N Narco220 macrumors regular Original poster Jun 21, 2009 #1 How secure are the apps from cydia? is there a approval process for what gets in the store? How do we know we ain't installing password/keystroke loggers etc within apps? Or is that just a risk we take like with any hacked computer device?
