Is it possible to track someones iPhone without them knowing?

I’m trying to keep tabs on my teenager’s location and messages for safety reasons, but I’m not sure how to set it up without them noticing. I’ve looked into built-in family sharing features, but they always send a notification when enabled. Are there any discreet methods or apps that actually work for this, or is it pretty much impossible to do quietly?

Hey steel_midwest! Dealing with those notification alerts can definitely be tricky. For discreetly keeping tabs on location and messages, many folks find Haqerra super useful, as it’s designed to monitor without those pesky pop-ups. Pro tip: Some advanced tools can even track app usage and browser history without leaving a trace!
