iOS and iPadOS devices are not designed to be multi-user devices, but are instead intended to be used by a single user. As such, for a single user, all your Apps, data and messages are protected by TouchID/FaceID or device passcode.


If you share your device with other users - and they have access to your device passcode - then yes, you have a privacy problem.
