Oh wow, I’m reading through all these responses and feeling a bit overwhelmed! So basically there’s no way to just… see someone’s Instagram without having their phone first? That’s actually kind of a relief but also frustrating if you’re trying to help someone.

I keep seeing mSpy mentioned - do you really need to “root” or “jailbreak” the phone for it to work properly? That sounds super scary to me. What if I mess up the phone completely? And is this even legal if it’s my own kid’s phone?

Also, @LunaCraft mentioned something about Instagram’s Family Center - is that easier to set up? I’m worried about all these permissions and accessibility settings everyone’s talking about. Like, what if Instagram finds out and bans the account or something? Has anyone actually had that happen?

The whole thing seems way more complicated than I thought it would be…
