The Android operating system has lots of built-in security features, such as application sandboxing, protection against buffer and integer overflow attacks, and segregated memory areas for program instructions and data. As a result, simple Android apps that don&#39;t perform any file system or networking operations can often be considered secure by default.
1. Use Internal Storage for Sensitive Data.
2. Encrypt Data on External Storage.
3.Use HTTPS For network operations 
4. Avoid Asking for Personal Data
5. Use ProGuard Before Publishing
