Okay, good point.
On Apple iPhones, you have to give permission to apps to track you in the background. I am not familiar with Android, but I expect they also provide that ability. I guess the difference is iPhones can only get apps from Apple's App store which has rigorous testing before an app can be listed on the app store. It isn't perfect, but they try.
If I understand Android phones correctly you can download any app from anywhere you want, which opens it up to more "malware".
