Do I have a virus?

I was currently at a movie site called Sop2day, the site gives you free movies and shows, so I came across a pop-up that took me and opened app-store. When I went back to safari my device warned me I had a virus. Then I looked up signs that your phone has a virus, and it said that if a pop up opens up AppStore or iTunes it has a virus, So I want to know if my phone has a virus or not

iPhone XR, iOS 13

Your iPhone does NOT have a virus. The popups are a scam that lead you to purchase apps in the App Store by scaring you that you have virus. Treat this as scam and do not click on any popups without careful thought.
