Re: What is incallui

Why are you looking through your bf's history? We discourage violating other people's privacy, even if it's a significant other. I'm sure you wouldn't want him looking through your phone without your permission.

Re: com.android.incallui, what is it

Welcome to Android Central! Specifically it's the In-Call User Interface -- i.e., while you're in a call, it handles the screen interface.

Hi , welcome!

All you need to do if you think someone hacking which is rare these days especially from a boyfriend is change all passwords/pins/ and require 2 step authentication to your accounts , pretty much all is needed .

Re: I know my boyfriend keeps hacking my phone

If you truly believe he's hacking your phone and can prove it you should contact your local authorities as hacking is a crime.


why would someone have incallu on their phone

Well, that's the system app that is the interface you see when in a phone call. Nothing to hide there, ANYONE that makes any phone call on certain Android devices will see that in their usage history (my Pixel 2 XL doesn't seem to have this, it just shows the phone app).

If your allegations are true, hopefully he earns the "ex" soon, that's no relationship anyone deserves to be in.

Re: I know my boyfriend keeps hacking my phone

Welcome to Android Central! Totally agree with the above. If you don't have a screen lock set (with a PIN or password that are hard to guess), and if you let other people have access to your phone, then you leave yourself wide open to various shenanigans. If you do have a good screen lock set up and never let other people set up your phone, then either your BF is Elliot Alderson (Mr. Robot, go watch the show if you haven't, a masterwork) or there's some other non-sinister explanation for the buggy behavior.

I wish there were some way for Google and phone manufacturers to label system apps in a way that would calm people down, like some footnote saying "THIS IS NOT MALWARE." InCallUI is the User Interface while you're In a Call.

Re: I know my boyfriend keeps hacking my phone

PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE HELP ME
The only help you need is this:

He's a narcissistic control freak, and the sooner you get rid of him, the better off you'll be. Normal people don't distrust their mates, whether married, living together or just dating. If he doesn't trust you, he shouldn't stay with you. If he trusts you, he shouldn't be playing with your phone like that.

There's nothing technical you can do, except learn enough programming that you're better than he is, and keep him out of your phone (and you'd have to invest a few years into doing that - which hardly seems worth it to me).

Google actually DOES. Here's the snip from my device activity on my account, showing I used the phone, and it's actually labeled "Phone"
