End-to-end encryption
With watchOS, iOS, and iPadOS, your messages are encrypted on your device so they can't be accessed without your passcode. iMessage and FaceTime are designed so that there's no way for Apple to read your messages when they're in transit between devices.
If someone logs into your Apple ID on the web, they can't see or send your iMessages. However, if on an Apple device, they can. All iMessages you send and receive, through either your Apple ID or phone number, past and future, will be viewed on another device once someone logs into your Apple ID.
Using iCloud Backup
All iPhones have iCloud enabled by default, so all of their data (including text messages) is automatically backed up every night at midnight. All you need to do is log into their iCloud account and access the backup files directly.
That's because the texts are being sent to an ID that is listed as an iMessage receive ID on both devices. See Settings > Messages > Send & Receive > You can be reached by iMessage at: Correct this so each device has a unique ID.
When you set up iCloud for Messages, your messages are stored in the cloud instead of locally on your device. You can see them on any device that's set up for iCloud and Messages, including your iPhone, iPad, iPod touch, and Mac.

Nobody can gain access to any of your iCloud information without physical access to your devices, the ability to log in with your account information at iCloud.com (for limited kinds of data) or iCloud for Windows (even more limited), or by logging in to an Apple device with your Apple ID.
How do I see who has logged into my iCloud? If you suspect someone is logged into your iCloud account from a device that does not belong to you, you should visit Apple ID. Sign in and then click Devices. You will now see all the devices logged into that iCloud account.
This happens when your Apple ID is activated with iMessage and the "Start new conversations from" setting is set to your email address instead of your phone number. To change this, simply navigate to Settings > Messages > Send & Receive and configure the settings to start new conversations from your phone number.
Do you want to free up some space in your iCloud storage by deleting old messages? If you have Messages synced, you can disable it and delete the messages from iCloud without removing them from your iPhone or iPad. If iCloud is disabled for Messages, you can remove any existing data in Settings.
If you backup or synchronize your phone to iCloud then anybody who has the details for that account, or even has their phone connected to the same account (a family member, for example), could potentially see your personal text messages.
If you turn off Messages in iCloud for one device, that device will no longer sync your Messages with your other devices. This does not mean that you cannot still receive texts on the device, but changes won't sync across devices. For instance, say you disable iCloud Messages on your iPad.

On a Samsung phone, go to Messages > Menu > Settings > Chat settings. Here, you can enable read receipts.
This caused by using the same Apple ID for iMessage on both devices. It can be resolved by either: On one of the phones go to Settings>Messages>Send & Receive, tap the ID, sign out, then sign back in with a different ID. Note: you can still share the same ID for purchasing in Settings>iTunes & App Stores; or.
