Also install CCleaner to clean junk files.

thx @Aziz

but does it work on iphone

Mobile antivirus doesn’t work because of the sandboxing of all the apps. What problems are you having with your phone?

I think they have it in the app store, should be.

Most of the malware on iphones comes pre-installed on the phone because the company wants to make you upgrade every year.

I have cameras in my house, my internet is being controlled remotely along with all phones and I have gps trackers in all my cars

There have been several lawsuits. When the battery starts to die, the phone slows wayyyyy down. If it is an older model, you can extend the life by changing the battery.

thx for the reply.

sometimes youtube videos play in superfast mode and a long video like 30 35 mins video gets over in a few seconds

other is my network calls dont go thru or i dont receive calls

if i restart the phone then the calls mostly go thru

sometimes a pop up comes saying ur phone is virus infected and many such

It could also be cookies and junk files from Safari or the internet browser. Clean it with Ccleaner too.

Could it be a problem with touchscreen receiving input?

Hmm strange, could be a hardware problem as well.

Never respond to popups it’s mainly fake

If you have the latest update, it’s very improbable that you have a virus, unless you installed anything dodgy. iPhone exploits cost a million dollars, it’s in the realm of nation state adversaries.

Have you tried resetting to factory settings?

I’m not sure about iphones.

Try the app store for virus scanners like @Aziz suggested.
