A virus in my iPhone can read my banking app?

If a virus is in my iPhone, can it will get information from my banking app when I’m using?

"Hi, I just opened an email that was saying there was a class action a company with or against Apple and to respond ......but suddenly the email disappeared and couldn’t find it........so I get worried.......I just read it only"

It's a scam. Being that Apple is reportedly involved, forward it to Apple at reportphishing@apple.com. Did you reply? If not, then you are all set from here. Then, delete the eMail, and remove it from your Trash and Archive folders. If you did reply, then...

Modify your Credentials:

If you are concerned about you account information being compromised, then by all means modify your credentials. You are able to log into these forums just fine. So, log into iCloud, and modify your credentials, starting with a new, strong password and using a new eMail address (for Apple).

Managing Passwords:

With unexpected changes, someone may have you password, through a full-assumption, on my part. So, change your eMail account's password. Also, ask your eMail provider if they offer the service of an App Password. For example, here is how App Passwords are used for Gmail: Sign in using app passwords - Gmail Help

Hi, I read it using app passwords on Gmail Help ...but the email I’m using for email..and registed my devices with Apple Store is with yahoo....can J connect it with Gmail service ? When I started using email...... AOL and Yahoo were the big guys then... My account with Apple is the yahoo...... email, I don’t know if it is easy to change that now.
