I think someone hacked into my phone and they are doing it through my sim number. What can I do?

My phone is just acting up I like it will block certain phone numbers or if I try to go into a security website it blocks it

iPhone 13, iOS 17

If Calling Certain Numbers an Opening Websites Don't Work:


A. Disable Screen Time:

  1. Go to: Settings
  2. Tap: Screen Time
  3. Tap: Turn Off Screen Time(so that it is greyed-out)


B. Disable a VPN:

Have a VPN? If so, disable it. See if it then works. Security Software just gets in the way on an Apple device, and this is a pure example of how and why.
