Just that, how many of you know your husbands/partners passcode for their phone?

He uses facial recognition for both of us, so I can access it.

Gardeningtime · 27/12/2023 23:05

Yes but he doesn’t know mine,mines a work phone though. I have to go into his often, things from banking text codes, to him being a bit shit at answering texts or finding stuff. I never search it though or do more than I am needing to do.

What's making me laugh is the posters saying 'I have my husband's passcode to his phone, but I NEVER look at his phone,' and 'I have all the passwords to his email addresses, his bank account, his social media accounts, his facebook messenger, and everything, but I NEVER look at them.'

😆 😂

I’m 99% certain it’s one of two or three… it’s not a secret but I have no reason to access his phone so don’t keep on top of knowing it

mynameiscalypso · 27/12/2023 23:04

No. I think he knows mine because it's the same as on my iPad and he sometimes has to unlock that for DS to play with it. Wouldn't even occur to me to ask for it or to use his phone for anything. I always have my own phone on me.

Floralnomad · 27/12/2023 23:03

No because he changes it regularly but he’s always asking me to text / WhatsApp people as he has fat fingers so is happy to share it . He’s welcome to use mine whenever .

Kanelsnegl · 27/12/2023 23:03

Yup, same as mine as I have his old phone.

No I have no need to but in an emergency I’d bet it was either one of mine or the kids birthdays it out wedding anniversary. Or if not something to do with Celtic 😂

Yes and he knows mine

meganorks · 27/12/2023 23:03

Yeah, I do. Not because I've been snooping but because he's told me for when he's driving or something and I need to look for something. I've never been snooping.

GoatsareGOAT · 27/12/2023 23:02

Yes we know each others & the kids all know mine too
We trust each other enough to have full access and not invade each others privacy

user701 · 27/12/2023 23:02

Of course

socks1107 · 27/12/2023 23:02

Yes, sometimes we open each others phone when driving for various reasons

Listentogold · 27/12/2023 23:01

Yes and he has mine. Plus I know his pin number for his bank account.

elgreco · 27/12/2023 23:01

Yes

thebestinterest · 27/12/2023 23:01

We know each others, but not because we set out for it to be that way.

Sometimes he doesn’t have his phone handy and needs to take a picture to send to himself, or look up something or disconnect me from the Bluetooth, and vice versa.

saltinesandcoffeecups · 27/12/2023 23:00

Does it count that I’ve been told it multiple times but can’t be bothered to remember it?

I may be set up on his facial recognition, but can’t remember

GreatGateauxsby · 27/12/2023 23:00

Yes I do. He knows mine too.

Seriously79 · 27/12/2023 23:00

Yes he knows mine.

He's told me his countless times, but I've never remembered it.

RJnomore1 · 27/12/2023 23:00

No I have no need to but in an emergency I’d bet it was either one of mine or the kids birthdays it out wedding anniversary. Or if not something to do with Celtic 😂

RubySundayy · 27/12/2023 23:00

All those of you saying there’s no need - have you ever considered how you’d sort everything without phone access if one of you died??

RufustheFactualReindeer · 27/12/2023 23:00

There is no need to have your DP/DH's passcode to his phone - or for him to have yours - unless you don't trust each other

everyone has my password

dh quite often gets me to google maps when he is driving so will use his phone for that as an example

its got nothing to do with not trusting each other…

RubySundayy · 27/12/2023 22:59

Yes, we have each other’s. I worry how we’d contact people in an emergency eg he doesn’t have all my friends’ numbers and they’re not all on social media so I’d want him to be able to access my contacts list.

DamsonDress · 27/12/2023 22:59

Yes. He knows mine too (because mine is piss easy to work out) but neither of us are interested in each others phones so no invasion of privacy.

Although..... I've ended up with all his contacts and his emails on my phone because he pays for all the contracts and they've synced with his email account or something. Not a major problem although I did ass dial one of his colleagues once.
