While I'm no iGroupie, there is a difference between the apps available for the iPhone and those available for Android and other smart phones.
The App store for Apple is much more restrictive when it comes to getting your apps to be available to the public. This has resulted in far fewer cases of malicious (malware/virus/etc.) apps being spread from their app store than for Android (whose app store has been deemed by some tech writers as "the wild west").
You'll also find, on average, higher quality in the Apple app store than in the unregulated stores.
