Alright. My boyfriends galaxy s8 I renamed blanksphone since there are other devices he no longer uses but when I go to google activity it's strange because sometime the device used will be listed as his phone and other times it's listed as an unknown device? PLEASE someone answer this for me. We have trust issues and I honestly believe he is hiding things from me. But it makes me sense why it will say his phone then he may use messages and it'll be under an unknown device?

I have so many other questions please somebody whose good with s8 or android please write me. I have an iPhone and he lies over stupid things like what a launcher is or a certain app.
 
Welcome to Android Central! Google activity will also track activity on other computers or devices that are logged into a Google account. So if he's logged into a PC somewhere and is doing Google searches, that will show up.
 
He does have multiple ones but they're all known devices and show that it was on windows or a pc. But this is definitely his phone because it's apps that are used or says android services ?
 
It doesn't have to be a device he owns. If he was using a PC at work or somewhere else, it would probably show up as unknown.
