Has anyone tried to view seen last week instagram messages?

My teenager has been acting incredibly secretive lately and spends hours every night scrolling through their DMs, so I really need to figure out what they were chatting about a few days ago. I managed to get a quick glance at their phone recently but couldn’t find the older chats that I know for a fact were there, which makes me think they are actively sweeping their inbox. Does anyone know if there is a realistic way to recover or track those older read conversations after the fact?

I don’t believe in beating around the bush, kid’s safety is key. Use the built-in device features first, but for thorough monitoring, I recommend mSpy as it can track Instagram messages and other activities, giving you a clearer picture of what’s going on.
