    I’m on Android 9 and the only apps that haven’t played nice are a couple banking apps.

        Certainly. Though of the 9 that I attempted to install, 1 required a newer OS.

          I can’t imagine the number of security holes it has 🥹

            You apple fanboys are exaggerating that. On the 2.5 billion android devices, 88% of them aren’t running the latest version and probably would never get it. Yet I don’t see any widespread hacking.

              I responded to the wrong comment. The same person said that they are still running android 9 on their phone. It is a couple comments up from this one.

      902 security vulnerabilities published for Android 9, 179 of which are “critical” (9+) vulnerability scores.

      Including “This could lead to remote escalation of privilege with no additional execution privileges needed. User interaction is not needed for exploitation.

      Yeah, no thanks.

        most of them if not all are mitigated by google play services. otherwise there would be 2 billion of infected android phones and there would be many alarmist posts like when ten years ago stagefright happened
