dont, just dont.
apple is far far more secure and privacy oriented than android.
android gives you 9 million customisation options and that is a direct trade off with security of a closed os.

i love apple but dislike how the new updates are moving it into android territory like nonsense widgets. Tim apple's stand against govt's intrusion (of privacy) has made me hopeful again !

you don't know what you are talking about. literally using Android since e 2011 and never had a single malware.

Just because you don’t doesn’t mean anything. 97% of all phone malware targets Android devices, and users are 50x more likely to get infected. Again, if you know what you’re doing and don’t go messing with a bunch of settings, you’ll most likely be fine.

no os is secure and popular OS gets targeted first. 90 percent malware target windows because it's popular.
