You should reset your phone to factory settings if you no longer trust it. This method is effective against common spy apps from the app store that may be hiding on your device.

More information

This method usually removes unwanted spying or stalking apps from your phone. These apps may have been installed by people close to you when they had direct access to your device. Please be aware that these apps are not comparable to professional state trojans, which can potentially be reinstalled remotely even after resetting your phone. Nevertheless, this option is a good start to get out of toxic relationships or to prevent stalking. Please back up your most important data before resetting.
