Malware infections from the Play Store have usually been on the order of thousands infected, with the occasional instance of 500k-1 million (http://www.ibtimes.co.uk/google-removes-13-android-apps-play...). XcodeGhost infected more than 500 million of a smaller total userbase (http://www.macrumors.com/2015/09/20/xcodeghost-chinese-malwa...). The numerator is an order of magnitude larger, and the denominator is an order of magnitude smaller, so a much higher percentage of iPhones have been infected with malware.

I can't find the percentage of Wechat users who use iOS, but that 500 million number is potential based on the fact that Wechat had 500 million users at the time.

Clearly not all are iOS, and clearly not all happened to have that one compromised version.

That was indeed a serious breach, but the rigor of your comparison is lacking.
