Same here, same phone same iOS! No app installed, no desire to install! How is the App developer able to communicate with my “hopefully” very secure iPhone without my consent / permission?

I don’t have a solution. Now the sound, on my phone, is “playing” every time when I go in a Bulgarian Website called “Ozone”. Only there. It is so strange. But the strangest thing is that it only happens when I open the site from Google Chrome. When I open it on Safari - nothing.

Exactly the same thing has happened to me. This came after a Japanese App called SWITCHER installed itself on my phone. And after a Family profile was set up by itself. My Apple ID passwords were changed and then I was told my credit cards had been put in my Apple wallet. Not hi me. Apple saw some of this activity whilst I was screen sharing and have put it to the engineers and for the Apple Bounty. The police told me this was sophisticated hacking and escalated to the GB National Fraud intelligence Bureau. They also told me Apple security is like a tent without piles. My accessibility settings are changed to DETECTOR MODE with magnifier. Something called APPLE RECIPES is being used to remotely control my phone. The senior tech person at Apple had never heard of the recipes setting. I asked Apple and the police if I was just being paranoid. I was told what was haptic me was “not in my head” and that this was very real. Total takeover of my iPhone 15 pro Max and MacBook Air M2 15 “ multiple times for the last six months.

Any suggestions? Has anyone experienced similar? It’s disrupted by life and nearly destroyed my business
