Wow, I must say your family is very brave if they ask for tech advice from someone who is suggesting iPhone because he is afraid that malware on Android will make his tech-advising task more difficult.

To be clear - I have tech-supported hundreds if not thousands of people over the last 10 years, I have never seen any piece of malware on any Android device. It is almost impossible to download malware on any Android device that runs Google Play and it has been the case for many years.

This shit isn’t even funny anymore lol.

600 million users were infected from official Google Play Store alone in 2023.
