A woman has revealed sneaky phone tricks to check whether your partner is cheating. Inspired by Alex Cooper’s Call Her Daddy podcast, where she reveals she has gone through her man's phone a handful of times in her life', columnist Jana Hocking asked her closest friends if they had ever been tempted to snoop or feel the need to hi-jack or hack their partner's phone.
With some surprising answers, she has since revealed the tried and tested tricks that led to many of them finding out about their partners ‘dirty little secrets.’ She told how one friend, pre-face ID, filmed her boyfriend every time he picked up his phone and entered his password, studying the videos to figure out what letters he was pressing, before hacking her way in to check his phone.
Another friend simply typed in her partner’s ex-girlfriend’s name, gaining immediate access to his phone (he eventually left her to return to his ex). She also told of a friend who, when she moved in with her boyfriend, asked him to put in his apple ID on their Apple TV, accidentally ticking the box that allowed the TV full access to all of his photos on his iCloud account. She then told how her friend spent an afternoon going through all of his pictures, including the screenshots of revealing images from the co-worker he was sleeping with.

Another friend revealed her (now ex) boyfriend once left his Apple Watch at home when he went to work, and when she heard it ping with a text, read a very explicit text from the woman he was cheating on her with. Another friend simply typed in her partner's date of birth to gain access, before discovering his porn preferences once she did.

And with most people using the same password for all of their accounts, she advises that if you simply have to hack into your partner’s phone, you just need to ask them if you can borrow their Netflix (or other streaming service) account. With their password usually given without a second thought, it appears that more often than not, it will be the same password they use for their laptops, emails, and phones.
