Why are there two photos on my phone, taken today, that I did not take?

Weird. There are two pictures on my phone camera that I most definitely did not take today. I have no idea who these people are and they were taken at 11.28 this morning when I was in my house, not on a train which is where the photos were taken!

WTF?

Check WhatsApp or FB messenger? They sometimes download photos automatically when someone sends them through

Spooky.

Does your WhatsApp automatically save pictures that people send you?

Have you got cloud photo sharing with someone?

They've definitely not been sent to me via WhatsApp or messenger and no cloud sharing with anyone else! I have no idea who these people are at all.

Well this is concerning.... My DP took a photo of his rear end last week to investigate a possible pile when the mirror wasn't helping, hope the same didn't happen to him

I had exactly the same thing a couple of days ago. Some screen shots of male and one female outfits that looked like screenshots from a fashion website. Just me and DH in the house asleep at that time.

I had photo sharing temporarily enabled as I sent my DD a photo when she was here. Now disabled it on iPhone. Assume it was from a neighbours phone or computer. Quite creepy.

Is it an iPhone? Do you have an iPad that could’ve left the house today?

do you have bluetooth enabled?

Is it they could have been accidentally air dropped to you?

It's not an iphone and bluetooth is off.

I don't even know what air dropping means? I should mention I'm a bit of a luddite when it comes to this stuff.

have a look in your settings.
in my case under general settings is the option to air drop and to switch it off or restrict to contacts or have it open.

I was about to say air drop as well but I think you have to accept when someone air drops or shares photos with you from their cloud.
I’d suspect a shared cloud/album with someone.

You have to accept air drops.

If you have Gmail and google pictures - you can see all pictures from all devices that you have been logged in with you gmail email lol The same hapenned to me when I found a selfy of my cousin on my phone - she did that selfy on her tablet but I used my gmail on that device previously. Its actually creepy especially when its photos of peope you dont know haha

Have you had a phone stolen recently?
Maybe they are using that to access your cloud?
I would reset all my things and change passwords to be safe and contact your provider as well.

I haven't lost my phone, don't share cloud with anyone, I only every log on my own laptop or my phone. No shared devices at all. It's REALLY weird!

Could it have been in your pocket and double clicked the side or front button to activate camera ?

I was at home bourbonbiccy the photo was a selfie of a group of lads taken on a train about 80 miles away.

Then it must have been somehow sent to or shared with your phone. That's the only way. Unless you believe phones can travel in time and space.

If you click on "info" what does it say?

My phone can travel forward in time and in three dimensional space

OP sorry, should have registered that on your original post !!!! My Fail 😭😭

Perhaps your phone has a secret life, travelling on trains, seeing the world...
