There are people who are not stupid but simply lazy and trust too quickly. I believe that if I were in this person's position and had this amount of Bitcoin, I would not hesitate for a moment to take some time to check whether this application is the official application or not.

I don't think it's a matter of laziness here, but rather a complete misunderstanding of proper protection when it comes to hardware wallets compared to hot wallets. Because why would someone who understands the most basic things want to "move" all their coins from a hardware wallet to a mobile hot wallet? He could have done a much less stupid thing if he had sent a smaller portion of the coins in the transaction to that mobile wallet - then this story wouldn't exist today, right?

I am pretty sure that Apple is protected in this regard.

I don't doubt it at all, I thought, since he's already done one big stupid thing, why not continue in the same direction? Perhaps it would be easier for him to live in some kind of hope than to wake up every day with the realization that he burned almost $1 million (potentially much more) due to a thoughtless action.

Not very difficult. But you could ask Jimmy the same question. They both failed miserably.

I don't know if people or stupid AI work on approving new apps, but whoever is to blame for that app being available for download shouldn't be doing that job anymore. If by any chance companies like Apple and Google were not as greedy as they are, then they would have expert people in that department who would know how to deal with such things.
