If it happens. maybe the crypto wallet is even safer, I think an android device has nothing to do with hackers. i guess like that.

[Tine0313 3053]

Yes, since android users are just clicking links they don't even know, maybe hackers will use that as gateway to steal information linked on android phones so i suggest to those android users to be vigilant in every link you are clicking.

But I myself think hacking will be more vulnerable and many occur on desktop devices such as laptops and PCs. Because Android is a simple system and if users don't do strange things like installing unknown applications, it will cause hacking on Android.

Android is an easy target for hackers because of weak security that's why all android users should be always careful on every link they click because it may contain malware.

since android clients are simply clicking connections they don't have the foggiest idea, possibly programmers will utilize that as an entryway to take data connected on android telephones, and I think an android gadget has nothing to do with programmers. I surmise that way.

In the current time, I think there is nothing left for the hackers to hack, they destroyed a lot things which they were more powerful than any smartphone, we should stay careful that's all

I would suggest using android wallets only with a few of your coins, because of the security problems, maybe soon there will be more trusted apps on android, but not right now!

[fuer44 1083]

the security of a cell phone is certainly different from a computer. more computers are equipped with more sophisticated security than cellphones. mobile phones only have advantages in terms of practical.

[mani982 286]

In android when we download they need access of our all information like as contact Gallery passwords location as this method hacker can easily hack or steal our money.

[bliznec 22268]

I try not to store cryptocurrency assets on my mobile phone, since it is not safe today. Large amounts are best stored on a hardware wallet. 

[Grease Lightning 169]

I recommend that you do not install applications outside of PlayStore. Honestly, I use iOS because it's safer. Also, never use public networks.

[Soaib khan 1035]

Android mobile hacking easy but I personally using Android mobile since 2015 my wallet never get hacked.if you not click any phishing link hacking not possible.

[Sasaki 171]

Well in the world of technology there's always hackers and scammers around, and they will find a path or way to penetrate some security even if its high. 

[suzuya 945]

Most of the phones in the market right now are prone to hacking but it really depends on how the user use it and also it depends on their activities if they are careful or not. We can't really tell if we can get hacked so let's just be careful on visiting sites and installing applications in our phone to avoid hackers stealing our crypto.

[Usman Abdulmumin 354]

Not only android phone,  even computer can allow hackers to steal your coins, is not the device that has lapses it's tou the operator has problem. 

[bentayebsalah 2280]

Yes, I think that Android devices are highly vulnerable and easy to hack and get all your phone data, so you should stay away from installing apps randomly.

[Saiful123 11]

We really can't tell if we can hack so just be careful about installing and installing applications on our phones to prevent hackers from stealing our crypto .Most phones in the market right now are at risk of hacking, but it depends on how the user uses it and whether they are careful or not.

This could also happen on our PCs and laptop also. We are not secure on any device if we do not work carefully. Hackers are using an app to make fool android users, they could use this trick with other devices also.

[fatima123 320]

It is not necessary that only android smartphone is reason for cryber crime or hacking issue this is due to fault of our technology because why developers leaves flaws for hackers .

[rekter 8129]

I don't think that the mobile wallets are even the biggest problem, because who stores a lot in those. Problem is also that androids are connected to your google account and hackers could use for example password recovery trough your google account.

[Benjamin 84]

This will be not happen if you are secured to your moneys and crypto coins because even though that there has a news from it, all we need to do is to secured all of it so that it can't be hacked your phone easily by someone.

I also think that it's easy to hack our Android phone. Because in the market there are a lot of fake apps. And we install these apps without inquiry for earning. Some of them have malware and it's too risky for us.

[miskyming 1588]

Nowadays the hackers are smarter now so we gotta careful, some of applications injected malware so careful what you installed especially the new wallet app, don't trust right away.

basically not only through android, sir, but also on a desktop or PC where our account can be hacked through our browser or email
