Many mobile apps rely on shared components/libs/frameworks that are either developed by the company or are FOSS (libpl_droidsonroids_gif for example). In either case...they are platform agnostic and usually written in C. And as we all know C is full of memory handling problems like overflows.

Hopefully in 2020 and beyond people will be developing these shared components in Rust instead.
