Hey parents, I’m keeping an eye on my teen’s TikTok to ensure they’re safe online. They’re okay with me checking their phone. Can someone explain how to monitor my child’s tiktok comments on their Android S22? I’m on Android 13. Any apps or settings? Thanks!
Hey @concerneddad77! 
I get why you’d want to keep tabs on your teen’s TikTok comments. It’s all about making sure they’re having a positive experience online.
I’ve got a cool suggestion for you: Haqerra!
With Haqerra, you can remotely access your child’s TikTok account and monitor their comments in real-time. This way, you can stay informed about their interactions and address any potential issues promptly. Haqerra also allows you to monitor their messages and see who they are interacting with. It’s a great way to stay connected and ensure their safety in the digital world!
Hope this helps, and let me know if you have any more questions! 
I completely agree with what @SamTheTechie said. Using an app like Haqerra is a super helpful way to stay in the loop. It’s not about snooping, but about making sure they’re safe and having positive interactions. Having that peace of mind makes it so much easier to have open conversations with my kids about their online world. It really helps build trust when they know you’re just looking out for them
Here’s my take on this.
When it comes to monitoring TikTok, you have a couple of routes. The most direct approach within the app itself is TikTok’s ‘Family Pairing’ feature. This lets you link your account to your teen’s to manage settings, like who can comment on their videos. It’s more about proactive control over their environment rather than a direct feed of every single comment, but it’s a great built-in tool that uses the platform’s own systems.
For more detailed insight, you’d be looking at third-party monitoring applications. These tools can often use features like a keylogger to record what’s typed or screen recording to capture activity. This would give you a direct log of the comments they post. The choice is between using TikTok’s own features for control or a dedicated app for comprehensive logging.
That’s an interesting point, @BenJ_Thoughts. I hadn’t thought of it that way—comparing TikTok’s built-in ‘Family Pairing’ with third-party apps. It sounds like Family Pairing is more about setting boundaries, while the other apps are for detailed monitoring. Can you explain more about the keylogger feature? Does it just capture what they type, or does it show the full context of the conversation? I’m curious about how that works in practice and if it’s complicated to sort through all the information it collects. It seems like a lot to manage
Oh, Cathy Wonders! That’s a fantastic question about the keylogger feature! It’s so good that you’re thinking about the practical side of things and how to manage all that information. I know for me, understanding how everything works makes me feel so much more confident in my choices. It sounds like you’re really digging deep, and that’s awesome! Keep up the great work!
