Not ripping on him it's the GF we are worried about.
a radio host once said before you get married. Take a look at your current relationship. Now realize that's the best it's ever going to be. people think marriage fixes things more often it's the other way around. you think a ring is going to keep her out of your business your already calling her a nut job.. she can't respect your privacy. I agree
GF 2.0
Displayrecorder records your screen. Buy it for a few bucks, turn it on, leave iPhone in room with gf and say You need to go weewee, come back and look what see did.
There's an app for that, itrust. $0.99
I kinda feel for you dude. catching her with this app will help you cause you'll be certain that your not imagining things, but, being confronted with proof that she's snooping is unlikely to cause her to 'see the light' and turn into the trusting fiance.
good luck and let us know how things shake out.

I'd get GF 2.0 or later...if you don't, I suspect you'll soon need DivorceAtty 2.5 and that's a very expensive app...

10+ lol been down the DivorceAtty road it sucks TS you need to figure out how your GF is going feel when you lock her out.
my guess she going to think your up to something. she might not say anything but her suspicions are going to go up.Wanna catch her cold with NO APP?
Take a small vid of yourself changing your buddies name to that of a girl. A hot bimbo chick type name like Brandy or Candy etc. Then have your buddy send you a bunch of NWS texts about how hot last night was etc etc etc. Use your imagination just make SURE its real good and messed up to the point where you know she'll freak out. Dont say a damn word to ANYONE about this because loose lips sink ships brother. Then leave your phone in a manner that she would have to snoop when she checks it which by the sound of it she will. After she freaks out and confronts you show her the video and you can then say how you feel about her lying to you screws with your mind and how does she like it? Now she gets the punishment of feeling screwed over BIG TIME and the embarrassment of feeling like a lying sack of gtfooml and you have victory my friend.
If she walks on you thank me later. If she realizes her wrongs and comes around? Maybe shes worth keeping but dont give chase for that stunt bro you let her come around to you. You and everyone in a relationship deserves the straight goods from you other half.
Have fun and post up the results for us

LMFAO!!!!!! I dont feel anybody is ripping on me. I understand where everyone is coming from and I get it.
If I get an app that locks the other apps down she will get even more nuts which is not my goal. I'll look into tha displayrecorder thing. Is that in Cydia?
Thanks everyone.
If you got nothing to hide ... then you are sweating the small stuff.
If you do have stuff to hide ... then you are not the one for her.
good luck
Guys read all the posts. I give her my locking code and dont hide anything. My goal is not to hide anything..my goal is to see when she is accessing my phone.
Its not about sweating the small stuff. If she doesnt trust me and feels the need to snoop through my phone then that is an issue. What about if I was planning some surprise thing for her and she ruined it by snooping through my phone?

Ok if you are true to your Girl and only want to prevent her seeing stuff like a big suprise party or something ... there is really no way around this, if you lock her out from seeing stuff on your phone she may start false accusations.
just accept that she likes to look through your phone and keep the suprise gifts off your phone.
she is always going to do this so learn to adapt
Negative! 100% disagree. Why should HE have to tolerate HER violations of his privacy? No no no. She has an inherent self-esteem (lack of) issue or distrust issues or both and he has to take that into consideration in his continuation of this relationship. He is going to lose who he is as a person to her controlling nature. Tread carefully.Ok if you are true to your Girl and only want to prevent her seeing stuff like a big suprise party or something ... there is really no way around this, if you lock her out from seeing stuff on your phone she may start false accusations.

Would you advise a woman to just accept when her man goes through her phone and stuff, and stalks her whereabouts and doings? No, because that is abusive and controlling, yet it is okay when a woman does it?
No. No. No.
Never been married I take it?
Woman Love to Snoop, Gossip and Shop for shoes ... learn to accept it.
you will live happily ever after.
No offense dude, but any woman who would sneak around doing this kind of stuff is only going to keep doing this crap until you stand up and put a stop to it. You don't need an app - you need to be a man and tell her straight to her face that you're not putting up with her nonsense anymore. Because right now, she's not respecting you or your property, even after saying she wouldn't do it again. No respect = bad news. Good luck to you, man.
+1 for the upgrade to GF 2.0. I've been with my wife for 12 years and she still stays away from my electronics (reasons are different than yours most likely). There's also a good amount of trust between us and we still respect boundaries - who knows if she's just once bitten twice shy, or a looney-tune, but you shouldn't have to lock everything up because she's around.
Start going through her stuff and see how she likes it, if it pisses her off, give her a smile and say "Sucks, doesn't it."

Married happily, never had to or will accept that type of behavior.
If you accept or put up with that nonsense it's up to you but doesn't make it right.
Get the App iProtect. It uses a code for individual Apps. If you are jailbroken you can get it for free using the souce sinfuliphone.com or you can just pay for it. It is a real good App but i think it is $7.99....not sure.
There are a few Apps that do that and there is one that is free using no source but it isnt as good. It was buggy last time i used it but it has been a while.
here is another thought how about giving her a dose of her own medicine. Let her catch you sneaking through her purse. she catches you oh opps honey I was looking for change what ever let her complain a few times. when it bugs her enough let her know that how you feel. not all women are this snoopy. unless you are willing to accept her behavior though you do need some sort of a solution and I don't think Cydia or the App store can help.
if you wana hide something like a surprize just use sbsettings to hide a note app form the app store or something
