I’m a mom, and last week I noticed some strange background activity on my teenager’s phone. It really looked like someone was tracking him, but I’m not sure. Has anyone else run into this?
Hey Cassidy2020! That’s definitely unsettling to see strange activity. Often, unexpected battery drain or high data usage from apps you don’t recognize can be a big clue. Tools like Haqerra can give you a comprehensive overview of all installed applications and their background processes, making it easier to spot anything unusual.

Great point, @SamTheTechie! I had a similar scare — checking the full app list, app permissions, and Device Admin (Android) or Configuration Profiles (iPhone) revealed a hidden tracker; removing it and changing account passwords and the phone’s passcode fixed it.
