1

Verify Safety Numbers

Compare safety numbers with your contact in person or through a separate trusted channel. If numbers match, no man-in-the-middle exists. This is the most definitive way to verify that interception is not occurring.

2

Watch for Key Change Alerts

WeTalkin notifies you when a contact's encryption keys change. While usually innocent (new device), unexpected key changes warrant re-verification. Always verify before continuing sensitive conversations after a key change.

3

Check Encryption Indicators

Every WeTalkin conversation shows an encryption lock icon. If this indicator ever disappears or changes, stop communicating and investigate. On WeTalkin, encryption is always on — any change is a red flag.

4

Review Linked Devices

Check Settings > Linked Devices regularly. An unfamiliar linked device could indicate account compromise. Remove any devices you do not recognize immediately and change your password.

5

Use Network Security

For additional protection against network-level monitoring, use WeTalkin over a VPN. While E2EE protects message content, a VPN hides the fact that you are communicating through WeTalkin from network observers.

Frequently Asked Questions

Can WeTalkin messages be intercepted?

With properly verified E2EE, message content cannot be intercepted. The only theoretical attack vector is a man-in-the-middle during initial key exchange — which safety number verification detects. Once verified, interception of message content is computationally infeasible.

What should I do if I suspect interception?

Re-verify safety numbers with your contact through a separate channel. Check your linked devices for unauthorized access. Change your password and enable 2FA if not already active. If concerns persist, create a new account on a clean device.

Does WeTalkin notify me of security issues?

Yes. WeTalkin sends security notifications for key changes, new device links, and suspicious login attempts. Enable all security notifications in Settings > Privacy for comprehensive awareness.
