False. You don't know what you're talking about.

I have the same application on my phone and I have been stalked, harassed, threatened. Is there anyway to remove this from my phone?

Wha application? Any app was installed by you through the App Store.

Please stop. You don't know what you're talking about.

Nope. That's simply not happening.

Paranoia is a dangerous thing.

Okaypinnochio, your post was very well worded and on point. EVERY time one of us non-programmer type people comes here and expresses concern about our phones being compromised/duplicated/hacked/etc/etc, a slew of programmer types immediately respond by stating emphatically that our phone has not & could not be comp/dup/hack/etc.

Of course devices can be hacked. Older devices iPhone X and earlier have known exploits; A7 through A11 processors, for one of the more common.

Now we have a two paths of discussion.

Is any particular iPhone remotely hacked? Possible, but probably not. That’s not applicable here, either.

Is an older iPhone subject to local attacks? Yes.

If you are a target of either these, can anybody here help with that? Nope.

I know for a fact my iphone was snatched and a dupe program was installed on it, then 48 hours later my 'missing' phone re-appeared on my bed pillow. Yeah, I looked there for it. Right after i found my phone, I was driving and a text popped into my phone that wascwritten to the person that had snatched, duped and then returned my phone. The kid who sent the msg did not know tgis snatchduper and had no idea his text would be received by me also.

How do i delete this malware off of my phone?

thanks

Given your private space is somehow not private and your gear insecure, given your passcode is known, and your Apple Account is known, and given persistence is trivial with cameras and microphones and more “black bag” operations, you will want to focus on attempts to secure your space and your gear here. This might be locked boxes, adding your own cameras or alarms from simple to advanced, or otherwise.

You’ll want to discuss this with police if that’s an option, and steps to secure your devices while asleep or not under your control, newer devices or simpler devices, switch to eSIM, and to collect evidence of the access i to your private spaces and equipment. And resolve the complete credentials compromise.

None of which is going to happen around here.
