> surely I'd see the activity of the keystrokes being sent when using my device, no?

That was my first thought as well. Then I remembered how much time my device spends in my pocket or on my nightstand

Right, but can it enter keystrokes when the device is locked? As in use the device "behind" the lock screen?

I don't have a device lock because I keep the thing on my body and anyone violating that will also get the password anyhow and I don't want to have to authenticate a million times a day. That logic worked until now I guess :/
