to think you don't start going through someone else's phone album?

[MsIrrational]

I have a few friends / family members who are terrible for this.

For example, if I show them a picture of my DC they want to hold my phone for a closer look and then start scrolling through the rest of my photos!

I could have a picture of an infected boil on my aresehole for all they know!

AIBU to think this is a bit nosey and invasive?

Or I have got a bit of an issue? I have nothing to "hide" but my phone is very personal and private.

YANBU at all I hate this too! There’s a thing you can do to lock the phone on that photo I think so everything else is frozen. They can’t access any further pics without Unlocking your phone.

Place a dick pic or arse shot either side and let them scroll

YANBU, it annoys me too!

Put some 'lovely' photos at the start of the camera roll, that will stop them in there tracks 🍆🍑

My sister does this, I don’t leave my phone laying around when she visits. It’s intrusive and rude.

Oo wasn't aware of this!

Ha ha yes I definitely need to carefully place some photos to repulse!

@MsIrrational I’ll ask DP I can’t seem to find the option 😊

To combat this faux pas, slightly zoom in on the photo, before you hand over the phone...they can't then blithely start scooting through the rest of your photos.

Not without them blatantly doing it and you can then whip the phone back.

I witnessed this where a group of colleagues were seated around a table & one lady handed her phone to a lady on the other side of the table to look at one! Photo. The recipient then proceeded to scroll through all the photos on the phone despite being asked several times to not do that and to hand the phone back! It went on for about 5 minutes. It was really shocking and embarrassing.

It’s more than a ‘bit’ nosey and invasive! Jesus some of what’s on my phone is definitely for my eyes only and any of that nonsense and there’d be some firm slapping of the hands being dished out to the offending nosey bastards!!!

If you photograph the join of your elbow/forearm in the right angle, it looks like an arse! Put that on there for them!
