How To Check iPhone for Viruses and Malware and Remove Them

Рет қаралды 585,620

Күн бұрын

Let me show you how to check your iPhone for viruses, malware, or spam.
Once you do a scan and search, you can easily remove viruses or malware from your iPhone.
I should mention that this is very rare, but it’s better to be safe than sorry.
Let’s begin by clearing history and website data in your iPhone settings.
Then, check your battery usage and see if any apps are using an unusual amount of batteries. If so, delete and reinstall the app and just remove it permanently.
Update any app that has an update available.
Finally, a common issue related to malware is with calendar subscriptions. But you can remove these from the calendar application.
You can also check your iPhone usage and see if there is a lot of memory being used. This is not related to viruses or malware but may explain why your iPhone is acting a certain way.

Now, I'm kinda worried since I'm still in the ios 14. Like i said, I'm an ipad noob. Should i get worried about possible viruses or malwares?

So in the begging that you were talking about the think that says u have a virus it said I had 42 virus’s and I needed to delete now so it said install app so when I hit install it didn’t do anything so I thought I installed a virus because it didn’t do anything when I hit install what do you think

@lisaramos1338 2 жыл бұрын

Usually those viruses are just a way for you to download an app ur phone doesn’t have 42 viruses It’s very rare to get a virus if u have an iPhone but u should delete the app and if you want to take extra precaution restart your phone.

That happens to me when I clear my tabs after I’m on phub. There’s always another tab saying virus detected or your iPhone has been hacked. I’ve always been told it’s really hard to get a virus on an iPhone. But I be wondering if that tab is actually right or if it’s just trying to get me to go to a bad website.
