Someone is monitoring my google search history, google maps history, text chats, certain apps such as door dash and reporting all their findings to my wife via an anonymous number. I’m not doing anything suspicious or illegal but I don’t know why they feel the need to notify my wife through an anonymous number of all my phone activities. I have Norton and mcafeee installed . Is there a Better way to detect spyware on my phone or is there something else on my phone?
Simple. Factory reset your phone. I do not care if you have 500 baby pictures of your children on there. Just do a backup then factory reset. Keep your cell phone as basic as possible for a while. Keep phone with you at all times no matter what.
Next use a passcode to get into your phone use a 8 digit and not a 4 digit passcode.
Good impossible numbers to use is sometimes we remember a phone number from your childhood that other loved ones would not know about.
But now I would assume other things but that is not my place and only concern is data safety.
After you have done the above next step if you use a pc at work reset all your account passwords. Resetting passwords at home just means the home pc has a keylogger and defeats the attempt of resetting passwords.
After doing the above you can slow add back all the apps on the phone you use.
Good precautions but for the last part also check for physical keylogger on your PC at home, no point changing passwd at work and coming home typing the same pwd regardless.
