Is is safe to download apps from a public Wi-Fi place?

Like for an iPhone.

Yes.

As long as you have local file sharing and other similar services turned off, yes. If you are running any sort of file and printer sharing, then it is conceivable that someone on that network could access your computer.

Sure, the appstore is very safe as no one else can install unless its from the real store.

Yes it is, went into Kroger's sit down at the starbucks and update and download some apps that was needed for my tablet, it's good to have a firewall and anti-virus setup in case of buying a app online

No!
Public Wi-Fi Hotspots are a hackers dream come true.
They just sit in a corner and packet sniff everyones device that is not using encryption to surf the internet.
Then if you log into any account using passwords they got you.
Then people come here wondering how their accounts got hacked.
The apps you download themselves are safe, but if you don't use something like a VPN in a hot spot then you're info is up for grabs. Also the Hotspot itself can track your info unless you encrypt.

Why do you think the most popular VPN is called "Hot Spot Shield"
