Lighthearted but confusing! Partners search history appeared on my phone

Very random!

yesterday my partner went out hunting down a gas bottle and when he came home, I went to google something and my search results on my phone were ‘gas near me/Calor gas’ etc plus something random about protein shakes.

i asked him if he has searched those specific things and he said yes and showed me on his phone his recent google search.

I’ve never experienced this before and was so confused! Am I missing something and this is ‘normal’ or am I right to be still confused today as to how it happened?!

They are always watching
They are always listening

Just bizarre that he was out in the car miles away from the house for all of the gas related searches! I can’t fathom out how on earth my phones google search somehow picked up on his and they showed in my recent searches. Strange!

Are you/were you logged in on his google account on your phone?

My DM didn't want to get a google account (has since warmed to the idea) so I just logged in on mine for her. All my searches (luckily nothing weird) were coming up when she searched for something Grin

Not that I’m aware of I don’t recall ever signing in or knowing his passwords etc! 🤔 That does seem like the only reasonable explanation but I’m not overly convinced!

Do you ever use each other as a hotspot?

Okay turns out I am signed in on his - I have absolutely no idea how/when! So please ignore this thread completely 😂
