| LONG STORY SHORT..but I'm pretty confident I'm in the middle of a cheating relationship :( I've been hearing some rumors past few months but I always ignore, not a jealous person, but really am starting to wonder. Does anybody know how to track the location of cell phones without using the app I downloaded called GPS tracking Life 360? I even called verizon to ask them, nothing has come up..there's got to be a way with todays technology to look at another phone without having to download an app on their phone? Or maybe I'm just dreaming? Thanks in advance from a sad individual... |

I was thinking the same thing, that would be too easy for the world to see!?

| If they have an iPhone I think you can go to settings, privacy, location services, system services, frequent locations. of it's not turned on, turn it on and give it a couple days, then when you go back to it, it'll show you places visited and time spent there. If it's an android, I'm not sure how to do it but I do know it has a similar feature |

      Location: ohio-in my own little world with pretty ponies :) | Mine and my husbands phones are somehow linked together...maybe bc we use the same iCloud? Idk but we just realized the other day that we each can go into our "find iPhone" app and I can see the exact location of his phone and mine. He can do the same. |

     Location: Do I hear Banjos? | If you truly suspect something is going on. Ask him/her. Just calmly ask.
The fact that you are concerned enough to want to track their movements tells me trust is already broken. Don't torture yourself with the questions. Get answers. If they are lying...you will likely be able to tell.
If you are hearing rumors...who are you hearing them from? Might that not also tell you one way or another where to go to look?
Frankly...I wouldn't want to be in a relationship that had me doubting to the point that I want to track their movements. Life is short. |

^truth. I would just ask. Explain that you have heard some things and see what happens. If I felt I NEEDED to track my husbands location at all times...then I married he wrong guy |

| So you are wanting to track his phone? I agree just confront him. Can someone legally track another's persons phone? |

| The fb suggestion will only work if they have their location turned on... many turn it off when theyre not using it because it kills battery. Verizon/cell provider is the only way I know asside from using apps. Verizon should be able to give you a locatoin and how accurate it is but you have to be on their plan to do this.
I know only from working as a 911 dispatcher. but I agree with others, just ask him... dont be the crazy stalker gf. |

        Location: southeast Texas | Playing devils advocate here: lets say you ask him if he is doing what you suspect. His answer is, no they are crazy. He loves you etc. would you be able to ignore that little voice in your head and believe him. Or live the rest of your life wondering |

| suspected a significant other was cheating, asked him, he denied it, I forgot it, 2 years later he got drunk and I guess decided to tell me the truth...... He did!
If you have a feeling that something isn't right, something isn't right!! But also, be aware that if you go sneaky around trying to catch him in a lie or trying to catch him in the act, and he's not doing anything.... He's going to feel violated, disrespected, and be upset with you because you didn't trust him. The truth will always come out... eventually!
I guess what I'm trying to say, Get him Drunk and interrogate him!!!!  |

| I guess I am going to go against popular advice here. What guy admits his wrong doing when confronted?? I have not met any in the past. I have tried this method and been told nothing was going on, believed it, and continued to be played like a fiddle . I am not one of the crazy stalker types at all and do not prefer to conduct myself in that manner. I do not go looking for trouble. HOWEVER, if If I have good inclination something is going on I am at least going to look into it myself. If this is taking place in a marriage there is all the more reason to find out for sure and get proof if so. Proving infidelity can greatly effect divorce proceedings (if that is the route chosen). And sometimes you just need to know for yourself. |

   Location: Missouri | To answer your question on the phone, android links up to google and you can track it through your google account. So if he has a google account and you know the password, you can log on and see where he has been. I do this if I have lost or misplaced my phone. Saves it from being stolen too.
Edit to add: it will notify him of being tracked.

           Location: Florida.. | I dont think its right to go on someones accounts and track them.. are you Married? even then its wrong..
ask him ,Confront him but dont spy on him. be mature about it.. because either way the outcome will be the same.. he wont trust you if hes innocent and finds out you have been tracking him and got into his accounts.. and you wont trust him if hes guilty so you will have to talk at some point. |

   Location: Somewhere else | Their are alot of stuff out there that you can buy cheap to trace where he goes, emails, texts are really hard to get unless you know somebody in PI or Forensics that can check the actual phone and retrieve everything off of there. Devices are available where they turn on only when someone is talking, very small cameras that can be put in a vehicle to record what the driver is doing. Just research it and you can find tons of stuff out their. But ask first and just see what he says. If he has a phone with a sims card you can download everything from it with the right device. |

      Location: California | Wow!!! SO many people run around on relationship threads and always say LEAVE. I wonder what it is like to never ever be insecure or have doubts. Doesn't mean it's a bad marriage, it means it's life! Someone has every right to get to the bottom of things in their marriage. NO ONE has to justify that, we all deserve peace of mind! AND, even if their is infidelity it doesn't always mean divorce! Some relationships derail for a bit but can still be survived and go on to be a good marriage.
To the poster-- it's okay to have concerns-- we are humans and it's humans to get insecure at times no matter how great the relationship and if you want to track your husband then you go right on ahead and do it. I'd tell him the same thing about you! Sometimes just KNOWING for yourself can kill insecurities more than what you're being told. I hope you can find a resolution. I know not all marriages are salvageable, but some can turn in to wonderful relationships. Good luck. |

I certainly didn't advice her to leave...BUT...I don't think spying on the other person is a healthy thing to do. And if they are innocent...and they learn you went around being a sneak behind their back...well...good luck to ya.
