What do I do if my iPhone has been cloned or mirrored

Ah, okay. This explains everything without having to look any further.

All my accounts passwords have been changed, and the recovery email and phone numbers are changed even my Facebook.

You only have one option. Abandon all of your current accounts. Your Apple ID, Facebook page, etc. He has control of your accounts and there's no good way, if any, to get them back.

First and foremost, make backups of your personal photos and contacts to a desktop computer. Save your messages, too. Though I'm not sure how to do that. I've never tried it, I just know it can be done.

The hardest thing to do will be to release your iPhone from your current account. Without knowing the new password your ex gave it, you can't sign it out of your account in order to erase the phone.

Take the iPhone to an Apple Store, along with proof of purchase. The latter is a requirement in order to have any hope Apple will touch it. They otherwise have to assume you may be trying to get access to a stolen phone. Explain your situation and ask them to release the phone from its current account and erase it back to factory condition. Then you can sign it into a new account.

And don't make that simple to break, either.

Make two new email accounts. One will be for your Apple ID, only. Do not tell anyone else what that new email address for the Apple ID is. Not your friends, parents or pets. Once created, sign your iPhone into the new account.

The other email address you create will be the one you use for all general email use with your friends, a new Facebook account, etc.

You have to be willing to let the old address go, even though that will mean losing any software you've purchased via the App Store. You'll have to purchase any necessary titles again under the new account.

Cloning or mirroring a phone is the realm of TV shows and movies.

In the real world, someone knows your Apple ID and password. With that, they can login to your account from pretty much any other device and see everything you do. Emails, texts, photos, etc.

Change your password and your 2FA answers. Also remove any devices you don't recognize from your account. If whoever is in your account hasn't already changed the password and locked you out of your own account, that is.

You can find a lot of info online about cloning/mirroring a phone. Including software you can purchase to do so. However, none of these actually clone your physical phone. They simply access your iCloud data through your Apple ID and password. Which a person can do without any additional software at all.

The fix? Change your password to something difficult guess.

Nope, it isn't. Unless you've jailbroken your phone, there is no way possible to remotely and directly access an iPhone. It requires physical possession of the phone for an extended period of time. As a for-instance, just handing it someone to look at a photo or something and having it handed back to you can do nothing.

Someone has access to your account, not the phones themselves.

I didn’t know you could listen through peoples phones without them being on it with someone…

That, literally, isn't possible. Only one phone can be assigned a given phone number. That phone is the only one with that SIM connection and IMEI number. No other phone will ever be able to call or answer from the same number.

The only way anyone else can know what your phone conversations are is if your ex also installed a recording app on your phone, then accesses the recordings. This can also be done with other types of available spyware. If your ex jailbroke your phone, then almost anything is possible. But no matter which of these, your conversations can only be accessed after the fact, not live.

Other than that, it requires software only available to law enforcement to break into a live, private conversation. And even then, they require a warrant.

Once you get your phone released from its current Apple account and signed into a new one, your ex will have zero access to it. Not unless you tell someone else what both your new Apple ID and password are.

Most users here (myself included) won't even try to read an unbroken wall of text like this. Try again, only much briefer, broken into logical paragraphs, and to the point.

you are having all the same things I've been dealing with for the last three years on my iPhone. And I believe mine two is an ex. Apple also told me to contact law-enforcement alongbwith my cell carrier .. i did and they opened the case but they do nothing but take reports. i've changed my iClouds passwords create a new accounts new phone numbers I don't know how many times ... everything I do they get back into.. my home wifi gets hacked I had some guy on his private satellite server on my Wi-Fi

all of our devices android and Apple I've bought four computers at least 10 phones I could go on and on.

it's really sick and it's exhausting and I wish that Apple could help because no one has the right to spy on our phones. Its a total violation of our privacy & against the law.

i'm also doing talk to text too ! lol I don't blame you!!

I read all of your posts I get it!

FYI lots of things can be done remotely prople open ur eyeballs !!!

whoever said that is incorrect there's also people you can pay on the dark web I was informed to stalk and harass people.

Let me know if you ever figure yours out I've been trying for years and always a dead end!!! i too have lots of proof screen shots etc . Total ridculousness!

hugs and prayers to you!!! i hope the nightmare stops for you to &!soon!
