Do you wonder if your husband is cheating, but you’re not sure? It might start out with a gut feeling that something is not quite right, or a simple change in his attitude. Unless someone confesses or they’re caught red-handed, it can seem impossible to know for certain if your spouse is cheating. In fact, when you know what to look for, it is not difficult to find the truth. There are common signs among cheaters to watch for and apps that you can download.
Suspicious Signs to Watch For
You most likely would not be suspicious in the first place if there wasn’t something different about the way your husband is acting. People involved in an affair usually have common traits associated with them that you should pay attention to. These traits or signs include:
Being overly protective of his phone
Hiding a second phone
Protecting his phone and social media with secret passwords
Refusing to give you his passwords
Coming home late
Displaying an unusual change in interests like music and clothing
Texting at odd hours
Finding hidden items like Viagra

If you notice one or more of these signs, try not to confront your spouse immediately without real proof. By confronting too soon, you will cause him to be more careful, making it harder to confirm what you suspect. Another danger of confronting too quickly is that your spouse could start accusing you of being overly jealous or even crazy, which will cause you to doubt your gut feelings.
Look for Cheating Apps
In this day and age of social media and apps, cheating has never been easier to conceal from a spouse. There are plenty of apps that a cheater can easily use to hide their cell phone activity, but knowing what to look for is a good start. If you are able to check his phone, look for the following apps:
TigerText
SnapChat
BlackSMS
CATE (Call and Text Eraser)
Finding any of these or similar apps on his cell phone is a reason for concern. If you ask your spouse about these apps, he will probably tell you that he has a right to privacy and refuse to let you have the passwords. This type of circular arguing will lead to more frustration and it is best to drop the subject until you find out more.
Apps to Catch a Cheater
Now that you know what to look for, it is time to get the actual proof. Snooping can be distasteful, but you must be proactive instead of reactive in order to get the truth and stop the affair. Thankfully, there are apps and devices that can help confirm whether or not your husband is cheating. You should consider the following apps:
Dr. Fone
iPhone Spy Stick
Cell Phone Recon
SIM Recovery Pro II
mSpy
Many apps are free or have a free version of their premium software. In addition to using these apps to find the truth, there are devices available to catch a cheater. Installing a voice activated recorder in the car or home will allow you to hear everything that is said. Using a GPS tracker or installing the Find My Phone app will let you know where they are at all times.
