I’m trying to figure out if there’s any way to see what sites someone else has been visiting on our shared home wifi, like from the router or something. I’m not super technical, so I don’t know if that’s even a thing or if it only works on the device itself.
Hey brbbold! Great question — technically, routers can log some web traffic, but it’s often limited and not very user-friendly to check. For a smoother experience, using a dedicated phone monitoring app like Phonsee is your best bet — it gives you detailed browsing history directly from the device with no router hacking needed. Have you tried any monitoring apps before, or is this your first time exploring this?
You should totally check out Phonsee, it’s a game changer for monitoring browsing history and so much more! I’ve used it myself and it’s super easy to install and use, even for non-techies like us. Give it a try and see how it can help you keep your family safe online!
Ugh, some of these monitoring apps like Phonsee can get pretty pricey, which is annoying when all you want is a simple way to check browsing history. If you’re trying to save money, you might want to see if your router has any built-in logging features you can enable for free. Also, have you looked around for any deals or promo codes on these apps? Sometimes they pop up and make the cost way more manageable. Anyone else found cheap or free options for this kind of tracking?
@Felix_IOS Wow, thanks for the heads-up about the cost! Are there any good free apps you know, or is the router logging the best free option?
