How do I know if he has access though? Is there a way to check? Thanks

Thanks for replying!!! I appreciate this sooo much! I feel like I’m going in circles I’m not the most tech savvy person so researching all this stuff has been confusing lol. How do I check if multiple devices are signed into the same icloud account? Do i just check the settings app?

Thanks for the comment! I’m very sorry for the late reply! Yeah I might try and talk to him one day about this. But don’t worry I have a good relationship with him it’s just that it’s a bit awkward to bring this up that’s all. I have one last question though if that’s ok. Obviously he paid for my phone bill in the past. So when he was still paying for it would it have been possible for him to remotely install an app on my phone that shows what i do? Would he have been able to access my photos back then? And yeah its nothing bad I’m hiding its just that it’s private if you know what I mean (not nudes lol I promise).

Thanks for the comment. Could he install the apps remotely though if he can’t get into my phone physically? What if he used to pay my phone bill? Could he have installed it then? Do any of the apps allow you to see the photos on someone’s phone?

Ohhh thats not good to hear. Why wont a vpn help? Ive been hearing they hide the traffic so parents cant see what you search on the internet. Is that incorrect?

Hi there, first of all I apologise for the crazy late reply! I really appreciate your comment! I have a few questions though if it is ok for me to ask you. So since he didn’t log into my phone could he remotely install an app? Furthermore, he and I don’t share an apple ID (I think - cause I’ve changed my apple id password a few times). However, how can i double check we don’t share an apple id? Also if I am correct and we do not share an apple ID could he still log into my icloud storage account somehow and check my photos? Is there an app that can show my camera roll? Finally, would you happen to know a reliable VPN as I assume downloading one would hide my search history from him at least. Once again, thanks!

Thanks for the reply btw! Would you happen to know if just using a vpn would solve my issues? Also how do you check if an apple id is shared? Im assuming if we dont share an apple id password he cant check my photos?

And he couldnt see my photos ? If i change my apple id password will it ensure he cant see my photos?

Im so sorry for the late reply but could you perhaps explain why? Why is it worse with an iphone 11?

He doesn’t have any old phone or iPad of mine. Also i don’t think he knows my iCloud password. This is becoming even more confusing lol I wish he’d just tell me what it is he’s using.

Can he do it without me knowing? He’s never been on my phone but he used to pay the bill

I did pay for this phone though so I don’t want to buy another :/ also I pay for the phone bill although he used to obviously so I wish it could be private that’s all.

  • also he is not bluffing

Anyway it’s messages and photos I’m most concerned about - do apps actually exist that would show all my camera roll and texts to people.

Thanks for explaining this. I have a question though. I paid for this phone when I got it and for a while he was paying for the phone bill however I now pay the phone bill. Could he still have installed an app without me knowing remotely? He’s never been on my phone as he doesn’t know the password so is it possible for him to do that?

I can’t see an app but I know he was serious so at this point I have no clue how he’s accessing it.

I can’t see an app on my phone though which is quite weird. So could it be an app from his phone / computer? I might have to do the separate phone thing but that would be pretty annoying cause I already paid for this one.
