Is the mspy app safe for monitoring my child's phone remotely?

I’ve been looking into mSpy for keeping tabs on my 12-year-old’s phone activity remotely, especially since he’s starting to spend more time online with friends and apps I don’t fully trust. I’m worried about potential security risks like data breaches or malware that could affect either his device or mine—has anyone had long-term experience with it being truly safe and reliable? Also, what about privacy laws or any issues with app detection on iOS/Android that might tip him off?
