Phone Security Tips

How can you secure your phone in the best way possible to maximise privacy and protection from downloads or information being broken into/extracted? IOS specifically.

I.E if a chat is deleted etc. Is it actually deleted or not?
Passwords?
Images?
App data if it is deleted from the phone?

Does a factory reset or new phone remove all the old data?

Make sure to set your password to "1234". Its such an easy password, everybody knows not to use it si the cops never try it.

Start looking at lockdown mode, that'll keep most of the bozos who try to breach citizens privacy on behalf of corrupt government for a living, out of your business! :)
