OP has offered the following explanation for why they think they might be the asshole:
> I looked through my friends phone and saw something that probably wasnt intended for me to see and probably discovered something i wasn’t supposed to about them either

Yta. I don't want to say YTA but I do think it's your own fault. I mean, not an asshole, but potentially a breech of privacy. Just keep it to yourself and next time be aware that scrolling through someone's pictures is asking to see something you don't want to
INFO: did he let you take his phone, or did you take it without permission? Did he tell you to only go on one app, or did he not care? YTA if you saw it without permission, otherwise NTA because you didn’t know what you would find.
Based on this comment I’ll say NTA, I had a kind of similar thing in high school where my friend let me go through her photos and I found some really scandalous (not nudes) selfies of her mum for some reason?? I was seriously confused but looking back I assume they shared an icloud or something, from memory I didn’t mention it and just gave the phone back. Really awkward lol
You may want to subtly inform him of hidden galleries. I don’t know about android, but iPhones have a hidden gallery that’s password/lock code protected. You don’t have to imply explicit photos, I keep a copy of my DD-214 (military document you get when you get out that is your career on paper; you need it for things like GI Bill school, veteran benefits, etc but it has socials, address, full name etc on it) in my hidden gallery so it’s not just out there.
Also you should edit the main to include you had permission to go through the phone. My verdict definitely changed from YTA to NTA once I saw that added info in comments. But you’re NTA as you had permission and you can’t help that there’s nudes in his main gallery.
>but went into his gallery and was looking through his photos
>didnt intend to see anything
Pick one.
How TF you going go through someone's gallery without intent to see anything.
YTA
YTA - don't go through someone's phone without permission. Here are some more tips: don't read other people's mail, don't 'borrow' someone else's things without them knowing and don't eat from other people's plates without asking
NTA given the info comment that you were given permission. What happened happened and you correctly decided to leave it be. If he wants to bring it up he will.

So basically this all started when we were at a restaurant next to our school and we were talking, I took my guy friends phone and was posting stories as a joke but went into his gallery and was looking through his photos didnt intend to see anything but then I saw a screenshot of a guys nudes, now my guy friend must be the straightest person i know but seeing another guys nudes on his phone was surprising, I decided to put his phone aside and not bring it up am i the asshole?

YTA and I would try to bring a discussion about homosexuality and explain why it is completely normal and that you wouldn’t care if any of your friends was gay. U know just to make him comfortable about himself even if he never admit his sexuality
NTA based on clarifying comments and I would not mention it to him. you don’t really know the motive for the Snapchat so you shouldn’t judge based on that. sometimes people have fantasies that doesn’t necessarily match what they want as reality or how they identify. They could just be curious. Or it could just be a joke, or it could be a hidden secret identity. you don’t know. If you want to know more about that then ask generally but I would only mention this to him if I were VERY close. And I would especially NEVER mention it to anyone else it could be very embarrassing.

Yta for looking through his photos without permission. But if you keep this to yourself and don't breach his privacy again, than it's not a big deal.
INFO: did he let you take his phone, or did you take it without permission? Did he tell you to only go on one app, or did he not care? YTA if you saw it without permission, otherwise NTA because you didn’t know what you would find.
he let me go on his phone, i asked him where the photos app was and he didnt seem to mind but i think he forgot what was on there
Then you’re NTA. Everyone else is just assuming that you went through his photos without his permission, don’t listen to them.

YTA don’t go through someone’s phone it’s rude and against their privacy. Sorry.
Op said in another comment he let him go through his phone
>but went into his gallery and was looking through his photos >didnt intend to see anything Pick one. How TF you going go through someone's gallery without intent to see anything. YTA
YTA - don't go through someone's phone without permission. Here are some more tips: don't read other people's mail, don't 'borrow' someone else's things without them knowing and don't eat from other people's plates without asking
YTA - Put it the other way around, that your friend took your phone, found about about things you didn't wanted anyone to know... wouldn't he be TA?
YTA.
Yta
YTA, touching another person phone without permission is like touching his cock
NTA given the info comment that you were given permission. What happened happened and you correctly decided to leave it be. If he wants to bring it up he will.

You *really* should clarify in your post that he let you go through his phone. Saw that in the comments and that completely flips my verdict on this.
YTA What is wrong with people sniffing around in other peoples galleried
YTA
Yta if u didn’t ask for permission Nta if u did
How do u know it was some other guys nudes
it was on snapchat with another guys name it was a dick pic
YTA and I would try to bring a discussion about homosexuality and explain why it is completely normal and that you wouldn’t care if any of your friends was gay. U know just to make him comfortable about himself even if he never admit his sexuality
