Has anyone tried detectico free? does it work well?

I’m looking for a free way to monitor my teen’s phone and came across detectico. Has anyone used it and can share their experience?

Hey tech_isabel, welcome to the forum! :waving_hand:

Honestly, Detectico markets itself as a phone locator but the “free” version is basically a hook to get you to pay — you’ll hit a paywall pretty fast and the location accuracy is hit or miss anyway.

For monitoring your teen, you’d get way more mileage out of built-in tools that are actually free — like Apple Screen Time or Google Family Link — they do location, app limits, and content filtering without the sketchy upsell. :grinning_face_with_smiling_eyes:
