Ok, to be specific, in the past three years, there have been exactly five 
malware apps which made it onto the iPhone. None of these apps remained in the 
App Store for more than 3 days. There have been significantly over a thousand 
malware apps on the Google Play Store, several of which are currently available.

As for viruses, there has not yet been a successful virus spread across iPhones 
that are not jailbroken. Android, and jailbroken iOS have been successfully hit 
by viruses multiple times.

According to the latest metrics I have read, iOS and Windows Phone are the 
safest platforms.
