Do you have a password protected smartphone or do you keep it unlocked at all times.

And

Would you let your partner , any status , access your phone messages , contac and other personal data without permission ???

Unlocked
Not at first, at some point probably wouldn't care , she could look but would have to let me use her " attitude adjuster" paddle in the bed room that night.

Whilst I believe strongly in privacy...
If I were the kind of man to keep secrets,
what kind of partner would I be to her?

But, yes, my phone is passworded in the
event someone else gets ahold of it.

No, I don't keep my phone locked. Reason being, I am not too good with remembering PWs . Also the touch panel tends to act up at times so I avoid using other forms of protection either!

No, I'm not okay with my partner browsing through my phone or laptop, neither do/would I do the same.
Do I have much to hide or conceal? Not necessarily.
Is everything out for public or is everything to be revealed? Naw!

Ladies,where are you?i wanna hear u about this

This is a Nice Question .
I believe in the Zone of Privacy . No! I dont like anything to hide but at the same time I just dont like people going thru' my Phone and then asking me hundreds of Question.

Phones don't work with password anymore but fingerprint.
I could disable that I suppose but I wouldn't.

And no, I would not be okay with him doing such things without permission. What's next, me recording conversations with friends & family for him to listen to?
Trust is the word, and respecting personal space.

I use password but most everything is fingerprinted.

I don't want him looking at mine and I won't look at his.

I have nothing to hide, it's called trust.

Yes it's protected with a fingerprint,
And backed up with a password in case I forget my fingerprint

Off course she's welcome to look through it,
but there's a nominal administration fee (for tea n biscuits lol)


EDIT
What surprises me is the number of people who DON'T have an anti virus on their phones...

Without permission hell noooo..

But now if they ask I would hand it to them, mine is not password protected and nothing on there that I would have an issue with anyone seeing..

But I would have to question why they want to see my phone.. Seems there might be some trust issues..

That is kind of like going through my purse without permission...even tho there is nothing to hid in there it is mine and not for someone to search through.. My own kids even knew my purse was off limits..

Mine is a finger swipe (unlocked).
I use it as a phone. It sets in the charging cradle most of the time.

My gf knows more about my phone than I do but I don't care.
I've nothing to hide.

On the other hand, I don't mess with her phone at all.
Not only do I trust her word, I am not the least bit curious.

My computer on the other hand is passwored protected and I do not let her 'play' on it unless I am present.
Mainly because I have important personal documents scanned into its file system and she doesn't have the experience to safely navigate without the threat of deletion. But...she has seen those documents and I will show her anything she is curious about.
Its the threat of file loss which drives my caution, not a trust issue.

I did help her set up her laptop so it works the same way my pc works.
Made sure she has the right virus, pop-up and spyware protection and showed her how to stream music and movies.
Aside if she asks, I do not mess with her laptop either.

I also will not go into her purse but I have no issue with her looking in my wallet. I've nothing to hide from her. If that ever changes, its time to find someone else.

The computer is another thing indeed.
I'm not concerned about what's on there, but more for someone accidentally messing things up.
And in all honesty, I rather not have anyone else on my PC. It's called PERSONAL computer after all :)
So much is on my PC, although all that matters is backed up on an external HD, but the way I've organised things might be totally illogical to another and I do not want it changed.
And I sure as heck don't want anyone to mess with the basics of my PC. If it doesn't work anymore... I need it too much, I do everything on it.
When still living with my ex I was okay with him doing stuff as he wouldn't screw up: he'd be the one that had to fix it again

My son once changed some settings on my phone, went home, and my phone did different things then. I had no idea what he'd done nor where to find these settings, haha. He's way more savvy than I am with these things (with PCs as well).
So I had to phone him to undo it and ask him to never change anything again without asking and telling me what.

what ever happened to I'll show you mine if you show me yours?

I don't demand for his phone,I simply just let him use my phone if needed,but he has password on his own phone...Sorry to admit..hunch made me open it one rainy day and guess numerous Pword,successful and saw what I'm supposed to know and never ask him abt it but investigated it on my own.If I maintained the privacy he initiated,then I'm still attached to that cellphone ,uhm I mean to him.

I don't mind sharing my password, but if I find out my partner is hacking my property without my permission, there's a problem. I wouldn't invade your personal space, so don't do it to me! I have trauma about that kinda crap from when I was still living with my mother. She financially molested me, sorry to say...

oh definitely. My phone is password protected along with finger print. never tried the eye scanner.

I would let her on my phone once were dating awhile. Have to build on trust but also getting to know one another. Definitely would be open on everything always. I was this way during my first marriage and will do the same again. Honesty, trust, and love.

I give tou my number if you use it

She could look thru my phone, that's why I have a burner phone too! 🤣🤣🤣

I lock my phone. And I would add that locking a phone is only locking access to the screen. There are other ways a phone can be accessed and it is important to know those as well.

For example, one way to lock your phone is to disconnect from WiFi and data when you aren't using it. Otherwise, there is information being sent and received constantly. Also draining battery life.

Another way you can lock your phone is by logging out of all services that require a login. For example, logging out of your Google account can be a way of locking your phone. However there are ways for Google to access your phone without you logging in. The OS is basically Google.

Finally, another way of locking your phone is putting it in something that blocks all signals from getting through to and from the device. Some people put their phones in special boxes or bags that are sealed with some kind of material that doesn't let cell and data signals to get through unless they want them to.

There is a part in a recent TERMINATOR film where Sarah keeps her phone in an empty bag of chips. I'm not sure how accurate that is but that is an example. Maybe a good idea. Along with unplugging the modem when it's time to sleep.

Looking though somebody's phone is like reading their mail. It's none of your business. If you like somebody, allow them their privacy.

My phone is protected with fingerprint and a pin.

I don't like my partner snooping through my phone, and I will never snoop through his.
