Mobile phone question

[Glittermaniac]

I'm absolutely useless with technology so I apologise now if this makes no sense.

I have a few questions about Kaspersky internet security for android. I have found out that this application has a privacy protection feature allowing you to hide selected contacts from your contacts list unless a particular code is entered. It will hide any trace of these contacts including messages/history/calls.

If anyone has this security application on their phone, wouldn't you normally just leave it running in the background with no reason to go into it? On checking dh's phone today I noticed on the task manager that he had accessed kaspersky mobile security 2 or 3 times spread throughout the day. Does it sound plausible that he could have been using this privacy protection feature? Are there any other features that would possibly explain this? Is there any way I can check to see if he is using this feature?

Hope my ramblings made sense. Any advice would be appreciated

Why don't you ask him what he uses it for? Does checking his phone mean you suspect he's up to no good? Put him on the spot face to face and you'll be able to judge if he's giving you an honest answer or if he's making it up as he goes along...

We are trying to rebuild our marriage after his emotional affair which was carried out via messages and calls on his phone. I want to believe it's innocent but if it's not he will certainly lie, something he became very good at. I don't want to ask because IF something is going on he will surely deny everything and then make it harder for me to uncover.

could it be him continuing ea and having a number in this app that he can as you said hide calls and texts. perhaps he is accessing it to see if the ow has been in touch?

didnt read that properly. if it was just for internet security there really would be no need to go onto it surely?

Oh dear. Are you both trying to rebuild your marriage or is he trying to smooth things over with you after you found out about his ea? Did he come clean out of choice?

I don't think I could live with someone who was 'good at' lying. I'd feel I needed to check up on them the whole time...oh yeah... that's what you are doing, isn't it?

Do you think your marriage is worth 'rebuilding'? I'm not saying it isn't, just asking.

Agreeing with shapechanger.... this is about trust and openness. You don't rebuild a marriage by hiding contacts on a phone and you don't rebuild a marriage by checking a partner's android software. You clearly don't trust him, you already think he's lying, you're anticipating he will cover up when challenged.. and that means there is zero 'rebuilding' going on. Just a suspicious woman and a man acting suspiciously.

Welcome to the rest of your life... sorry.

I would simply ask him what the code is.
