00:00 Intro: Ways to check for viruses on iPhone
How to check for viruses on iPhone? A lot of people think iPhones can’t get viruses. But actually, they can.
00:09 How to remove viruses and malware from your iPhone
Here are some ways to check if your iPhone is infected and how to help keep it virus-free.
00:13 Is your iPhone hiding apps?
See if your iPhone is hiding apps that contain malware. Start by swiping through your home screens. If you find an unfamiliar app, check for it in the App Store. If it’s not there, the app could be from a sketchy source. Remove it by holding down the app icon, selecting ‘Remove App’ and tapping ‘Delete App’.
00:29 Review your data usage
Review your data usage, because malware can cause a suspicious spike.  To check, go to 'Settings' and tap 'Cellular'. Scroll through the apps to see if one is using lots of data. If you don’t recognize the app, consider deleting it.
00:42 Monitor your battery life
Monitor your battery life. Screen brightness or background apps can drain your battery, but so can viruses. To check, go to 'Settings' and tap 'Battery'. Look for apps using lots of energy. Spot something suspicious? Consider deleting that app, too.
00:55 Check performance
Check performance. If your iPhone seems sluggish, feels hot, or apps are crashing a lot, do a quick restart. If that doesn’t fix the problem, it could be a virus.
01:06 Excessive pop-up ads
Look out for excessive pop-up ads. Some pop-ups, like fake virus alerts, can cause real problems. If it seems like you’re getting a lot more, your iPhone could be infected with a virus. Using an ad-blocker or trusted antivirus tool can help.
01:21 Jailbreaking
Then there’s jailbreaking. iPhones have built-in restrictions to keep their operating system closed. Opening them to use non-App Store apps is called jailbreaking and can leave your iPhone more vulnerable. Look for apps like ‘Cydia’ which only appear on jailbroken devices or check for missing default apps like Safari. If you suspect jailbreaking, first back up your data then restore your device’s factory settings.
