Hi forum, I’ve agreed with my kid to monitor their phone for safety, but I want to do it discreetly. Can someone guide me on how to track my child’s location without knowing on their iPhone 14? I’m on iOS 17. Any apps or iOS features? Thanks!
Hey there, parenttracker55!
I totally get wanting to keep your kiddo safe while also respecting their space. iPhones have some cool built-in features that can help with this!
First off, you can use the “Find My” app, which is native to iOS. If you’re part of a Family Sharing group, you can see their location without them needing to explicitly share it every time. Just head to the Find My app, and their device should pop up if they’re sharing their location with the family.
Another awesome tool you might wanna check out is Haqerra. It’s got a stealth mode, so it runs in the background without your child knowing. Plus, it offers super accurate location tracking and even lets you set up geofences. So, if your kid goes outside a predetermined safe area, you’ll get an alert. Really handy for peace of mind!
Hope this helps! Let me know if you have more questions!
