As the Michael Cohen case reminded us, the intent of these messaging systems
is to make it harder to sniff the communications as they are being
transmitted. But if someone gets access to either the sending or receiving
device, the secrecy is over. 
Am I oversimplifying that?

Use it communicate with others.... if they're on WhatsApp.

Or if you instead need a secure SMS/MMS channel, delete WhatsApp and put
Signal on your phone.
