Sounds like your partner is on to you or controlling.
Just say life 360 has been jacked and you will never feel safe thinking someone is following you.
Just dig your heels very emotionally/irrationally over this point!
Then watch out for other tracking devices on your person property.
If you find one you know you are in trouble . Ditto above
Next find somewhere different you can go to regularly and see if you get a reaction. Ditto above.
Next clean up evidence on your phone, junk and trash bins etc and show him/her something on your phone and leave it with them unlocked for a few minuets, see what happens, if nothing otherwise ditto above
Does your partner allow access to his phone if not ditto above
Phone sharing by both is a sign of trust, otherwise ditto above!
If you have a secret hide it in plain sight

In the grand scheme of things ….you don’t need all of those ridiculous apps ……have the ones that aid you for your own personal needs ….use your brain functions then no paper trail ..🙂

you are quite correct and I did point this out to the lady in question.

You do understand that controlling and coercive behaviour is a criminal offence these days.

Some of these comments are slightly worrying and I would be more concerned about that than having an affair.

On the other hand I have learned to take a massive pinch of salt from what people say on here

Makes for interesting discussion

But to answer the main point . Just don’t install the bloody thing . This is the UK a for the most part a very safe place. Don’t let the media fill your head with paranoid thoughts just so some company can sell you more crap you don’t need .

Usefull for kids but not to track partners.. That's just insecure

I have family tracking on my phone (FindMyPhone & SnapChat maps) and if you accept that you have to have them. You get used to them and can plan around it.

You can turn them off for a couple of hours.

You can leave your phone at work whilst you ‘pop out’.

Where there’s a will there’s a way.

If you don’t install the ‘tracking apps ‘ then you are ok ….and the app will ask you for permission to your location…I have an iPhone/watch so I can track my phone and my air pods anywhere …..no app on my phone as it’s an apple device….but I have got my phone on total privacy …if anything suspect comes along my phone blocks it immediately…that doesn’t give you the option to become complacent…. there are apps to counteract certain things…also my car can be found but only by the primary user of which you set up yourself ….no one else can discover it …..I always use google maps for sat nav ….

Be careful….women are often better at this than guys 😂

Some of these apps can be invisible, or there could be a tile tracker or similar, mysteriously dropped in your purse or wallet. Modern cars can be tracked. If I found a device like that I’d a) be worried and b) know I’d been rumbled. But I’m not too worried about the tracking functionality on my phone that enables me to find it (or for a cup of tea to be waiting for me when I get home).

Aeroplane mode is my friend, and I’m such a forgetful muggins that I can regularly be relied upon to forget my phone and my keys. Do it often enough, and on innocent occasions as well, and it becomes a mere annoyance rather than cause for suspicion. Besides, I’m from the generation before mobile phones got surgically attached. I can live without it.

My last IE affair had this on their phone. It was installed by her hubby 'so we can keep tabs on the kids' but in truth it was just another way he used to try to control her. Challenging her if she turned it off and wanting to know what she was doing.
Along with other behaviours,it has lead to her divorcing him!
