How can I find out if my Iphone has been jailbroken?!, I think my ex has installed spyware to spy on me, an I have red that the iphone has to be jb for spyware to work. Can anybody help me?
iPhone 4S, iOS 7.0.4
That woman had a legitimate question, and you act snobby like there aren't apps or developers out there that have come up with ways to infiltrate our iPhones. You should be ashamed of yourself for not giving a professional answer and relaying her to some domestic abuse hotline.
Here we are in 2017, and hacking IS a thing, Apple Support, all the way up to the White House. I am appalled at the answers given in this thread.
Miss Magic had legitimate questions about her phone's security issue, and this thread blew her off.
Following up on leads to possible security breaches is the ENTIRE name of the game, folks.
I hope future threads in Apple Support Community will take it more seriously when an Apple User writes in for support.
There will be an app called cydia
Can it be hidden som how? I have installed Battery doctor and its says I have an app called inbox pro running and its taking up alot of my battery. But I haven´t installed that app, and its nowhere to be found on the Iphone.
Do a clean restore of your phone. Put it in DFU mode and restore. That way you can start clean fresh and not worry about anything that was left behind.
When you modify the phone through tweaks in Cydia its possible to hide apps.
Inbox pro isn't a jailbreak app, but if you are concerned, people put developer names on apps, the app could be called "angry birds" on the App Store but in the developer console it's could be "happy fish" I can be anything so just delete a few apps and keep checking if that "inbox pro" goes away
Thank u so kindly for youre reply. But I wonder if theres any app from appstore which can detect jb and spyware? i would really like to know if he really did spy on me before I restore the Iphone.
Trust me, the chance he was spying on you is very minimal unless he is officiated with the government and has access to software that can read incoming text messages, and no, there are no apps
But I have read on internet that theres alot of spy ware programs such as mspy stealthmode and many more theres even one on app store called spy tools and cheating spouse info kit, so im not beeing paranoid.

If you intend to use information from a different source, then do so. We're not here to verify or refute what is on other websites.
I thougt this was a site to help people with there Apple products, and thats what Im asking for, help to find out if some one hacked in to my Apple product, and by searching the internet I have found that it is possible to do that whit out beeing a high profiles gorvermant official. Thanks

You've been given help and you responded with counterpoint. Either accept the suggestions or don't. Discussion forums reside elswhere.
You're welcome for nothing.
You didnt give any help at all, but false sence ot security. You said it not a possibility for me to be spy on if my ex wasnt some kind of FBI, and that simply not true, and what I wanted help with eas if there was any way to detect hidden spy ware on my APPLE IPHONE.
Scroll up. You were advised to do a clean restore on your iPhone.
NPR just ran a story today on how abusers use smartphones to stalk and control domestic abuse victims,
Check out the story at National Public Radio: http://www.npr.org/blogs/alltechconsidered/2014/09/15/346149979/smartphones-are- used-to-stalk-control-domestic-abuse-victims.
Bottom line: trust your gut and if you think you are being stalked like this or if you think an ex knows too much, then you should turn off your phone and go somewhere safe until you can get some help. You could try the National Domestic Violence Hotline at 1-800-799-7233 .
I hope the snark I see in some earlier comments as unhelpful to the specific (and serious) question asked.
Good luck, miss magik.
