Can Your iPhone Get A Virus?
Can iPhones get viruses?
Yes, it's possible, but it's not as common as on a computer/laptop.
It's possible. Most of the time any virus on any smart phone will come via an APP you download.
Yes, especially if jailbroken.
It is exceedingly unlikely that Apple would allow an infectious app into the App Store.
- Is it possible to get computer virus on your iPhone if you use it to surf the net? What is the best way to get rid of computer virus on your cell phone? Would it be possible to install a miniature version of Malwarebytes onto iPhone to quarantine/delete computer virus?
- Is it hard to get a virus on your iPhone? My mate uses online banking on his iPhone so he was just wondering how "secure" he is using it. He only watches anime on his phone and twitch streams that's it, he used to use different anime sites but now he sticks to 1. Is it possible he could have gained a virus simply from visiting a site, or is it very hard to get a virus on iPhone?
- If an iPhone somehow got a virus, what would stop that virus from spreading to the recovery image? If an iPhone got a virus, couldn't it just spread to the recovery image? I don't mean where you connect the iPhone to your computer and restore through iTunes. I mean the restore image that is actually on the iPhone.
- I have a iPhone and my safari froze when a pop up asked me to call this number to get rid of a virus so I don't know if I have a virus or no? So today I was looking for music online and this pop up came up and froze my browser and it asked me to call this number but I didn't and hit cancel and cleared my history and I restarted my phone cause it acted slow so I don't know if I have a virus or not
