FAQs
If any questions left
How can I see what apps my child is using?
With iLocator, you can monitor your child’s app usage, including which apps they use, how long they spend on them, and notification activity. Alternatively, check their device’s App Library or App Store purchase history (if shared via Family Sharing). iLocator provides more detailed insights, such as data usage and time reports, for comprehensive monitoring.
How do I view apps downloaded on my child’s device?
If you share an App Store or Google Play account or use Family Sharing, you can view downloaded apps via the account’s purchase history. For independent accounts, use iLocator to access detailed reports on installed apps, usage times, notifications, and data consumption, enabling closer monitoring of your child’s digital activity.
Can I track how many times an app has been downloaded?
Directly tracking app download counts requires access to the App Store or Google Play account. However, iLocator provides detailed daily activity reports, including which apps are used most, usage duration, notification frequency, and data consumption, offering a comprehensive view of your child’s app activity without needing direct account access.
Why can’t I enable app tracking on my iPhone?
If app tracking isn’t working on an iPhone, check the following:
- iOS Version: Ensure the device runs iOS 14.5 or later.
- Permissions: Go to Settings > Privacy > Tracking and enable tracking for iLocator.
- Restrictions: Check Settings > Screen Time > Content & Privacy Restrictions > Privacy to ensure tracking isn’t restricted.
- iCloud Account: Verify you’re logged into iCloud (Settings > [Your Name] > iCloud). Alternatively, use iLocator for reliable app tracking across iOS and Android devices.
