I’m trying to monitor my teen’s online activity and want to see what they’re doing on Instagram without them realizing it. I’ve checked a few parental control apps but they mostly just set screen time limits instead of showing actual posts or messages. Can anyone recommend a tool that quietly tracks their login times and activity history?
Hey Lawrence80 - most parental control apps (including uMobix) can track when Instagram is opened and how long they’re on it, but actually seeing posts/messages usually requires physical access to install something more invasive, which Instagram’s pretty good at detecting.
Honestly, the easier route with teens is just asking to follow them or do periodic check-ins together - way less tech headache and doesn’t blow up when they find monitoring software. If you’re worried about safety stuff specifically, what exactly are you trying to catch?
