Few questions about IOS & WOS

Hello guys, I would like to ask you on some questions about IOS and Watch OS.


The first question what I have is if iPhone can get a virus from the ads (For example when you’re watching some films on the internet and it opens some ads, or you if you just watch some other films on the other sites where you also have these ads... ehm you know what I mean)


The second question is about that if I get this virus somehow if the virus can attack my Apple Watch.


And the last question that I have is how to remove it from both.


I’ll be thankful for every answer.

There has never been a virus that can infect an iPhone. Anything is possible, but for iOS it is very unlikely that it could be infected, and certainly not from an ad. Actually, no computer can be infected by viewing an ad. Malware infections require you to take some concrete action to allow the malware to be installed, such as clicking a link in an ad.
