Op here. I did, didn’t find anything.

How do you go through someone's phone? I don't have my husband's password nor he mine.

Of course I have my H's password and he has mine, why wouldn't he. How would he unlock it when he is using it.

For privacy?

Having someone's password doesn't mean you're violating their privacy. It's not hard.

But it does mean they could. I prefer to take that option off the table.

So you would rather be married to someone that you don't trust enough to share your password with than the reverse? Interesting. I'd rather be married to someone I trust enough to share my password with because I know they'd never use it to violate my privacy. But you do what you need to in order to protect yourself I guess.

I trust him and he trusts me. It's why there's no need to share passwords.

Sigh. I don't have my husband's password to his phone so that I can read his texts and emails. I have it so that when I don't have my phone but his is nearby, I can use that to take a video of our dogs being silly. My husband doesn't have the password to my phone so he can snoop in my private affairs but so he can change the music while I'm driving and the car is hooked up to my phone.

It's really hard to tell if you actually don't get it or if you're just being argumentative. I'm going with the latter because the former makes me concerned about the intelligence level on DCUM, which no doubt has been waning for years but may make it so bad that Reddit becomes the better option.

Why not spend the time and find your phone if you need a phone near you and just use your husbands? Why does everyone need instant information all the freaking time? No, I’m not cheating but also no, I don’t share location or look up people location either.

We're fighting off the need for instant gratification in these Fallen Times by texting rather than using location sharing on an app? Your decision-making on where to draw the line is fascinating.

At Least put a list of your passwords in a file
Somewhere in case one of you dies. I can speak from experience, it's a NIGHTMARE trying to deal with an estate if you can't log into any of the electronics or websites.

Write them down somewhere or your loved ones will end up in an administrative hell if you die unexpectedly.

I'll bet there is a lot of overlap.

My DH and I have always maintained separate checking accounts, though our investment accounts are joint. We’ve never been interested in monitoring each other’s discretionary expenditures.

I think it’s beyond bizarre that people have a problem enabling Find My Friends for their spouse and kids, unless they are doing something shady or have a spouse that misuses the technology.

And we do the opposite. Join account, but unless one of us was off thru hiking the Appalachian Trail (the real way, not the Mark Sanford way) I can't imagine needing location sharing.

For all the people who say, "But what if I need spouse to pick up groceries/kid/whatever?" don't you still have to actually make said request after determining location? In which case, what's the point?

Why not use candles? Why not have an outhouse? Why not use a horse and cart to get around?

It’s hilarious to me where people draw the line to be independent people flourishing away from their spouse.

In other news, Microsoft just announced that it will send your location in the next Teams update to your employer.

Employer =/= husband

You don't seem to be able to have a discussion without strawman arguments.

Not the PP but you don't know seem to know what a strawman is, and the Teams item was irrelevant to the point they made, just a piece of information.

Same with my kids.

to the poster who said she would not be okay with her teenage daughters boyfriend tracking her--neither would I. But teenage boyfriend is not the same as spouse and father of your kids, or your own child.
