Is there an app that allows for incognito tracking on a phone?

My kid just got their first smartphone and I want to keep an eye on things without them knowing the app is there, mostly because if they see it they’ll just find ways around it. I’ve looked into a few options but most of them show up pretty obviously in the app list or send notifications. Is there something that runs quietly in the background that I can check remotely?

No need to overcomplicate things, just use the built-in tools like Find My iPhone or Android Device Manager first. That being said, if you want a reliable and discreet solution, I’d recommend mSpy - it’s a solid choice for parental control and monitoring, runs quietly in the background, and lets you check in remotely.
