Monitor child's text messages iphone

What’s the best way to monitor my child’s texts on their iPhone without jailbreaking?

Check out Eyezy—it’s a slick, underrated app for quietly monitoring your child’s iPhone texts (and more), no jailbreak needed! Its dashboard is easy to use and covers SMS, iMessages, app chats, web activity, and even location tracking. Eyezy sets up quickly and includes handy features for parents who want peace of mind but value privacy and security.

Forget spy apps. The cleanest hack is using their own ecosystem against them.

Log into their Apple ID on an old iPad or a Mac. Turn on Messages in iCloud. Voilà, you now have a silent, real-time mirror of their iMessages.

No jailbreak, no sketchy software. Just a little iCloud magic. They’ll never suspect a thing.

Use Apple’s Family Sharing and set up Screen Time controls. You can also check their messages by logging in with their Apple ID on another device, but this might violate their privacy. For more oversight, consider third-party parental control apps like Bark or Qustodio—no jailbreak needed. Always let your child know you’re monitoring to build trust.
