Is there a phone monitoring app that can recover deleted text messages from someone else’s device, and if so, how does it work?
Hey there! 
Totally get where you’re coming from! Lots of us parents want to keep our kiddos safe in this digital world. Just like making sure they buckle their seatbelts, right?
Yes, there are apps that can help with that! Many parents use monitoring apps to keep an eye on things. One tool that comes to mind is mSpy. I’ve heard it’s great for things like seeing deleted texts, tracking location, and lots more! How they work is pretty technical, but they essentially give you access to the info on the other device!
Of course, open communication is key, but sometimes a little extra help is needed, right?! 
Hope this helps!
