Calls & Messages FAQ

How can parents monitor text messages on a child’s phone with FamiSafe?

After the child’s device is connected and the required permissions are enabled, open Calls & Messages in FamiSafe to review supported call logs and text-message history. Depending on the device and setup, additional components such as FamiSafe Kids Plus or FamiSafe Connect may be required.

What call details can parents see in FamiSafe?

FamiSafe can show available call-history details such as the contact or phone number, call time, and call duration from a connected child device. Records can refresh automatically or be refreshed manually.

Find more specific steps on our guide page.

Does Calls & Messages work with an iPhone child device?

FamiSafe supports the Calls & Messages feature for supervised iOS devices, but the setup is different from Android. FamiSafe Connect on a Windows or Mac computer may be required to upgrade monitoring capabilities on the child’s iPhone or iPad. Follow the current in-app setup instructions because feature availability can depend on the device, iOS version, and permissions.

Should parents tell children that call and message monitoring is enabled?

For most families, transparency is the better approach. Explain what is being reviewed, why the feature is being used, and what types of situations would lead to parental intervention. Laws and consent requirements vary by location, so parents should also follow applicable local rules and only monitor devices they are authorized to supervise.
