Being hacked on every device

And I’m always connected to some server

The screenshot show the exact opposite. You are not connected. The System Administrator is a standard reference when you are attempting to connect to a server. How did you get to that screen? On way to do it is to open the Files app and tap the 3 dots on top and enter an address. As you have seen that does not allow you to connect.

Since you have the Feedback app on your phone, then you installed beta software or turned on the option at Settings > General > Software Update. Remove it by doing a Factory Reset with your phone connected to a computer. Do not restore from a backup. Any data that you do not sync in iCloud, such as iCloud Photos, should first be saved in another location. Set the device up again with only your Apple ID.

The Xcode Preview shows up when you select it in the Accessibility Settings at Settings > Accessibility > Per App Settings > Add App > Xcode Previews. You may have followed some Social Media video without knowing what you were doing and they are attempting to scare you.

Yes, when a user has been told that they have not been hacked and they still do not believe it, the only thing left is to tell them to go to the Police or FBI, exactly like you have been told. Nothing you have provided shows you have been hacked at all. You have the instructions to reset the iPhone to Factory Settings, and do not restore from a backup. If you still believe you are hacked after that, then I would make the same suggestion as others and continue your pursuit with the FBI.

I don't dispute what theEpicEgg56 suggested as an alternative that can be used in extremely rare circumstances, but that really is not going to be a solution for an espionage campaign that would be targeting you. Apple even makes note of the use case here:

• Lockdown Mode helps protect devices against extremely rare and highly sophisticated cyber attacks.
• Lockdown Mode is an optional, extreme protection that’s designed for the very few individuals who, because of who they are or what they do, might be personally targeted by some of the most sophisticated digital threats. Most people are never targeted by attacks of this nature.

If this is really the case for you, then the FBI would make more sense and you are going to need far more protections than what can be offered here. Lockdown Mode cripples your device and at that point you probably would be better off without a cell phone at all.

As noted by Limnos, an exploit of what you are referring to would cost somewhere in the range of a million dollars or more. A targeted attack of that nature is going to be far more involved, with other exploits such as a wiretap on your cell provider that cannot be prevented with Lockdown Mode, and not to mention, possibly other forms of surveillance. Apple is capable of notifying you if you are a victim of one of these mercenary spyware attacks.

The good news is that what you have posted in your screenshots does not indicate any of that is happening.

Correct. You are not being hacked. Nothing that you have posted is indicative of being hacked. If you truly believe that you are being "hacked," factory reset your device.

Just some final points for clarification:

• Your phone is running CloudKit, HomeKit, Siri Search processes all the time and producing hundreds of logs with that reference, whether you are using them or not. They are part of iOS and you don't just see them on your device, they are on everyone's and they are not showing you any nefarious activity. None of those require anything to be installed or turned on before those logs are generated.
• Finding a GPS Tracker in your truck is a serious concern and a Police matter. Nothing to do with either of your phones though. Ironically it is also using Verizon and you have the IMEI number that links the device to the Verizon account. If Verizon won't help, the police can issue them a subpoena.
• Your Facebook account could easily have been compromised, but still that is not a phone matter on either device.
• The issue with Verizon Restrictions preventing actions may certainly be the case. Again, nothing to do with your phone and would be a Verizon account compromise or misconfiguration on their end. If no assistance, change cell providers and all problems relating to that are gone.
• You do have several Shortcuts installed, and those are installed easily by clicking a link or sharing them. How they were installed in your case is unknown. If I had to guess, I would say from Social Media links.
• The iCloud verification code you see is exactly what you should be seeing. That is the page you see after signing into iCloud on the web. Once you do that the verification code will pop up on your Trusted Devices.
• Your Android phone may certainly be compromised, just as an iPhone that has been jailbroken. I have not had the experience with Android to dispute or troubleshoot, and I have to assume your iPhone is not jailbroken as that is an intentional action that you would have to perform or someone with physical access to your device that knows your Passcode/Password. With your concern about security, I suspect that is not the case.

Good luck and I hope you get the help you are looking for. I would really consider giving up the cell phones. We all lived with landlines for a very long time and it seemed to work out fine. There may be some convenience with a cell phone, but it certainly is not required. If you believe your family is at risk without any resolution to satisfy your suspicions and compare that to the convenience of a cell phone, the family should win every time. That would be an easy decision.

I agree with the comments here mostly, but if you really are being hacked, there is a Lockdown Mode on many devices. It is in Settings, then privacy and security, and usually at the bottom. It basically makes your devices as secure as possible at the cost of features.

However, I doubt you actually are being hacked.

Diagnostic logs are useless to you and will not reveal anything nefarious. Not sure if someone told you that they are useful or if you made that decision yourself. The sole purpose is for Apple Engineers when they are requested after a Support Ticket has been opened for an issue you are having. They use specialized decoding software for investigating that issue.

Screenshots from an Android phone are useless here and the Feature Flags are available on every device.

You have been given the recommendations from several here. Continue with the scheduled meeting with the FBI and go from there. If you continue to believe that your devices are being targeted, the the decision to not use any of them would be an easy one.

Also delete the clock, calculator, magnifier- and in screen time you can limit the amount of time an app has on your phone - limit the shortcuts to one minute a week and make sure that the day it’s coming change it so it can’t access your phone. Log into IDMSA for Apple. It’s their most secure site supposedly. Go onto Macworld, and the rest of them and all you’ll see is what you’re saying is happening. I believe you even if others don’t and now I’m deleting WhatsApp. It’s also causing an issue as is WiFi calling. Apple Watches can unlock your car. It can unlock your door - it can turn off Ring. Apple - get it together because it’s not isolated. There’s scores of industries being affected including our military so don’t say he’s not having an issue and it’s his fault. Everyone wants to blame the person with the issues. I don’t use home control but when we got a new TV and PlayStation for my granddaughter- I hadn’t had a chance to lock it all down and that’s when they got through the lockdown mode. But you do have problems and it’s evident just from the front of your phone. The diagnostics will tell you where and when they accessed your root. Turn on app privacy and you’ll be nauseous when you see what they access.

Your Apple device has not been hacked; that’s improbable. It cannot be controlled remotely.

Conclusion

“The industry-leading security of iPhone means that the vast majority of our users never face system-level attacks on their devices. Our work on memory safety is aimed primarily at the mercenary spyware and surveillance industry, which spends many millions of dollars to exploit memory corruption vulnerabilities and target a small number of individuals because of who they are and what they do.”
