I think someone hacked my phone

I use boingo’s wifi which has no password but requires an account (I have one) and Im just wondering if somebody with or without an account could get on the red and hack my phone. And If they do are they able to see my gallery, messages and passwords? My phone just turn off out of nowhere and had to turn it back on. Usually my phone locks for 2 minute because someone was trying to unlock it. I’ve read that’s a sign of hacking.

I just wanna know that my personal life keeps being personal.

By hack, if you mean remotely controlling your device, then...

Keep the iPhone updated to the latest iOS always and never Jailbreak. That's it.

iOS / iPadOS devices cannot be hacked or infected with Virus / Malware / Spyware if it is updated to the latest iOS/iPadOS unless you have intentionally downloaded spurious software or unauthorized apps directly from the 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 information pertaining to your iPhone such as Passcode, Password, etc with your friends and family members.

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