Many parents are eager to monitor their child's iMessage conversations on their iPhone or iPad, as iMessages are a popular mode of communication among children. However, it has been nearly impossible to do this on the iOS platform using just Apple ID details.
Solution:
Fortunately, Family Orbit has developed a solution to remotely monitor iMessages, making it possible to stay informed about your child's digital interactions even when you're not physically with them.
Requirements:
To remotely monitor iMessages, you'll need the following:
- Your child’s Apple ID credentials
- A Mac VPS (Virtual Private Server)
Understanding Mac VPS:
A Mac VPS, offered by various web hosting providers, allows you to remotely access a Mac computer as if sitting right in front of it. This enables you to monitor Messages remotely.
Recommended Mac VPS Service:
Our recommended Mac VPS service provider offers packages starting at just $15 / month.
