Settings changing

"Settings changing: Anyone having any issues with their settings changing on their own?"

-------

No. I have never had this issue. But, if you are suspicious of this, then someone may your credentials. So, consider modifying your credentials. Perform this on a computer, as it would be more user-friendly doing so.

 Modify your Credentials:

If you are concerned about you account information being compromised, then by all means modify your credentials. You are able to log into these forums just fine. So, log into iCloud, and modify your credentials, starting with a new, strong password and using a new eMail address (for Apple).

• Modify: your login credentials (Using Both a New eMail and a New Passwordfor each and all sites)
• Associate: a different method of payment to your account
• Enable: Two-Factor Authentication for Apple ID and for all other accounts that have such an applicable option

"Settings changing: Some of the settings include my phone name changes. My mailbox order changes. Noise canceling in one AirPod turns off after I have just turned it on for the day. Notification settings change as to sound or no sound. Banners and badges settings on notifications change. App order changes on screens."

Reset to Factory Settings:

One thing to consider is to restore the iPhone to factory settings. Use of this Link: Restore your iPhone, iPad, or iPod to Factory Settings - Apple Support. Important - back up first, as mentioned in that link.

Important:

On the iPhone Both Before and After the Reset:

Enable different iCloud settings on your iPhone, so that all is restorable, after the reset...

1. Go to: Settings
2. Tap: Your Name (Top Item)
3. Tap: iCloud
4. Tap: Contacts (so that it is green in-color)

"Settings changing: I am having no luck here with my issues. As i explained earlier, I have already done this. The changes continue."

Contact Apple Support:

You can also contact Apple Support, asking them for assistance with this. If desired, request a screensharing session with them. Doing so, they can easily run you through the fix, as they will be seeing this from your perspective. 

Apple’s Contact Information:

• Contact Us - Choose Locations
• U.S.A:(800)MY-APPLE
• Proceed from there as necessary

Note: Phone calls are taking a bit to go through at the moment, due to lots of calls. And that makes sense, because with the Coronavirus Pandemic, many are at home at the moment, with much time on their hands to contact Apple. So, just stay on the line, and you will get through :)

"I already have an apple email and have changed my password several times. None of these things have stopped my settings from changing. If the setting is not locked by password it will change."

What "Settings"?:

What Setting(s) are you referring to? If something has the option to lock settings, then presumably: Yes. It will be locked and all this self-resetting will end. So, what exactly are these settings, if I may ask?

Dare to share what settings change for you on their own?
