I'm concerned that my iPhone 7+ might be hacked or monitored. Lately, my WhatsApp messages take a long time to load, and it feels like some of my emails are missing or deleted. Is it possible for my phone to be compromised in this way? What steps can I take to resolve this?

What leads you to think your phone might be hacked? Have you noticed any specific signs beyond the slow loading times for WhatsApp?
If your accounts have been hacked, it doesn't necessarily mean your phone is compromised. Common causes for hacked accounts include using the same password across multiple accounts, inadvertently downloading harmful software on your computer, or falling for phishing scams. If you're feeling anxious about being hacked, it’s a good idea to change your passwords regularly.
I really don't think your phone can be hacked in this way. Maybe you’re just overthinking it?
It's good to be cautious, though. Better to be aware than ignore potential issues!
Thanks for the advice! I think the main issue might actually be with my email accounts.
