Androids have been known to have viruses running around there apps...that give hackers full control of the phone/tablet...even if its to turn the device off, or on.

Apple has done a very nice job on iOS,
it has an app store that's not opened for any one to upload what ever app they want to..
and they have more than 1 million apps...
^which makes it safer..

but androids not bad on other areas...
  • Having viruses in App Store has no relationship with whether Android is open source. It only means applications in Android App Store are not carefully reviewed.
  • Being open-source does not mean being more dangerous. Microsoft has a large enough workforce for Windows and still every week they are exposing a few security bugs in it, while security bugs for Linux kernel are terribly rare.
  • Apple carefully reviews the apps in its App Store and keeps a strict standard also means they could decide what you see and what you could not see on your phone. like a Big Brother -- and yes, they are doing this right now.

No man is an island, entire of itself; every man is a piece of the continent, a part of the main; if a clod be washed away by the sea, Europe is the less, as well as if a promontory were, as well as if a manor of thy friends or of thine own were; any man's death diminishes me, because I am involved in mankind; and therefore never send to know for whom the bell tolls; it tolls for thee.
