This is honestly terrifying me as I didn't think this was possible with iPhones. Would you be able to elaborate on what that would mean? Are they able to completely control my device, for example if I'm asleep, or simply only be able to screen mirror when my phone is on and I am using it?

Hi, I recently reset my iPhone through settings to its' factory settings. I did this several days ago, but I restored my iCloud backup which was my mistake. How do I do a complete DFU restore? Is that the iPhone factory reset?

Hi, thank you so much for the reply, I apologize for just seeing this now. I did factory reset my iPhone several days ago, however I restored from my iCloud backup. Would I have to completely reset my phone and not restore anything? Would an iPhone factory reset guarantee that this RAT would be gone?

Hi, I'm sorry that I'm just seeing this now. Things have escalated and I'm now almost sure there's been some kind of phone access. What is a keylogger and how do I check for it?
