I like my phone safe, which is why i'm having second thoughts about the safety of my Android. Iphone's on the other hand, are all about safety. IPhone's passcode system is much safer than androids. Sure they both have the basic four digit passcode system, but Iphones have your data erased if you get it wrong 10 times. Most android phones don't have this feature. Android phone have a long history of privacy-hostile behavior. Apple cares much more about their customers, while google/android is more of an advertising business. Android/Google has been accused of providing the government with information about their citizens, and prohibiting anonymous accounts on various occasions. Its also much easier to catch a virus on android/Google phones than Iphones. This is because of apple limiting customization through out their phones.
So in the end I'd say even though the iPhone is safer, android can be just as safe as long as you keep it safe and are aware. Sadly, however, the majority don't know this and end up with virus infestations. So just keep that in mind before you choose which type of phone you're getting.
