Are encrypted apps like Tigertext messaging hackable?

I was wondering if encrypted apps like Tigertext messaging hackable? I mean if somebody wanted to hack the phone, could they read the encrypted messages on it?

Tigertext is HIPAA compliant, does that make it more secure?

We are thinking of using their API for an app I am looking to develop. I looked on their API site http://www.tigertext.com/developers/ but I couldn’t find anything about this.

How to View and Reply to Text Messages from Android Phone in Your Phone app on Windows 10 PC


After you send text messages from your Android phone on your PC.

Your Phone is an app that runs on your PC. It is preinstalled in Windows 10 October 2018 Update (Version 1809) and it's available to download in Windows 10 April 2018 Update (Version 1803).

To minimize network bandwidth and maximize performance, the Your Phone app only shows text messages that you've received or sent within the last 30 days.

The Your Phone app supports messages sent via SMS (Short Message Service). It also supports MMS (Multimedia Messaging Service) group messaging, but does not yet support media attachments (such as photos or videos).

The Your Phone app does not support messages sent via RCS (Rich Communication Services). Some mobile operators refer to RCS as "push messages," "chat features," "advanced messaging," or "RCS messages."
