virus warning?

Last night I was browsing on Google and then all of a sudden I got a warning that my iPhone was severely damaged by multiple Browser Trojan viruses. It said that I had to immediately install an app called Connection Defender or all of my data and applications would get infected and stolen. I had already installed the app but I didn’t sign up for the membership or anything like that and deleted it soon after. Does my phone actually have a virus? If not, did installing the app affect my phone in any way?

iPhone 11, iOS 13

All such messages are scams. Close the offending page and avoid sites that are involved in such bogus advertising tactics.
