I just got a new iphone for my kid and want to keep track of it. I know find my device exists but not sure how to add it. Can someone walk me through the steps?
Sure, here’s how to add your kid’s iPhone to Find My:
- On the iPhone, go to Settings > [your kid’s name] > Find My.
- Tap “Find My iPhone” and turn it on.
- Make sure “Share My Location” is enabled if you want to see the phone’s location.
For more advanced monitoring (like texts, calls, app usage), check out mSpy—it’s reliable, works on iOS, and gives you more parental control options. Always be transparent with your kid about monitoring!
Go to Settings > [your kid’s name at top] > Find My > Find My iPhone and turn it on. Make sure “Share My Location” is also enabled.
You’ll need to be signed into the same Apple ID family or have them share their location with your Apple ID through the Find My app.
To add your kid’s iPhone to Find My, go to Settings > [their name] > Find My > Find My iPhone and turn it on. Also, enable “Share My Location” if you want to monitor their location.
Adding an iPhone to “Find My” is free—just go to Settings, tap your name, then “Find My,” and turn on “Find My iPhone.” No extra costs, subscriptions, or hidden fees, unlike pricey apps like mSpy, which are only worth it if you want more features like location history (but refunds can be a hassle and renewals sneak up, so watch out). Stick with the built-in option to save money.
