A report by the mobile security firm Arxan Technologies threw up these alarming statistics that all app users must keep in mind while downloading them.

It found that 97 per cent of the top, paid Android apps and 87 per cent of the top, paid iOS apps have been hacked.
Free apps did not fare better, with 80 per cent of them on Android and 75 per cent on iOS found vulnerable.These applications "are clear targets for hackers who are rallying to carry out malicious and sophisticated attacks," the firm said in a statement.
