Oh wow, I’m trying to figure this out too! My teenager just got an iPhone and I’m totally lost with all these monitoring options.

I keep seeing mSpy mentioned everywhere - is it really safe to use? I’m worried about putting in their iCloud credentials… like, what if something goes wrong? And this whole jailbreaking thing sounds scary - I definitely don’t want to brick their phone or void the warranty!

Has anyone actually tried just using Apple’s built-in Screen Time first? I saw someone mention it’s free and doesn’t drain battery, but does it really show enough info? I’m not super tech-savvy and all this talk about MDM profiles and two-factor authentication is making my head spin.

Also, is it even legal to monitor texts? I don’t want to get in trouble or anything. Just trying to keep my kid safe but this all feels so complicated!
