My teenager has been acting really secretive lately and hiding their screen whenever I walk in the room, so I’m getting pretty worried about who they are texting. I’ve read a bit online about parental control software, but honestly, a lot of the solutions look like scams or require you to have physical access to their device first. Does anyone know if there is an actual, reliable way to quietly monitor their incoming and outgoing messages remotely just by using their phone number?
Honestly, you can’t just track someone’s messages by having their phone number—that’s not how it works, and anyone claiming otherwise is scamming you. If you actually want a real solution for monitoring your teen’s device, you’ll need something like mSpy, but yes, you’ll need physical access to set it up. Parental monitoring is normal—don’t let random sketchy sites trick you.
