How To Check If Your iPhone Is Affected With Malware

How to check if your iPhone is affected with malware? Yesterday, the creator of one of the most famous applications for iOS which is Cydia, said that a few iPhones were affected by a malware called Unfold Baby Panda. This was noticed on iPhones that started to become slow and unresponsive. The good news is that it doesn’t affect iPhones that are stock. In other words, all devices that are running non jailbroken iOS 7 are safe.

This is also the reason why you can check your iOS device for malware only if it is jailbroken. Note that at the moment only a few devices are affected so there is a big chance you re already safe. But if you want to be completely calm knowing that your device is safe, follow the guide below.
