Cheating Spouse: 6 Sneaky Apps For Two-Timers

Cheating? There's An App For That
By

Years ago, getting in touch with a married lover required careful coordination and a well-executed plan. Ringing your beau at home was risky -- what if his spouse picked up the phone instead? Sudden hang-ups could very well raise suspicious of clandestine canoodling.

Now, the proliferation of cell phones and social networking sites like Facebook have made cheating easier than ever before. And the development of mobile apps that help cheaters cover their tracks has made infidelity a no-brainer. Click through the slides before to see six sneaky apps that aid two-timers in their adultery.

6 Sneaky Apps For Cheaters
Slydial (01 of06)

The Slydial mobile app allows users to directly call somebody's voicemail, rather than actually connecting with them on the phone. If your mistress wants to reach you but doesn't want your spouse to find out, she can call your voicemail directly and let you know where to rendezvous. Sleazy or genius? (credit:Shutterstock )
CATE(02 of06)

Advertised with the slogan "Love is blind, we keep it that way," the Call And Text Eraser app (CATE for short) helps adulterers by maintaining a hidden log of messages, calls and contacts. Also, all private information stored in the app can be deleted with one click. And if your spouse happens to walk into the room while you are accessing your hidden messages, you can shake the phone and the the app minimizes, causing scandalous texts to instantly disappear.

TigerText(03 of06)

The TigerText app allows you to send text messages to someone else's phone with a deletion timer. After a designated amount of time passes, the message will be deleted from the recipient's inbox -- that way, you don't have to depend on the "other woman" (or man) to get rid of incriminating evidence. With TigerText, you also have the option to recall a previously sent message before and even after it has been opened by another party. Supposedly, the name is not a reference to the philandering golfer (for whom the app would have likely come in handy). Founder Jeffrey Evans told Time magazine the name was in place prior to the scandal. (credit:AP)
Vaulty Stocks(04 of06)

At a quick glance, the Vaulty Stocks app looks like your run-of-the-mill Wall Street monitor, tracking the market's highs and lows of the day. But not all apps are what they seem; Vaulty Stocks is actually designed to keep private pictures and videos hidden from snooping spouses. Users can store racy photos from their mistresses in a hidden vault within the app to keep them far away from prying eyes. (credit:Shutterstock )
BlackBook (05 of06)

The BlackBook app for BlackBerry allows users to create and maintain a list of hidden contacts (and accompanying text message conversations) that are kept separate from the regular phone address book and inbox. The BlackBook icon does not appear on the main home screen; instead, users must enter a special passcode in order to access it. Worried your spouse will see incoming message alerts? You can customize the alert display to say "System Memory Low" instead of having the name or phone number of the mistress pop up. (credit:Shutterstock )
Mobile Vault (06 of06)
Open Image Modal
The Mobile Vault app not only hides contacts, pictures, videos and text messages, it also backs them up into a private cloud space -- that way if you happen to lose your phone, you won't lose any of your naughty photos or incriminating messages. If someone tries to break into the app by entering an incorrect password, the premium version of Mobile Vault will even snap a photo of the intruder. (credit:Shutterstock )
