I had not been hacked, but had become victim of some weird and repetitive Apple ID bug.

Here are four steps which should squish that bug: Symptom Your iPhone is continuously requesting your login details and password.

Visit the iCloud system status page and check all available services are marked with a green icon, take particular note of Apple ID, iCloud Account Sign In, iMessage, iTunes.

If there are service problems then you may want to wait for Apple to fix them, in case that resolves your problem.

Reset device The first approach is to switch your iOS device off and switch it on again.

If not then you should visit appleid.apple.com, choose Reset your password and follow the instructions to reset the password on your account.

You will also find iMessage, FaceTime, iCloud, iTunes and other password-protected services will demand the password, but once youve got all these services active again the problem will hopefully stop.

Restore device In the event the problem persists there is one more thing you can do, but you need a Mac or PC running iTunes to do it as you cant do this using iCloud.

When restoring the device use the Backup you just created and when the process completes the device should no longer make constant requests for your Apple ID.
