62% Of Men Check Their Partner's Phone

A new study has revealed that a significant number of people check their partner's phones when they aren't looking.

The research, which was carried out by Mobile Phone Checker, added that men are more likely to snoop than women.

Some 62% of men polled claimed to checking their partner's phone, while only 34% of women said the same. When asked why they sneak a look, 89% said it was to see if their other half is sending sending inappropriate messages to someone of the opposite sex.

A further 52% even admitted they knew the password to their partner's phone just so they could check.

Of those who took part in the study, 48% said they had found something incriminating on their partner's phone, 53% of which were via a text message, while 42% were over Facebook. Interestingly, 59% of women said they would admit to snooping in order to confront their partner about their infidelity, compared to only 37% of men who said they would bring it up.

Ironically, 31% said if they discovered their other half was checking up on them they would consider ending the relationship, but a sneaky 36% said they were careful and didn't leave their phone unattended.

Adam Cable, Director of Mobile Phone Checker, said: "No one can deny that it's hard to resist looking at a partner's phone if the opportunity arises to have a sneaky peek. Our findings reveal a pretty surprising trend of snooping in the UK though, particularly amongst men - which may be a sign that mobiles are either making it more difficult for couples to build trust in a relationship, or simply making it easier for people to spy on their partner's actions!"
