My iPhone may have been hacked. I went to a website that when a screen appeared it said I was hacked. Don’t know what to believe, but I want to be safe about it even if it wasn’t. I cleared my browsing cookies. Or rather data browsing history. What else should I do?

The message was probably a lie – intended to get you to panic, and in your panic, to contact the criminals who sent you the message for "help". At which point they would help themselves to your money, or to information they could use to scam you (identity fraud) at a later date.

What's that supposed to be "proof" of?
That the phone keeps extremely verbose logs of what is probably some very ordinary, harmless activity? Logs that are verbose so that if an engineer did have to diagnose some obscure problem or bug, they could – with a great deal of effort – get some idea of what was going on at the time that it happened?
99.9% of the time, messages like this are scams that are trying to trick you into believing there is something wrong with your phone and you need to buy their useless software to fix a problem that does not exist.
It is spam. Do not divulge any personal info when prompted. Restart the device, that's it.

Analytics is completely useless unless you have the special software required to decode the data and the special training required to interpret the results.
