That right there is exactly why I literally dumped my iOS devices and went to Droid.
For the things I do, Droid works perfectly and I can always find a "free" app to do what I need on my Droid device which are basic email, text messaging and a GPS app for driving and bicycling.
I hear you loud and clear about "security" on Droid devices which is practically non-existent. That's why I keep NOTHING on my device (I did the same with my iOS devices btw, purely out of a "security posture.")
Guessing I'm somewhat 'unique' in my approach to using smartphones in that regard.
And your message is proof positive I made the right decision, your message proves exactly my other statement:
Android’s “Costs are too high and user base is too cheap”
