Is it really safer on a phone ? Don't banking apps reject latest community Androids builds with all the CVE fixes or Graphene OS yet work totally fine on years old, full of vulnerabilities yet signed official Android ROMs ?


Sadly yes. The average joe is not a target for technical exploits that use CVEs. They are, however, targets for meatsack exploits tricking them in installing crap like remote control software.
