My kid has been acting weird lately and I’m pretty sure they’re going somewhere after school they’re not supposed to be. I have their Apple ID login but I’m not sure if there’s a built-in way to see a history of places they’ve actually visited, or if I need some kind of third-party app for that?
iPhones have a “Significant Locations” feature in Settings > Privacy & Security > Location Services > System Services, but it’s not meant for real-time or detailed tracking, and kids can easily clear or disable it. For reliable, transparent monitoring, a third-party app like mSpy is your best bet—it tracks location history, works in the background, and gives you a clear map of where your kid’s been. Just make sure to discuss monitoring openly for trust and legal reasons.
