He has form but from years ago.

Just returned from lads holiday.

I left the living room to do something but ended up coming straight back in as forgot something.

He was on an app. Black and green. Shut it down when I came back in which raised suspicion. May have been a green or white W? Can't be sure.

Yes I could ask but they never tell when confronted. Once bitten....

He is into running so could be something like that but haven't seen anything like that.

The Apple Watch app is black and green on iPhone.
Is it iPhone or android as not sure if the app icons are the same?

Carock · 30/06/2024 21:09

Are you sure it’s not WhatsApp?

Mrsttcno1 · 30/06/2024 21:11

Black and green could be spotify x

Walking12345 · 30/06/2024 21:13

The met weather app is black and green too.

Ilovebees · 30/06/2024 21:13

Not Spotify. Or WhatsApp. Background was black. Thanks for suggestions.

Throwitontheground · 30/06/2024 22:21

Session private messenger is green and black if you look in the app store you’ll see

ajanifear · 30/06/2024 22:31

AllTrails is dark with a green mountain outline

Walking12345 · 30/06/2024 23:04

Have you worked it out?

WatieKatie · 30/06/2024 23:06

Threema?

stonedaisy · 30/06/2024 23:42

Telegram?

Can you get hold of his phone? If it’s an iPhone go to Settings then Battery. It will tell you what apps have been used in the last 24 hours and 10 days.

Bpickle1 · 01/07/2024 08:12

Was going to say Grindr (gay hookup app) but that’s black and yellow

Startingagainandagain · 01/07/2024 08:16

I don't think the colour of that app of what it is are your main issues...

The bigger picture is that there is little trust in this relationship and you are still unsettled by the fact that he cheated in the past.

I would ask myself if it is really worth staying with someone who makes you feel that way.

Some dating apps are those colours I think but I don't know for sure. 🤷🏼‍♀️

It looked a bit like session. What is that used for? I can see it's a private messenger.

Also looked a bit like the all trails too.

Aware that there are bigger issues but not as simple at the moment.

It's going to look like several Apps, and you can wonder all day but never know the answer. I think your energy is best directed elsewhere, him being on an app that you don't recognise is a symptom of the problem, not the problem.

Money on it being Kik

Yes, that could be mistaken for a W from a distance at quick glance.

ajanifear · 01/07/2024 11:12

I thought it was likely kik but at least on my Apple AppStore, the logo is now a white background with green letters and a blue box. I don’t know if that will be the same on the home screen / when it’s downloaded

retinolalcohol · 01/07/2024 12:16

I'm on all the dating apps and none are black and green as far as I know.

Kik is black and green though - another (IME dodgy) messaging app.

Kik is a russian messenging app, the equivalent of Whatsapp. Popular with girls in central and eastern Europe. Could imagine it being used for OnlyFans or something.
