Can an iPhone get infected by a virus/malware/spyware from Windows when syncing?

No. I wouldn't think so. I don't think it's even possible to get a virus on a phone, but in case it is, I doubt you would get it. Apple products are really good as far as technology goes.

Yes of course…

Nope. They're two different operating systems. If it was a surface tablet then it would.

No. Windows viruses/malware exploit weaknesses in the Windows operating system. No other system will be affected by them as they do not have such weaknesses.

  • I suspect spyware or malware on my iPhone? If I did a factory reset and erase all content and settings would that get rid of any potential spyware or malware on my iPhone. I've been trying to find an answer on the internet but the only abnoxious answer I get is, "IPhone can't get viruses." With out any reason as to why iPhones can't get viruses. I also read somewhere that IPhones can indeed get viruses so if I did get one of some sort how could I get rid of it?
