Can someone spy on my iPhone 16 Pro texts and emails without my consent?

Yeah, it’s possible, but only if they’ve gotten into something like your Apple ID, email account, or a device you’re synced with. iPhones don’t just let people spy on your texts out of nowhere, so if someone was seeing your stuff there’d almost always be some kind of account access behind it.

If you’re worried, change your Apple ID and email passwords from a device no one else has used. For extra peace of mind you can run a quick scan with something like Certo Antispy. I used it once when I had a concern, its not free but it helped me relax a bit.

Well, it all depends on how you have handled the security of your Apple Account name, its password, your iPhone and its passcode. If you are the only person to have ever used your Apple Account, you are the only person knowing its password, nobody else knows your iPhone passcode, and nobody else has ever used your iPhone (with the possible exception of a previous owner who then thoroughly cleansed the iPhone before you got it), then you’re safe.

Regarding emails, similar conditions exist. You must be the only one ever to use that email address and the only one knowing its password.

Similar conditions exist for your mobile telephone number.

Original Title: Spying on my phone

No. iPhones can't be hacked. Now, if you're extremely important on the word stage, like a King, Senator, CEO of a Multi$billion dollar corporation and someone has unlimited money, it's possible, yet still hugely unlikely. Now, if you handed your phone to someone and they had the time to install something on your phone knowing your login credentials, that would be completely different.

People shouldn't be able to get at the e-mails on your iPhone and on your e-mail provider's servers, but I'm not sure if there are any special protections for e-mall in transit. It might theoretically be vulnerable to being intercepted and to being read like a postcard. We also know that spammers and scammers send e-mails with addresses whch, from an end-user perspective, are cleverly disguised, quite often.

This is why a lot of banks, doctors, and medical facilities will not send information in e-mail. Instead, they will send you notices that there is new information on their Web sites or in their secure portals, and that to see it, you should log in there.

As for e-mail spam from the local grocery store with this week's ads, no crooks can usually be bothered to tamper with it. There just isn't any profit motive for them to do so.
