How do i know if there's spyware on ipad installed by my ex?

My data usage has spiked and the battery is constantly draining ever since my ex had it for the weekend. Is there a simple way to find hidden apps or profiles that shouldn’t be running?

Those symptoms (battery drain + data spike) are legit red flags worth checking out. Go to Settings > General > VPN & Device Management - if there’s any profile in there you didn’t install yourself, that’s your smoking gun and you can delete it right there.

Also peek at Settings > Privacy & Security > Location Services to see what’s quietly running in the background 24/7.
