"We're talking about protection from scams. A YouGov study says iOS users are 65% more likely than Android users to report receiving three or more scam texts in a week, while Android users are 58% more likely than iOS users to say they haven't received any scam texts at all in the week before this survey took place. Furthermore, Android users are 20% more likely than iOS users to describe their device's scam protections as "very effective" or "extremely effective"."
"Speaking of Google, Pixel device owners were 96% more likely than iPhone owners to report zero scam texts, iPhone users were 136% more likely than Pixel owners to say they'd received a heavy volume of scam messages, and iPhone users were also 150% more likely than Pixel owners to say their device was not effective at all in stopping mobile fraud."
A YouGov survey of 5,000 smartphone users across the US, India, and Brazil found differences in scam text exposure and perceived protections between iOS and Android. iOS users were 65% more likely than Android users to report receiving three or more scam texts in a week, while Android users were 58% more likely to report no scam texts. Android users were 20% more likely to rate their device's scam protections as very or extremely effective. Pixel owners were substantially more likely to report zero scam texts, and iPhone owners more likely to report heavy volumes and ineffective protections. A device comparison showed iPhone trailing in built-in security features while Android emphasized call screening, scam detection, real-time scam warnings, Google Messages filtering, and on-device AI analysis of unknown senders.
