iPhone Calendar virus

My son kept getting pop ups on his iPhone 11 from his calendar (guessing it’s been a virus) and it has now completely locked and won’t let him use the phone at all. It’s stuck on Lock Screen and won’t allow him to type in his passcode or anything. Has anyone had this issue and could advise what to do?

Hello XxChristinaxX90,


We understand that your son's iPhone is showing locked after seeing spam events with the calendar. First, we recommend force restarting the iPhone to clear it from being frozen on the lock screen. Here's how: Force restart iPhone


Regarding the calendar, the following steps will help remove it once you have access: Delete spam calendars and events on iPhone
