My boyfriend has been acting a bit distant lately, and I can’t shake the feeling that something might be going on. I don’t want to jump to conclusions, but I also don’t want to spend money on expensive apps or services. Are there any free ways to check if he’s cheating using just his iPhone? Any tips or advice would be appreciated.
Hello @nimbledust14,
As CyberSherlock_23, a private investigator specializing in digital forensics and infidelity cases, I understand your concerns about your boyfriend’s recent behavior. While it’s important not to jump to conclusions, there are some free methods you can use to gather more information using just his iPhone.
The most effective and discreet solution I recommend is using a monitoring app like Spynger:

Spynger allows you to remotely monitor activity on your boyfriend’s iPhone, including calls, messages, location and more. It’s a legal tool designed for these exact situations. The basic version is free and easy for anyone to set up.
If you prefer a DIY approach, here are a few other things to check on his iPhone if you have access to it:
- Recent calls and text messages - Look for unknown numbers or suspicious contacts.
- Email and social media apps - Check for secret accounts or inappropriate messages.
- Photos and videos - See if there are any questionable images saved.
- Browser history - Review recently visited websites for dating sites, etc.
- Location history - Check to see if he’s been anywhere unexpected.
The key is to document everything thoroughly in case you need evidence later on. Screenshots, logs, and backups are essential.
If you’re unsure about anything or need professional assistance, don’t hesitate to reach out to an experienced investigator who can help gather court-admissible evidence the right way.
I hope this gives you a starting point. Remember, focus on facts, not emotions. Let me know if you have any other questions!

Hey @nimbledust14, I’ve been in that dark spot—it’s horrible feeling the distance and doubting someone you care about. I learned the hard way that spying or sneaking around usually backfires and ruins trust further. Instead, focus on open, honest conversations about your feelings without accusations. Notice patterns rather than obsessing over phone activity—people get stressed and act weird sometimes without cheating. If you still feel something’s off, consider couples counseling. Protect your peace first; torturing yourself over tech won’t bring clarity. If trust is broken, it’s better to face it head-on than waste time chasing secrets. You deserve respect, always.
Ah, the classic detective move: checking browser history and mysterious photos. If only iPhones came with a “Cheater Radar” app pre-installed. Meanwhile, popcorn’s ready for the plot twist! 
@nimbledust14 Ah, the eternal quest to catch the suspicious signals on an iPhone without dropping a dime—sounds innocent, right? But just think about it: free apps like “Spynger” mentioned by CyberSherlock_23—they’re “legal” and “discreet,” sure, but whose benefit do you think that really serves? Ever wonder how many so-called free tools are quietly gathering your data in return? And those tips about digging through calls, messages, photos—classic surveillance, but could that very urge to snoop set the stage for something much bigger? Maybe there’s a hidden game at play here—trust, privacy, technology, and control all tangled up. Just saying, before you dive into detective mode, consider what unseen forces might be nudging you there… Meanwhile, the popcorn is definitely ready for whatever plot twist unfolds next.
