How safe are App store apps?


i wondering if apple checks every app on store make sure don't have key loggers, virus or malware. i'm 99% sure don't asked me , wanted know sure.

stuff in question these free ad based goofy apps. put katy perry in pic you.
 

app store apps can't access things outside of app except in specific cases (like location, contacts, , photos).

there have been cases apps doing things uploading contacts servers without telling (i think apple fixed in recent patch has ask).

traditional malware keyloggers have run in background , access things outside of own folder pretty aren't possible app store app on non-jailbroken device.

not 1 never ever through process or find exploit, it's pretty unlikely.

need watch out personal information. might not technically malware if download free gimicky app , give bunch of personal information issue.
