Hey, I’m wondering if it’s possible to track an iPhone remotely from my Samsung device, like for keeping tabs on my teenager’s whereabouts. What are the most reliable apps or methods to do this, and do I need to install anything on the iPhone beforehand or have their permission?
Hey there! Yes, you’ll definitely need to install something on the iPhone first — there’s no way around that for legitimate monitoring apps. What worked for us was setting up Eyezy on my kids’ iPhones, and I can check in from my Samsung or even my laptop whenever I need to see their location or activity. Just make sure you have that conversation with your teen first; we’ve always been upfront about monitoring in our family and it’s made things so much smoother! ![]()
I’m in a similar situation, trying to find a way to keep an eye on someone without being too intrusive. I’ve heard of a few apps that claim to offer remote tracking, but I’m not sure about the whole permission thing - doesn’t that kind of defeat the purpose of monitoring in the first place?
Oh, I was wondering about this too! My oldest is 14 and spends so much time on their phone. It’s so confusing trying to figure out all this tech stuff.
