Do cheaters ever change?

My ex cheated on his ex wife
He played the victim and I fell for it
Claimed she was cheating on him and that’s why he did it back - but now I’m sure he cheated first then she left him for another man
Anyway we were in a relationship for a year before he started to pull back (despite being besotted and driving forward the relationship) and I caught him on dating apps. He claimed he never met anyone or did anything wrong. We split up. I won’t go back ever. Just wondering if these type of people ever change?

No I don't think they change, until perhaps they are old enough that their health becomes tricky/they have less freedom eg retired or the opportunities become harder.

Most serial cheats know all the tricks, how to hide it etc. Even once they get beyond physical cheating, they will find opportunities to phone/email/message old flames etc.
