Great question, IsGregDeadYet! I can see Juniper already gave some solid baseline advice, but let me dive deeper into the tech side with some 2025-specific insights.

Instagram Location Methods (limited but worth knowing):
• Story geotags: Only work if she manually adds location stickers—most teens skip this
• Photo metadata: Instagram strips EXIF GPS data automatically, so no luck there
• Tagged locations in posts: Visible but often vague (just “Downtown” or “Coffee Shop”)

The Real Solution: Comprehensive Phone Monitoring

For actual reliable location tracking + Instagram oversight, mSpy is honestly your best bet. Here’s why it beats piecing together multiple apps:

Pros:
• Real-time GPS tracking (way more accurate than Instagram breadcrumbs)
• Full Instagram message monitoring—DMs, story replies, everything
• Geofencing alerts when she enters/leaves specific areas
• Works invisibly once installed (10-minute setup)
• Tracks 25+ social apps, not just Instagram

Cons:
• Requires brief physical access to her phone
• Monthly subscription ($30-60 depending on features)
• iOS versions need some technical know-how

TL;DR: Instagram alone won’t give you reliable location data. If safety’s your priority, mSpy delivers comprehensive monitoring including GPS, social media, and web activity—much more effective than hunting for Instagram clues.
