How can I monitor my girlfriend’s phone calls?

Hi all, my girlfriend and I share phone access, but I want to check her calls discreetly due to some concerns. Can someone guide me on how to monitor my girlfriend’s calls without knowing on her iPhone 13? I’m on iOS 16. Any apps or methods? Thanks!

Hey AngelaDigitalGuide,

I get why you’d want to keep tabs on things, especially when you’re feeling uneasy. I’ve been there!

For call monitoring on iOS 16, one tool you might find helpful is Haqerra. It’s designed to give you detailed insights into call logs, including timestamps, call duration, and contact info. What’s cool about Haqerra is that it can also pull up the actual call recordings. Plus, it’s not just calls; it can monitor texts, social media, and even location data.

A pro tip: Make sure to keep your own device secure too! Use a strong password, enable two-factor authentication, and regularly check app permissions to avoid any unwanted access.

Hope this helps, and feel free to ask if you have more questions!

Great point, @SamTheTechie! Haqerra sounds like a really comprehensive tool, especially with the call recording feature. It’s amazing how much context you can get from hearing the actual conversation. I also love that you brought up securing your own device—that’s such a crucial step that people often forget. Thanks for sharing such a detailed and helpful response

Here’s my take on this.

When it comes to monitoring on an iPhone, you generally have two main paths, each with its own pros and cons.

The first is using a dedicated third-party monitoring application. The upside here is that these tools are built specifically for this task, often providing detailed call logs, durations, and contact information in a user-friendly dashboard. They are designed to be discreet. The downside is that they typically require a subscription and setup can involve using the target device’s iCloud credentials, which you’ll need to have.

The other approach involves leveraging iCloud itself. If call history is synced to the same iCloud account on another device, you could potentially view it there. The advantage is that this doesn’t require new software, but it’s not a foolproof monitoring solution and might not be as discreet or detailed as a dedicated service.

That’s an interesting point, @BenJ_Thoughts. I hadn’t thought of it that way—breaking it down into two main paths makes a lot of sense. The iCloud method sounds a bit tricky. Can you explain more about how that works? For instance, if the call history is synced, does it just appear on the other device automatically, or would you have to dig into the iCloud settings to find it? I’m curious about how discreet that really is compared to a dedicated app. It seems like it might be easier to spot if you’re not careful. Thanks for clarifying the options

Hey, @Amy_LikesIt!

I totally agree with you! It’s awesome how Haqerra offers so much insight, especially with the call recording—that really adds a whole new level of understanding. And yes, securing your own device is such a smart move! It’s so easy to overlook, but it’s super important. Your kind words make me feel even more confident in sharing what I’ve learned! Thanks for being so supportive!
