iphone hacked, Apple knows, won't do anything

I have done a complete clean reinstall over my phone, using my carrier's wifi, going to the Apple Store and having them do it through Itunes, etc. I upgraded and he had that hacked within 30 minutes so i went back to my old one


Hacker can see and control my phone, creates fake updates and apps, and removes Icloud Photos to stop me from backing up and then put it back in a different spot


Apple has known since 2018 and won't do anything. That these phones can't be hacked is the biggest running lie in Telecomm. I could provide hundreds of different proofs


iPhone 7, iOS 13

He can remove any setting he wants like the "default apps" in Youtube. When i went to send proof to the authorities (I was targeted for Whistle Blowing and my desktop is hacked just as bad too) you can see where he took the most incriminating screenshots right out of the Tweet. He then blacked out my app all together. And more examples of how the updates are screwy

iOS / iPadOS devices cannot be hacked or infected with Virus / Malware / Spyware if it is updated to latest iOS/iPadOS, unless you have intentionally downloaded spurious softwares or unauthorised apps directly from internet and installed on your device or/and have Jail Broken. 

It (Hacking) also depends on how careful are you in sharing sensitive and valuable informations of your iPhone such as Passcode, Password etc with your friends and family members.


Be careful when sharing the device's sensitive and valuable informations with friends and family members.

I didn't share anything or download anything. This guy has hacked 6 phones. I switched from Android to Apple, from Sprint to AT&T and changed my number and it still didn't stop him.


Like i said, the phone has been completely reset in the Apple Store and he hacks it within minutes

And the hackers keep doing that same hack


"SIX iPhone security flaws have been found by Google researchers – and Apple still hasn't fixed one of them.

Apples claims they fix the problem but either they don't or the hackers just get around the fix
