Finding security toolkits that work in a meaningful way on the iPhone is a bit like looking for a needle in a thousand haystacks. Apple has made it nigh on impossible for such apps to make it into the App Store, with rules regarding scanning of other apps and data front and center of the brick wall it has erected. So, is one new app the security needle that you've been looking for? If you're running iOS 12 or higher, the answer could be a reserved yes: iVerify reckons it can tell if your iPhone has been hacked.
There are no iPhone anti-virus apps in the App Store
There's a reason that there are no "proper" anti-virus apps in the Apple App Store because Apple bans them. Apple engineered the iOS platform with security at its core; it says so itself and users are meant just to accept that. In fairness, iOS is a pretty secure platform, and the iPhone doesn't suffer anywhere near as many security issues as Android smartphones as a result. Not that iPhones are immune from security and privacy problems, as the recent 1.1 billion eGobbler badverts attack illustrated.
