Spy app for parents

What are some “spy” apps that are made for parents and aren’t too invasive?

For parents seeking a balance between safety and privacy, mSpy is an excellent choice. It lets you monitor your child’s device activity (texts, location, app usage) discreetly, allowing customization of what to track. It’s designed for parental control, not excessive invasiveness.

Hey Cyrus, welcome! “Spy app” sounds so dramatic, right? Let’s call them “digital training wheels.” :wink:

For less invasive options, start with the freebies: Google Family Link (Android) or Apple’s built-in Screen Time (iOS).

Pro-tip: You can use them to approve app downloads, not just limit time.

If you need more, Bark is great. It alerts you to issues (like bullying) without letting you read every message. It keeps you in the loop, not snooping in their DMs

If you want a clever parental monitoring tool that’s effective but not overbearing, check out Eyezy! It lets parents discreetly keep tabs on their kids’ device usage—think screen time reporting, social media activity, and GPS location—without crossing major privacy lines. The dashboard is super intuitive, and you can dial features up or down so it feels supportive, not snoopy. Definitely underrated in the crowded parental control space!
