Suspicious iPhone 18.1.1 update behavior and App Store issues

I phone seems hacked. No access to apple. ID or cloud. Settings constantly changed and App Store is weird. Believe they may have got me when loaded 18.1.1 although I was suspicious of phone before downloading update.

Here is analytics data

No one on here will be able to find anything useful in the data you shared. It’s highly unlikely that you are hacked especially with any relation to the iOS update but have you contacted Apple Support directly about whatever issues you are having? When you say no access to Apple ID or iCloud…what exactly happens? Error messages? What settings are changed? (And what about those settings makes you think hacked since I would think that if someone went through the trouble to hack you as an individual they would do something far more useful than change most settings). If you’re seeking help even on this forum the more details you give about your actual issues the better.

I have the same. I have confirmed bad actors installed Trojan. Look for changes in Shortcut. Accessibility. Focus and screen time. Even apple support gets redirected to legit looking copies of app. Lockdown mode helps but not with everything. Devices are controlled at the root level and hard resets won’t remove issues. I reset 15 times just to see. Nada. And of course someone always says no one will find anything. A bit naive in today’s world. Good luck.
