My boyfriend is on the monkey app, what exactly is this and would it be classified as cheating?

If this Monkey app is a dating, friendship or hook up platform, then your boyfriend IS cheating on you.

The fact that he is on this platform implies that he is seeking and looking for other people, I presume girls, to chat with or do other kind of more or less lewd stuff.

One does not have to be cheating physically on someone to be called cheater. Emotional cheating is also a way of being unfaithful and is the first step towards full fledged physical cheating.

Therefore, you have to know what steps you should take and whether you like the fact that he cheats emotionally on you.

“Monkey first came out in 2016 as way for people (mainly teens) to easily make new friends online. It's similar to Chatroulette, only that Monkey is mobile-first and conversations are timed for 15 seconds. If you and your Monkey pal both consent to more time with each other, you have option to keep chatting...

Monkey (unsurprisingly) quickly became compromised with sexually explicit content... CNBC reporters tried the app for themselves, they were paired with users who were "engaging in a sexually explicit act" while another user was "showing off his genitals."

Your boyfriend being on Monkey would be cheating if you were NOT OK with him chatting or doing whatever else—flirting or being sexual—that he might be doing with other people on the app.

Thanks for the MHO.

Cheating is classified differently in every relationship. You both need to communicate more about what is and isn't ok. Without blaming or accusing the other person.

So they and you can know when things have been out of line.

Google says it's an app that connects you to a random person for a 10-second long video chat. Talking to someone for 10 seconds is not cheating, unless you get really creative with those 10 seconds.

Doesn't sound like cheating to me, but he might be exploring new ideas to find ways to cheat on you.

"Exploring new ideas to cheat..." is cheating on its initial stages. It is a preparation stage to physically. This exploring stage is considered emotional cheating since the intention to cheat is given.
