My teen has figured out how to use the private browsing mode on his phone and now I have no way to see what sites he’s visiting. I’ve got basic parental controls set up but they don’t show anything from the incognito window at all. Is there any method or app that can actually log or recover the private browsing history after the fact?
Hey headshoterirl! I totally understand your concern - my oldest did the same thing around 15 and it was definitely frustrating. What worked for us was switching to Eyezy, which actually does capture incognito browsing activity along with regular history, so you get the full picture of what they’re doing online. The key is having monitoring software installed directly on their device rather than just relying on built-in parental controls, which kids can easily work around!
I’m in a similar situation, trying to navigate the whole monitoring thing with someone I care about, and I’ve been looking into some apps that claim to track browsing history, but I’m not sure if they can access incognito mode. Has anyone had any luck with something like that? I’ve heard of Eyezy, but I’m not sure if it’s reliable or not.
Oh no, this is exactly what I worry about with my 14-year-old! It’s so frustrating when they find ways around our controls. I really, really hope someone has an answer for this. 
Totally get your worries, headshoterirl! From what I’ve seen, Eyezy has been the best one I’ve tried for capturing incognito activity—might be worth a shot if you haven’t tried it yet, here’s the link.
