Ah, OK - it's not very likely someone is hacking your phone. What makes you think someone might be? Any indicators that made you think someone might be? :holmes:

All my accounts keep getting hacked, it's annoying asf

Had like 10 emails from instagram saying someone's been trying to reset my password, people got into my email addresses, amazon account and facebook.

Thank you :h:
This add popped up which looked like a virus on my laptop(it was disgusting). I was charging my phone from my laptop so it's connected together. One of my images looked like it glitched. I'm not sure if I'm overreacting.

It's just a misleading advert. Simply close the tab and never think about it again. :smile:
That used to happen to me on this website, but it went away on its own now.

download AVG and do a scan

You better not use the public network now, reset important passwords.

Unfortunately, adware is perfectly legal so although you can block them they won't damage your phone
I'm fairly sure that it is still legal as I read somewhere that some adware producers have fined anti-virus producers for blocking adware.
