If you want to discuss “getting hacked” with your iPhone, that depends on how much you’re worth to an attacker. Is it likely that somebody will pay most of a million US dollars to get at your stuff? if so, you might have a problem. Otherwise, not so much.


Do you have two-factor authentication enabled? If not, go turn that on.


Looked at and resolved the Apple security recommendations? (Settings > Passwords > Security Recommendations)


And as for your question: There’s no “iPhone hacked” indicator. Detection tends to be indirect. If you’re hacking issues or concerns, what are those?
