Android versus iOS is nothing new as it is it a topic of debate for a very long time and it is also claimed that iOS is safer than Android. But things are not like that. A new survey has revealed that Android is considered to be better than iOS in terms of protecting users from scams. So let’s get into the article to learn the full details.
In the latest survey, it is said that Android is much better than iOS in terms of protecting scams. A YouGov study says iOS users are 65% more likely than Android users to report about receiving three or more scam texts in a week, while Android users are 58% more likely than iOS users to say that they are not receiving any scam texts at all in the week. Moreover, Android users are 20% more likely than iOS users to describe their device’s scam protections as “very effective” or “extremely effective”.
The survey is coming from 5,000 smartphone users across the US, India, and Brazil. It is also said that the owners of the Google Pixel devices were 96% more likely than iPhone owners to report zero scam texts.
It is also suggested that Android’s “robust call screening”, scam detection, and real-time scam warning authentication capabilities offer the advantage to Android over iOS.
The Google Messages application can filter known spam and for more complex threats, it supports Scam Detection that uses on-device AI to analyze messages from unknown senders for patterns of conversational scams and it will offer real-time warnings. It is also capable to block links in messages that are determined to be spam or scams.
While the Phone by Google app automatically blocks known spam calls, and Call Screen can answer the call on your behalf. The application also comes with AI powered features to provide real-time warnings for suspicious conversational patterns.
