealth, directly dangling Apple for manual review, wonderful. But in any case, the security and privacy that Apple relies on the closed application ecosystem management ecosystem to bring to users is also obvious. So, is the app review on the Android side very hip? But in fact, it’s not. Take the world’s largest application store Google Play as an example, its application review is also strict and meticulous. Everything exists Abuse of authority, contain illegal content, crack piracy and infringement, collect user privacy, malicious software, false statements, excessive advertising Apps with other behaviors are not allowed to be put on the shelves. Therefore, some old drivers will find that some domestic apps are obviously full of advertisements. But after it was put on the Google Play store, it became a good person and a refreshed conscience. He didn’t even dare to get too many permissions. Old Yin and Yang. This is one of the reasons why many Android users prefer to use the Google version of the app. Who doesn’t like a clean and simple app? Unfortunately, most domestic Android users cannot enjoy the clean and refreshing Google Play application. At last In fact, Xiao Lei said so much, just to tell everyone that there is no absolute difference between Android and iOS. To say that iOS has less malware than Android is undoubtedly a one-sided statement. The open source Android has attracted more manufacturers to join, with more flexible gameplay and free application installation methods, but at the same time it must bear the problem of application ecological fragmentation. As for iOS, the advantage is naturally closed and safe, and users sacrifice the right to freely install various third-party apps. A friend of Xiaolei who holds an iPhone often envied me for having all kinds of black technology software, and played Xposed so thoroughly. Manufacturers are now stepping up application review. As long as everyone downloads an application from a regular application store, the probability of encountering malware is less than that of winning the lottery… More than any other malware, the meaning is really not big
