Phones and privacy/security

[mumoftwoboys321]

Curious what people’s options are regarding phones or computers
do you think partners should know passcodes pins etc
and if certain apps are locked with Face ID is that because of suspicious activity
always been interested with these things as technology changes so much and settings become more loaded with options just looking for a wider opinion

My phone and laptop are private and I've never shared pins etc with a partner, nor expected them to share with me.

I will hand them the phone to show them something or let them borrow my laptop if they need to, but rarely, as they tend to have their own.

Given the above, I have no idea what levels of security settings they have on their tech, as I expect they don't know on mine. I don't find it suspicious at all as a baseline, though I could imagine that if you have an established relationship baseline that is more open, then maybe a change in habits would look suspicious.

I have most messaging apps and social media locked with FaceId. Partner has passcodes on his. Neither of us have ever felt the need to share passcodes etc.
Both of us are entitled to privacy, as are our friends and family who converse with us and share things they might not want shared with someone else, particularly without their consent.
In the entire time we’ve been together, neither of us have ever felt that having passcodes on our phones etc is a sign of something untoward. All humans are entitled to have friendships and conversations that belong to them and them alone IMO
