iPhones/Privacy

Well...I got in a little trouble recently with the Mrs.....I was using Safari on my iPhone and was looking at a porn site (shocking, I know right?)....but what happened was my wife came to me and showed me on her phone exactly what was on my phone. Somehow what I was looking at was showing up on her iPhone....a bit embarrassing.....Good thing I wasn't looking at ECCIE on it. We both have iPhone 6 phones....couldn't believe that this took place and cant figure out why my items were showing up on her phone....this ever happen to any of you guys?

According to a quick look at Apple Help, it looks like if you use ICloud, your Safari tabs are kept active, and you can access them from another linked device.

elg......

Wonder if you synced under the same account in iTunes?

If that is the case, can she also use her phone to access the tracking device on his phone? That is something you want to look into, maninneed

Heh...I love technologically inept people...

Also, if they're both signed in using the same Apple ID, depending on their settings, Contacts, Calendars, Notes, Pictures, email, and even iMessages that appear on one phone will automatically appear in the other...

Love it...

Best to use burner phone.

The weird thing is that we do not have the same Apple ID's...I dont use the cloud...I use the 'private" feature when browsing on my iPhone so I was shocked to say the least...as was she!!! And the fact that it was lesbian porn didnt help either....she quipped "atleast it wasn't 2 guys going at it"....Thanks for the advice/tips guys.....

Sounds like wifey is tech savvy MIN!
All the more reason for a burner phone.....

FWIW heard that Droid phones also have this same capability to be spied on, unless you install an app like Google Voice, then hide it on your Droid to keep your hobbying calls/text incognito .....

Same thing happened to me, only difference was I caught it myself on my sons iPad. I almost shit my pants.

George Orwell was just a little late on the date........but 1984 exists today......

Also check that you didn't set up "Family Sharing". That's a sure way to screw yourself.

The Family Sharing was off too...that's what was making this so perplexing....I think I found the problem...

And it was?

Yeah agree with blthzr
