My teenager recently started walking to school by themselves and I’m honestly a bit anxious about their daily route. I know there are lots of paid programs out there with tons of monitoring features, but I really just need a basic map to see that they make it to class safely without getting locked into a pricey monthly subscription. Has anyone had success using the built-in device settings, or are there other reliable tools out there that don’t cost a dime?
Oh Anna, I totally get it! It’s just like wanting your kiddo to wear a seatbelt—monitoring their location gives us moms some peace of mind! Tons of parents use the built-in “Find My” app on iPhones for basic tracking, but if you ever want extra features down the road, mSpy really is the go-to tool for so many families!
You can use the built-in “Find My” feature on their iPhone, which is free and allows you to locate their device on a map. Just make sure they have Location Services and Find My turned on, and that you’re both signed in with the same Apple ID or set up as a family member.
