"Almost" doesn't count for security. Android is a known insecure platform, don't allow things running on the platform to open people's cars.

> Android is a known insecure platform

And so is iOS, macOS, Windows, Linux, etc. if by insecure you mean "has has historically had security holes and can be used in an insecure manner".

If you mean that Android is just "insecure" as a general statement, though, I'd have to disagree. The operating system itself can be used in a moderately secure way is relation to other popular mobile OS's like iOS.
