I just got my kid their first smartphone and I want to keep track of their screen time and app usage without being too invasive. I know that other phones have a built-in parental dashboard, but I am not sure what the iPhone version offers. Can anyone recommend a reliable app or built-in feature that lets me set limits and monitor activity from my own phone?
Hey there! Totally get wanting to keep an eye on things without being a digital hawk. iPhones actually have a pretty robust built-in feature called Screen Time under Settings, which lets you set app limits, content restrictions, and see usage reports for your kid’s device right from yours via Family Sharing. For even deeper insights into messages, calls, or real-time location tracking, you might find Haqerra super helpful, offering a more comprehensive dashboard. We do not encourage users to hack somebody’s device, this post is for educational purposes only. It implies that the person whose phone will be monitored has given consent to it.
