G+_Benjamin Breüner Frost Posted May 5, 2015 Share Posted May 5, 2015 This is one of the few things that i see as Androids weaknesses. i know that many don't really do it, but checking what permissions apps asks for before installing them, and then judge if you think it's worth it. now for me it sounds a little like they don't think you can run into something like this on IOS, but i still would love to see an experiment like this done on IOS too.

G+_Jason Perry Posted May 6, 2015 Author Share Posted May 6, 2015 I do believe somwhere in the article they alluded to they have done this for iOS. Only I dont think they shared numbers only its not as bad. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
G+_Benjamin Breüner Frost Posted May 6, 2015 Share Posted May 6, 2015 For what i can see they just say that Apple App Store is more strict in their approval of apps than google play, but i could have missed something. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
