Worried - hacked iphone? App installed without permission

Hello

I've recently updated iphone 5 s 6 s + & bought apple tv 4. I installed apple tv 4 last night using my new iphone. This morning I discovered a new application had been installed on my iphone, now called "KORTV" - before anyone else says it's the Korean TV application, the symbol do not look like the KORTV app you can find in the app store, and when you open it, it comes to show a lot of computer language - I'm not at all least bit computer , so I have no idea what that meant. I deleted, but is now, I had taken at least a screenshot.

In fact, my question is - my iphone has been hacked? If so, what should I do? If I have restore factory settings will be able to simply do it again?

In order to provide more information, I have a shared family account set up with my wife, who's made phone do not have the same application installed on the phone

In addition, I can't find the same "KORTV" app in the app store - at least with the same symbol of the app - it was more like portfolio (in terms of colors), and not obviously Korean image of the KORTV shown in app store app

The App in question is not in the section "purchase" in the app store

Basically, I googled a number of different forums and the general opinion seems to be if the phone is in your physical possession & no password was reported while everything should be good. But I know that this application has not been installed by me, so I know it must be answer somewhere.

If it happens again, I'll reply to this thread with a screenshot.

Any kind, helpful comments would be appreciated v

Thanks in advance

Hello

Same thing happened for me, last night I had to reset my iPhone 6 and noticed an application called KORTV with the icon that looks like the old icon of portfolio. I opened it and there is a + button on the right and when I click it, it creates a text whose date and numbers, when I click on it nothing happens, but I am able to delete the text. I have no idea what it is and like you I searched on the app store and could not find, I searched google and only came with a link to your post here.

I have a hunch we have been hacked, I turned off my Wifi and Mobile Data just in case.

  • How can I REMOVE an update installed without permission?

    FF, updated even though I had ticked the box that says 'never check updates.' I had version 17, now I'm on version 18. This update is not yet listed in the history of the update, but now Hulu does not work and I get a message that says that my Flash drive needs to be updated. I will not even enter the countless reasons why I NEVER do that! I despise Adobe! I finally found a version of their player who is not screw up every five minutes and now Firfox saw it all!

    What is the problem? It's frustration level Microsnot!

    I do not use Windows at the present time. Not sure if Firefox did not update a option now. Personally I would not downgrade to version 17 it is not secure and does not have the latest patches. If you wish to make in order to follow the link in this article. Install an older version of Firefox

    A better option

    Use the ESR version, at least it is safe and will use Fx17 soon.

    If you do not need updates to block there are possible ways (but not necessarily on the ESR) it is to get rid of the address update string.

    If you select the download updates but let me choose... option, no update will install without your approval. Suppose an update will require a reboot and does not approve the installation of an update until & unless you are ready to restart.

    You can change the AU for the "updates but let me choose whether to download and install them" setting. Once you have done this, you will need to approve the updates are downloaded, the updates are installed and where they are installed.

    I prefer "check for updates but let me choose whether to download and install them" setting.

  • 10 Windows installed on my Dell Vostro PC 260 without permission. for 21/2 long weeksHow need to solve? 1333396024

    Worked with Win Tech Support for more than 2 weeks. Community and level 1 support my Win 7 back which included the starter kit, my pix and docs. Trying to get back to LiveMail for address book and stored files, but cannot load. In collaboration with tech level 2 which seems knowledgible, but it leaves me with unfinished session and no further communication. When I called support said he'll call back. Spent 2 days waiting for recall. Spent on 40hours tries to solve this problem. Guess the next step is the small claims court.

    Or... you could just restore backups?  Seems easier, less intensive, time.

    Not sure about the whole thing, 'Windows' 10 installed without authorization; I don't care.

    It is a public-to-peer web forum, steal.  No Microsoft support.

    Looks to me that you just need to roll-back of your facility if it is within 30 days, you realized that you do not want Windows 10.  If, for some reason, what has failed - you might just restore from your last backup recognized reliable; assuming that things on the system is sufficiently important to you before the incident that you have saved.  If, for some reason, none of these things worked for you - you would just install from scratch and update/install your applications and (hopefully) restore your personal stuff from backups (assuming that, once again, things were quite important on said system to justify save you some...)

    With regard to the whole of "Small claims court" thing; Let us know how it goes.

  • BlackBerry Smartphones downloaded app (without permission)

    I downloaded "Blurts pro" excellent app.  However, I have discovered another app that downloaded also, without any intention.  This app is "Speech-2-text messaging" apparently, it is not compatible with Blackberry.  The icon on the home screen, but do not appear under application management [wanted to delete].  How can I remove homescreen icon?

    If the app is without interfering in any way the operation of your phone and you cannot remove it from your list of Applications (which is weird), you can simply hide the icon... out of sight, out of mind.  Highlight the icon with your mouse and press the BB menu key.  Select hide.  This will hide the icon so that you can't see.  If you need it again, while on your home screen press the menu key and select Show all or show all, according to what is present.

    Regarding the removal of the application, if you can't do it in your Applications list, try to reload your OS from a backup on BlackBerry Desktop Software.  (If you have never done a backup on BDS, stop reading here.)  Open BlackBerry Desktop Software and click device at the top of the software can restore the menu drop down.  Choose the most recent restore point BEFORE you load the application and click to reload.

    I hope that helps you.

    Hi, jandianajones!

    Thank you for reaching out by Apple Support communities. From your post, I see that you want to stop your Messages to be accessible on the lock screen. I completely understand wanting to keep your conversations private and to prevent their access without your access code. I'd be happy to help you to know what options you have!

    For added convenience, app Notifications have a setting that allows them to be seen and interacted with on your lock screen. It is a setting entirely optional and can be disabled for individual applications under settings > Notifications. Tap the application that you want to adjust (in your case, Messages) and toggle the "Show on lock screen" switch in the off position. You can still receive alert sounds when a message arrives through to be notified, you have received one, but it will not appear on your lock screen. To view, unlock your iPhone and go directly to the Messages app.

    More information on Notifications, including how they work and what options you have with them, can be found here: Use of Notifications on iPhone, iPad and iPod touch

    See you soon!

  • Do I need a Mac Mini with high-specs to efficiently program an Iphone app?

    Hello world!

    I currently have a PC and am on a budget.

    What I want to do however, is program/create an iphone app and came to the conclusion that the hanging of a mac mini to my pc is the most cost-effective way to do.

    However, I'm not sure what level of specification is necessary for programming the OS. I've never programmed before, so have a very limited knowledge.

    Could I get smooth with a more/less expensive model on 2 GB of ram? Or I will require probably one with superior specs?

    The app is a bit complex.

    Thanks a lot if you take the time to answer

    Sincerely,

    Tommy

    I use a Mac mini (end 2012) with the latest version of El Capitan and feel no bottlenecks.

    My advice would be to buy as much built-in RAM as you can afford (16 GB + if possible), rather than worry about the speed of the processor.

  • That is apple music app install content and why it won't recognize my Apple ID and password?

    That is Apple music app install content and why it won't recognize my Apple Id and password? It aims to prevent the battery I recorded on my iPhone being recognized on GarageBand on my Mac.

    My guess is that you see an authentication dialog window requesting Admin username and password on your computer, because he wants to install files on your system (such as GarageBand/logic sounds) directory. This has nothing to do with your Apple ID that allows you to buy apps from the App Store.

    Looking for something like this window?

    Hope that helps
