In January 2019, in an arrest of drug dealer Angel Angulo, American police confiscated an LG device running Android of this name (unknown model). Members of the US Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives (ATF) were unable to cross the smartphone lock screen with a dedicated tool to find more evidence. The agency is asking for an extension of the investigation for another 120 days to find ways to open the device and find more evidence in the phone.

Android smartphones are increasingly appreciated for security compared to iPhone.

The US investigating agency has admitted that the Android operating system is becoming safer and more difficult to penetrate. Even some experts in charge of decoding digital devices have long believed that security on Android phones has surpassed the iPhone.

Some experts say that the new updates of Android have continuously been added with security features and regular upgrades that making passing their lock screen more and more difficult.
