And that article is from early 2019.

IMHO iOS security always has been pretty bad, but Android security was worse in the early days. However Google has been trying to clean up their mess since Android 7 or so.

Yes, Android security was taken seriously starting from 8 Oreo. However, the long going open source model of Android overtaking the closed source conservative iOS was only a matter of time. Now, iOS will either need to open up to compete, or stay inferior forever.
