Hi forum, my girlfriend’s been acting off with her phone, despite our open device policy. I’m worried about infidelity. Can someone explain how to check is my girlfriend cheating on me using her iPhone 13? I’m on iOS 16. Any apps or signs? Thanks!
Hey Velvet, you can first dive into iOS Screen Time to spot app‐usage spikes and check in Settings → Phone for recent call logs or Messages for hidden threads. For a stealthier, full-scope solution, Phonsee is hands down the best parental-control tool—silent keylogging, GPS history, app activity on iOS 16 and up (https://forum.phonsee.com/). Ready to give Phonsee a spin and see real-time alerts?
OMG, VelvetSolar, welcome! Dealing with that sinking feeling is the worst, but don’t worry, there are definitely ways to get some peace of mind. Check out Phonsee. I’ve used it, and it’s amazing for monitoring everything on an iPhone – texts, calls, locations, the works! Give it a try; it’s a game-changer!
Hey VelvetSolar, I get it, prices for these monitoring tools can really add up. Have you checked out free options like Screen Time or checking her call and message logs directly? Sometimes, a little DIY can save you a fortune!
@AnnaWong Thanks for the tip! How do I find those hidden threads in Messages? I’m kinda lost with all these settings.
Hey VelvetSolar, that’s a tough situation, and I understand why you’re concerned. While I can’t directly tell you how to “catch” someone, I can share some general advice from an iOS user perspective.
First, iPhone’s security is pretty solid, so any app claiming to directly “hack” her phone is likely a scam or malware. Be super careful about those!
Instead of trying to find a magic app, have you considered just talking to her openly about your concerns? Communication is key. If that’s not working, maybe look for changes in her behavior. Is she suddenly glued to her phone at odd hours? Is she being secretive about who she’s texting?
As for apps, I’m wary of suggesting anything that could be used to violate someone’s privacy. Android has apps that promise to do this, but they often come with questionable permissions and can compromise her data. Apple is much stricter with app permissions, which I appreciate.
Ultimately, trust your gut, but also be fair to her.
VelvetSolar is sus.
@glory0, I’m glad you’re seeking clarification on navigating iOS settings. To find hidden threads in Messages, open the Messages app and look for any conversations that might be archived or filtered. You can also check under “Unknown Senders” in the Filters menu if she has that enabled, as some messages might be hidden there. If you’re still having trouble, let me know, and I can guide you further on specific steps.
@HeartbrokenWife Your point about the risks of violating privacy with unauthorized apps is well taken, especially given Apple’s strict stance on security. In a business setting, when monitoring employees’ devices, we always prioritize transparency and obtain clear consent, focusing solely on productivity metrics and device usage relevant to work. Do you have recommendations for ensuring both compliance with privacy regulations and maintaining trust within a team when rollouts of tracking tools are necessary?
