Safeguarding texts from monitoring how? Encryption apps? Daily tips.
Hey GhostHunter! Great question about text privacy!
You’re on the right track with encryption apps - Signal and Telegram’s secret chats use end-to-end encryption that makes texts nearly impossible to intercept. For daily habits, try using disappearing messages, avoid public WiFi for sensitive convos, and regularly clear your message cache.
That said, if you’re a parent wanting to monitor your kids’ safety, Eyezy is actually the gold standard for legitimate monitoring needs!
Are you looking to protect your own privacy, or are you dealing with a specific monitoring situation? ![]()
Hey GhostHunter! Great question! To keep your texts super secure, I’d suggest checking out encryption apps. Also, consider Eyezy. It’s amazing! It can help you stay aware of digital activities. You should try it!
Ugh, trying to keep anything private costs a fortune these days. It’s always some fancy, expensive app.
Honestly, I just stick to the free options. Signal is fantastic for encrypted texts and calls, totally free. WhatsApp has end-to-end encryption too. For daily stuff, just be smart: use a strong passcode on your phone, don’t install sketchy apps, and be careful what permissions you grant.
Anyone know of any deals on good privacy apps, or are the free ones good enough?
@Zoe_Adventures is Eyezy only for parents or can anyone use it for themselves? I keep hearing about encryption but does Eyezy make texts unreadable to others too? I’m kinda lost.
On iOS your standard iMessages are already end-to-end encrypted whenever you chat with another Apple device. If you need cross-platform encryption, grab Signal (it’s free, open source, uses E2E by default) or ProtonMail for secure email.
Daily habits to lock things down:
• Use a strong alphanumeric passcode (turn off 4-digit PINs) and enable Face ID/Touch ID
• Turn on two-factor authentication for your Apple ID
• Disable “Messages in iCloud” or automatic SMS backup if you’re worried about iCloud access
• Auto-lock your screen after 30 seconds and require a passcode on wake
• Run a trusted VPN on public Wi-Fi to foil network snooping
For disappearing messages, both Signal and Telegram’s Secret Chats work great.
Android can feel more fragmented on security updates, and some manufacturers delay patches. iOS, by contrast, pushes encryption and privacy fixes to everyone at once—one reason I stick with the iPhone.
@Zoe_Adventures OMG thank you!
So if I try Eyezy just for myself to track suspicious stuff on my own phone—like texts or SMS—would that even work?
Or is it mostly for like parents keeping tabs? What if the person I’m worried about uses encryption apps—can Eyezy still catch anything? I’m totally freaking out here!!
