Part 1. Why Should I Track My Child’s iPhone

Underage children have not established a complete cognitive system, for some temptation or deception, they can not recognize well. So out of concern and protection, parents need to track all activity on their children's phones to make sure they are safe.

1. Cyber Bullying

It is reported that more than a third of teenagers have experienced cyberbullying. But many victims do not choose to tell their parents, but keep silent, and some children even suffer from depression or other mental problems. Many children do not tell their parents about their experiences because they are afraid that their parents will blame them. And many parents are too busy with their own work to notice the change in their children's mood. This neglect can lead to many tragic outcomes in real life, such as suicide.

2. Stalkers

Teenagers like to share their personal lives on social media platforms, which is sure to give some bad guys an opportunity. They will close to pure youth, especially those who lack love and keep sensitive. The liar will pretend into a patient friendly person, diddle children's trust. What the scammers do may have surprised many parents, for example, to defraud the child's personal information such as credit cards or home address, meet somewhere out of way, and even harm the child.

3. Health Issues

Teenagers are addicted to mobile phones, the first thing they do when they open their eyes is to look at the phone, and they also look at the phone before they go to sleep. Looking down at the phone for a long time will do harm to their eyesight and body. Because mobile phones occupy too much of their time, they have no spare time and energy to participate in outdoor activities, and their physical fitness will decline.

4. Adult content

The content of the Internet is uneven, both interesting and intellectual knowledge, but also toxic to the mind of pornography, violence and so on.

Part 3. How to Find Kid's iPhone Location

Here are four free methods to find kid's iPhone location.

Method 1. Find My iPhone

Find my iPhone is the native solution provided by Apple to find iPhone location remotely. The service is a part of iCloud and is used to locate lost or stolen devices. Nevertheless, if you know the iCloud account credentials of your kids, you can use this solution to locate your kid's iPhone location.

Method 2. Family Sharing

Family Sharing is total free. The Setting operation is very easy. Go to Settings, click Family Sharing, and then select Location Sharing. Select the Invite family member option and send up to six invite links to your family members. When you're done, go to your kids’ device Settings and turn on this feature to monitor the location of their iPhone. These services come pre-installed on iOS devices, and you don't have to pay to use them.

Method 3. Google Location

While Google's Location isn't the default feature on the iPhone, many users prefer it. If your children are also using Google Location, you can access their location history. While this won't let you find the iPhone's location in real time, you can easily check their past location records. If your child has an iPhone as their first phone, they are unlikely to have a Google account themselves. If parents want to use Google Location, they will need to create an account for them. In addition, this location-tracking service is not real-time. You may always be one step behind your child. To use the Google Timeline as an iPhone tracker, follow these steps:

First, go to Google Maps and log in to the Google account linked to the target device.

Click on the hamburger icon at the top and select the "Timeline" feature.

This provides a detailed view of the timeline of the location of the connected device. You can change the date and get important details about the route the user took.

Method 4. Track iPhone by IMEI

Each mobile phone has a unique IMEI number. So, you can use its help to find the location of the iPhone. Not every IMEI iPhone tracker can achieve the desired results.

First, you need to know the IMEI of the target device. You can dial *#06# on the device to obtain the information. Once the IMEI number is displayed on the screen, notice that it is elsewhere.

After that, you can use an IMEI tracker (online or in software) to find out where the device is. For example, TrackIMEI is one of the tools you can use to learn how to track an iPhone using an IMEI.
