Does anyone have any information about how to stop someone from hacking every IPhone I get? Apple support can’t help me, Verizon can’t help me. They both say there’s nothing wrong with my devices but…my settings change, if I try and backup to iCloud everything gets wiped out. I recently reset my iPhone. I had just backed it up 5 days prior but when backing up before I reset my phone, the backup took like 40 minutes. When I signed back into my Apple ID I lost my facebook account again for the 3rd time since 2020. I need help, seriously. Everyone I talk to says “Apple is so secure that your iPhone isn’t hacked “ I’m sick of hearing this. It goes from one new device to the next new device and I can’t secure any 3rd party apps, my emails disappear while I’m looking at them, setting keep changing and passwords to my credit cards and banking apps keep changing and I get locked out and have to go show ID to get back into them. Any ideas how I can stop this madness.
 
What makes you think someone is hacking? Have you lost anything financially? It sounds like you’re just having some difficulty with apps rather than someone actually hacking you. If someone is hacking you, they’re going to be doing something like take your money or at least gather information from you.

You have to be pretty important like a high-level journalist or a politician for someone to hack your iPhone.
