Are messages private?

[AC Question]

Is it possible for someone to tap into your Whatsapp account and read your personal text messages? I know this can be done with other texting apps, all you need is the person's phone number. I am concerned that someone is reading me personal messages to another person.

Welcome to the forums. Anything is possible. I don't use Whatsapp, but if you can change the login credentials, that would be a good place to start.

You may also want to enable 2 Step verification. https://www.whatsapp.com/faq/en/general/26000021
