The average enterprise class iPhone application isn't trusted lives with. Also, not inside an industry where an accident means deaths of hundreds of people at once. Nobody brings the average car accident in the news, for example when somebody kills themselves at the highway. But when a plane crashes, it comes in the news, so politicians and representatives of the airlines promise they do something, and tighten regulations. Meanwhile, car security is still shit as hell.

I guess its all formally proven. Is the average business iphone application formally proven?

Almost fully agree.

All those free messaging services that need all those permissions, you sign up and your contacts list is sent to them.

Suggest a better method. The developers of the popular app TextSecure have posted their thoughts on how to solve this problem, but found no way that both satisfied their needs, scalability, and the user's needs.
