Depends on the App as some are built well whereas others are absolute dog toffee.  Plus sometimes the teams they hire to pentest the app are not very good but as long as they get their tick in the box to say it has passed testing.....

Yes....but, then again, it's always been a balance between trust and paranoia.

Indeed. Whilst I roughly know where I stand with https site on a mainstream web browser, all bets are off with an "app" knocked up in a sweatshop somewhere so if it won't work with a web browser, I'm out.

May be unrelated but would  it have been possible for the android system to have shared info?

If I install an app on my s6 it will ask to share some info before I can use the app, if you click no it will eitjer not work and ask you again or it will have limited functionality

Google store is known to be riddled with Malware, due to the (even now) lax attitude of Google towards security.

And you wonder why I refuse to use Chrome on any device .  Yet I wonder how many insist on running it on Windows with full Admin rights (and UAC disabled, for those who's ego far outweighs their capability).

You can probably sideload the APK on Rooted / Developer Android, will probably work, most Apps opt for Google Services to be installed and running thats mostly where the Privacy issue comes in, personally I dont use Google Services for one of them reasons.
