Technology has done a lot of wonderful things for humanity. Right at the top of the list is the ability to stay in touch with each other, which has allowed us to know that our loved ones are safe, no matter where in the world they may be. There are other ways that tech allows us to keep our families safe, too. For example, there\u2019s software that\u2019ll allow you to track the location history of a mobile number. With this, you\u2019ll be able to see exactly where your child has been — and then take action if there\u2019s anything that looks suspicious.<\/span><\/p>\n

Of course, looking after your kids isn\u2019t the reason you may look into tracking the location history of a mobile number. You may also just want to look at where you\u2019ve traveled in the past. In this blog, we\u2019re going to look at a few easy ways that you can track the location history of a phone.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

\"Track<\/p>\n

Google Timeline<\/b><\/h3>\n

It\u2019ll come as no surprise that Google features on this list. After all, the tech giant has some of the most advanced tools in the world and has access to a whole range of data. One of their more interesting features is Google Timeline<\/a>, which stores a list of the more frequently visited places, which you can then view online. This is useful for tracking your own movements — and that can be especially fun if you\u2019re regularly traveling! You can also use it to view the movements of other people, such as your children, though to do that, you\u2019ll need to have their Google login. But once you have their log-in details, you\u2019ll be able to open up a list of places they commonly visit straight from your phone or desktop browser.<\/span><\/p>\n

mTracker for Android<\/b><\/h3>\n

\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Another option for tracking someone\u2019s phone<\/a> is to use mTracker for Android<\/a>. In order to do this, you\u2019ll need to have the app installed on your phone and also on the phone of the person you want to track. So if it was your child, family member, or friend, then you\u2019d have to ask them to download the app from the store too. It\u2019s primarily used by businesses who need to keep tabs on their employees who are working in the field. <\/span><\/p>\n

\"m\"<\/span><\/p>\n

One of the good features of this app is that, while you can get live updates about the other person\u2019s location, you can also get updates even if they go offline. That works by keeping the person\u2019s location stored locally; when the internet connection returns, it is uploaded to the server.<\/span><\/p>\n

This is a free service that is currently only available on Google Play, but an iPhone version is in the works.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

TeenOrbit<\/b><\/h3>\n

TeenOrbit<\/a> is a really handy service that helps to give parents plenty of peace of mind relating to their children. If you have the Apple ID credentials of your child\u2019s iPhone, then you\u2019ll be able to retrieve their location no matter where they are. There are many reasons why this would be useful, including helping you to locate your child if they stop answering their calls or texts. The presentation of the locations is good, too — you can take a \u2018map view\u2019 or look at a list of where they\u2019ve been.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

\"TeenOrbit\"<\/p>\n

The ability to “locate where your child has been<\/a>” is just one of the many benefits of using TeenOrbit. You\u2019ll also be able to look at useful information such as their contacts, the websites they\u2019re visiting on their phone, the photos they\u2019re taking, who they\u2019re calling, and more.<\/span><\/p>\n

Monitor Phone Usage with Family Orbit<\/b><\/h2>\n

If you want complete peace of mind relating to what your child is doing on their phone, then look at signing up with Family Orbit, which is considered to be the best service available. There\u2019s no shortage of things that you can do once you\u2019re set up. You\u2019ll be able to look at their texts, calls, photos, and what they\u2019re doing on social media, all by simply clicking a few buttons. It\u2019s possible to sign up for a free trial<\/a>, so you can give the service a try before deciding if you want to subscribe.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

\"Family<\/a><\/p>\n

Features of Family Orbit<\/b><\/h3>\n

As we mentioned earlier: Family Orbit is considered to be the leading such service available. And there\u2019s a good reason why it has that reputation — the service comes jam-packed with features! So let\u2019s take a look at what you can expect once you\u2019re all set up.<\/span><\/p>\n

GPS Tracker<\/span><\/h4>\n

Want to know where your children are? Of course, you do — if you don\u2019t, then it\u2019ll be difficult to get any level of peace of mind. With Family Orbit, you\u2019ll be able to know where they are at all times just by opening up your app. There\u2019s a real-time GPS tracker, but that\u2019s not the only feature. You can also easily view their location history and set up a mobile geofence — when they step outside of the area that you\u2019ve allowed them to go to, you\u2019ll get a notification on your phone. It\u2019s not hard to see how that feature would be useful!<\/span><\/p>\n

Phone Usage<\/span><\/h4>\n

It\u2019s not just where your child is that matters. What they\u2019re doing on their phone is also crucial. When you have Family Orbit, you\u2019ll have access to more or less everything that you\u2019d want to know about their phone use. For example, you\u2019ll be able to monitor their text messages<\/a>, their photos, who they\u2019re calling, and who they\u2019re talking to on Whatsapp, among other features.<\/span><\/p>\n

Parental Controls<\/span><\/h4>\n

With the Android app, you\u2019ll be able to limit what your child is able to do on their device, such as blocking websites and preventing them from downloading apps. On iOS, you can block apps<\/a> and filter websites<\/a> with ScreenTime.<\/span><\/p>\n

Conclusion<\/b><\/p>\n

As we\u2019ve seen, there\u2019s no shortage of options when it comes to tracking the location history of a mobile number. If you\u2019re ready to gain the peace of mind that comes from knowing where your family members are, then be sure to sign up for a free trial of Family Orbit. We\u2019re sure you won\u2019t regret it!<\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
