Google’s mission to make Android more like iPhone continues, at least when it comes to security and privacy, narrowing the gap.
App security has always been the biggest issue for Google when it comes to Android security. The inherent risks with sideloading have never been resolved, even with Play Protect’s expanded mandate to secure apps from any source. But Play Store itself is not immune from attack, , “Play Store could warn you if an app seems to be of low quality. The store could specifically warn you if an app has been frequently uninstalled, has limited user data, or has few active users… We dug into a recent version of the Play Store app and discovered Google will display a few cautionary messages for apps that are likely to be low-quality downloads.”
