Scammer installed malware

A scammer installed malware on my iphone (AnyDesk), and though I deleted the ap, I think there may be traces of it still on the phone. Do I need to worry? What should I do?

Did the scammer have physical possession of your phone? If they did not they did not install malware on it. If you are concerned restore the phone to factory settings ➡️ Restore your iPhone, iPad, or iPod to factory settings - Apple Support. You can restore a backup made before the incident happened, but not a backup made after.
