This is very worrying @adamtemp64. Apparently the 'most sophisticated spyware package seen' according to the security company Lookout. I suspect only a select group of people would be targeted though?

Hi guys as @adamtemp64 says, please be aware.

iOS 9.3.5 is now available and is an important security update. Please update your device to 9.3.5 if you can.
