Hacked by Chinese and Japanese keyboard hackers

I was scrolling through my phone and noticed an app I don’t have, the Chinese and Japanese keyboard. After looking it up, it looks like I was hacked. I’m not surprised because is there things have been going on with my phone for the past year.

iPhone SE, iOS 18

Nope, you have not been hacked. Let me guess, you saw it at Settings > [name on top] > iCloud > iCloud Backup > [name of device] > Show All Apps. The same information is also available at Settings > [name on top] > iCloud > Manage Account Storage > Backups > [name of device] > Show All Apps.


The same thing is available on others iPhone too. You can shut it off if you wish and it will make no difference as long as you do not use the Japanese/Chinese keyboard. It is for keyboard suggestions on that layout.
