I downloaded a suspicious app

So this number *** texted me pretending to be Amazon , I was suspicious, but my family assured me it was legit. So i downloaded anydesk, let them on my phone. And the guy was like “go to your bank account see if they took money. So I hung up, knowing it was bs. Deleted anydesk app and changed my phone id while phone was on airplane. Anything else I need to do?

What you did should fix any compromise. If you have a backup made before you downloaded anydesk, you can restore it to fully remove any remnants of anydesk.
