Who do I report to that my iPhone is being hacked by a developer?

If all of your gear is compromised, you either need to reset all of it, or use a separate device until this is sorted. Resetting all of it may not have the desired outcome, until and unless you can reset all of it completely, particularly if your password security is compromised.

Who do you report this to? You report your concerns to local authorities; to local police. They can work with Apple, as and when they need.

Or you can work through local victims rights advocates or legal representation. If there’s a contested divorce happening, legal representation is going to be inevitable.

They can work with you to assist in whatever plans or transitions or other actions might arise here.

How to secure your devices and your information was previously linked. Here it is again:

… https://help.apple.com/pdf/personal-safety/en_US/personal-safety-user-guide.pdf

If you suspect your devices were compromised, the iPhone and Mac and whatever else then gets factory reset and passwords reset on your Apple ID, mail accounts, cellular plan PIN, social media passwords, pretty much all of your password get reset, and you best enable two-factor authentication, and most or all of which was in the linked safety document.

iPhone reset:

And resetting your devices will remove any potential evidence, hence starting the discussion with police and/or your legal representation and/or domestic victims’ assistance. Quite possibly on an unrelated phone, whether borrowed a friend or neighbor’s, or a “burner”, or otherwise.

There is nothing in that screenshot that indicates your phone has been hacked. Unless you have jailbroken your phone or someone has had access to it while it was unlocked, it wasn't hacked.

However, it is possible that your husband has gained access to your accounts, including your Apple ID.

he has access to developers, GitHub codes

i am not sure exactly how he does it bc I am not tech but I know he does and he has and I need to protect myself and my kids … I have a lot more info and like I said I may not know the right terms but I know for a fact what he has done just not sure how and I have no one local to help me

if I had guidance I can provide anything

None of what you’ve described is an indication of a compromise.

Most folks have access to “github codes”, including you. The github servers host myriad projects, open-source and otherwise.

The Apple app development tools specifically integrate with and provide access to git source code servers including github.

If you do not trust your husband, your choices point to discussions with a lawyer; about the future of the marriage, and potentially about claimed actions here.

None of which are technical issues, nor will these be addressed here.

Here is how to lock down your accounts…

…though engaging a victim’s advocate or victim’s rights agency or similar organization or legal representation may be far more appropriate for this situation.

Again, at its core, this is less a technical question than one of trust and of access. You do not appear to trust your husband. Your claims of unauthorized access to your devices are also troubling. Not things we can address here. Depending on your situation, direct local assistance is likely best, too; folks that specialize in these social and relationship issues, and for relationships that aren’t working for the participants.

Well I’m feeling more stupid by the minute… so I guess he is toying with me to make me look crazy… but the fact of the matter is …. He has access and was able to gain access by my old phone coming in contact with my new phone… I don’t know how and everything I thought I knew seems to be untrue… so basically I don’t know how he does it but I do know he gets access …I just want to ensure that I can get him off our devices and not track us so I can keep us safe….

This Personal Safety document has been posted before:

Only you can choose to follow these instructions, and only you can change your approaches, and only you can improve your security, and only you can change and can form different and better associations and better relationships with others. Nobody else is going to make those changes for you. Only you.

Follow the link. Follow the instructions. Only you can do that.

For the non-technical aspects of this discussion, that involves lawyers, police, and/or victims’ rights organizations.

We each have a finite time and finite focus and finite skills, and some folks can need more help than what can be available in a forum, or can need different help. Claimed-hacking threads involving abuse are not something most folks have much familiarity with, and not something easily addressed or often even addressable around here.

Some folks posting are abused.

Some are hacked.

Some folks are not abused and are not hacked, and have their own and different reasons for their “hacked” threads. Lots of hacked threads are “simple” password compromises. Others are folks that are fearful and concerned by cryptic but entirely benign log messages.

We are left with what is and is not posted. We can’t see bruises. Bruises are but one symptom of abuse too, and many others are known to exist. Some folks can post here, some can contact police and lawyers, and others cannot.

There are organizations specifically working for the rights of abused partners of all sorts, though far too many are overloaded in recent years. We’re not a good clearinghouse for finding these resources, as most tend to be local, laws too tend to be local or regional, and the community here is global. (The US did implement the 988 telephone crisis center recently. Other countries and regions may or will have other numbers.)

This document is the Apple resource that combines the recommendations and the checklists available from Apple:

For the rest of this discussion, that involves lawyers, police, and/or victims’ rights organizations, as the purported incidents here can be construed as crimes.

As previously stated, many, many times, iPhones cannot be 'hacked' without exorbitant costs and ridiculous overheads.

I doubt it, but are your devices 'jailbroken'? A jailbroken device does not have the benefit of Apple's built-in security. It's a possibility, but a slim one - Unauthorized modification of iOS can cause security vulnerabilities, instability, shortened battery life, and other issues - Apple Support

The only other thing I can think of that could allow device access is a Mobile Device Management (MDM) profile (though I doubt it). They're typically installed by employers, schools, or other official organizations, and allow additional privilege and access to a device. It's a simple check- go to Settings > General and look for an option called Profiles & Device Management. If you don’t see this option in Settings, your device is not being controlled/managed by MDM.

Regarding your account, I'll point you back to this link - If you think your Apple ID has been compromised - Apple Support

This checklist helps too - Checklist: If you want to see if anyone else has access to your device or accounts - Apple Support

We can only help with queries about Apple technology and accounts. We are not equipped (or at least, I'm not) to give legal advice or have any special privileges when it comes to reporting possible crimes.

It sounds as if he has access to your Apple ID. Have you followed the instructions in this article?

If you think your Apple ID has been compromised - Apple Support

Throw that phone away and get a pay-as-you-go phone from Wal-Mart or Target with a new number.

That’s because there is nowhere at Apple to report it. It should be reported to law enforcement.

Also, do not connect any new phone to your house wifi, that may be compromised, too.

Pegasus? That seems doubtful. I’d wonder if you’re getting gaslit.

I’d also wonder why this discussion involves your husband, and not a lawyer and/or police.

Various versions of Pegasus can be detected with available tools, and there are folks interested in accessing such devices.
