A lot of this is not possible in iOS, because it doesn’t allow drawing on top of alert type messages. The attacks relating to password managers are probably still relevant. Possibly so are the ones relating to accessibility, although I don’t think iOS allows accessibility controls access like Android does.

iOS doesn't allow apps to draw over other apps at all, AFAIK.

  * In some very specific cases apps can "draw" on top of other apps, namely though the "app extension" mechanism which is completely out-of-process and very tightly controlled (for example, apps have very limited ability to modify the context outside of the "rectangle" they render in).

So the question is whether the trade-off of accessibility capabilities worth the decrease in security?

  In general terms, iOS accessibility is far greater than Android's. I would say this is more akin to a feature than accessibility, in practical means...

    iOS does accessibility natively and does not allow apps access to it to the extent that Android does, AFAIK.
