Technically that would make it expressly LESS secure. Is that your aim?
Regarding privacy, Apple does end to end on the vast majority of their services. Their servers are set up using a unique, physical key, that is then broken so once running, no one can get to the data.
Apps are sandboxed. Most every sensor or feature is gated behind a user setting to allow/deny.
But the most critical, Apple is a hardware company. The lions share of profits come from hardware. Google is an ad service/data manager. Probably one of the biggest reasons they dove right to amassing market share by licensing the OS to everyone outside Apple. It certainly helps their vested interests.
Trust whomever you like, but most things are true to their nature. Whether you want to believe it or not.
If you root your phone you can go both ways and give your security a good night kiss.
It is important what kind of phone it is as well. Android devices are a wild world where you can stop getting any updates last week. Also, being able to unlock bootoader does not mean you will get the ability to install any rom you want. Usually this only counts for more expensive devices. Otherwise you might be lucky to get a rom maintained by one guy from India who is taking care of 5 other roms.

If you root a phone then you can remove alot of insecurities and also if you unlock the bootloader you can install something more secure like calyxOS
