If you feel an unauthorized person/app is remotely using, controlling or monitoring your device, then that is possible only if you have done one or more of the following Don'ts...


  1. Don't hand over an iPhone to kids or to a stranger without Enabling Guided Access
  2. Don't share Apple IDs
  3. Don't Jailbreak
  4. Don't share sensitive information pertaining to your device
  5. Don't give in to Phishing
  6. Don't plug in your device in Airports and Public places through third-party cables and trust the device. Beware of Juice Jacking. (Especially in India)
  7. Don't leave your iPhone unlocked and unattended in public places like offices, schools, malls, etc.


If one of the above is true then quickly change the Apple ID Password and Return iPhone settings to their defaults.

To maintain your privacy and security, Apple does not provide a method to see who has accessed your account specifically. However, Apple does provide some measures to ensure you’re the only one accessing your account.


If you suspect that someone else has accessed your Apple ID, it would be wise to take a few steps:


1. Check recent devices: Go to your Apple ID account page (appleid.apple.com) and sign in. In the devices section, you can see the devices where you’re currently signed in with your Apple ID.

2. Change your Apple ID password: This can help secure your account. Go to Settings > [your name] > Password & Security > Change Password.

3. Enable two-factor authentication: If you haven’t already done so, enable two-factor authentication. This adds an extra layer of security to your Apple ID.

4. Sign out of all devices: If you see any unfamiliar devices on your account page, you can remove them from your account. This will sign out your Apple ID on that device.


If you still believe someone else has accessed your account, you should contact Apple support for further assistance. Remember to never share your passwords or sensitive information with others, and always ensure you’re on the official Apple website when entering your details.
