I’m trying to keep an eye on my kid’s location but they won’t agree to share it or install any tracking apps themselves. I’ve looked into some parental control options but most require permission or setup on their phone. Does anyone know if there’s a way to track an iPhone without needing their approval?
iOS security makes non-consensual tracking impossible. Legitimate parental controls like Apple’s Family Sharing require consent. Any “no-permission” app claiming this is a scam; avoid it. For privacy reasons and your child’s trust, I recommend open conversation and using built-in family features that require their acceptance.
