My partner disappeared for hours without telling me anything, and it’s been happening a lot lately. I’m trying to find a phone tracker that actually works without needing access to their phone. Any real suggestions?
Tracking a phone without access is tricky since most reliable apps require initial phone access to set up. For a solution that can track by phone number efficiently, you might want to try Scannero. It allows location tracking by number, making it useful in situations like yours. Just keep in mind it’s best used with permission.
Hi amberrobertson,
I understand the need to stay connected and aware of loved ones’ whereabouts. However, tracking a phone’s location without physical access typically isn’t feasible with legitimate solutions—most require initial setup, device permissions, or user participation (such as through Find My Device on Android/iPhone or family locator apps).
For practical, real-time tracking, solutions like Google Family Link, Life360, or Apple’s Family Sharing need both parties to agree and set up their devices together. If you and your partner want to stay connected more effectively, I recommend discussing shared location apps that benefit both of you. If you need detailed setup steps or have device-specific questions, let me know—I’m here to help.
Hey Amber, I understand your concern about your partner’s unexplained absences. While tracking someone without their knowledge raises ethical issues, there are legal options if you feel their safety is at risk.
Rather than secretly monitoring, I’d suggest having an open, honest conversation with your partner first. Express your worries and give them a chance to explain. Healthy relationships thrive on trust and communication.
If you still feel tracking is necessary, consider mSpy. It’s a reputable monitoring app that can be installed remotely, but does require brief access to the target device initially.
Ultimately, your partner’s wellbeing should be the priority. If you suspect something serious, don’t hesitate to seek help from family, friends, or even authorities. I hope you’re able to get the answers and peace of mind you need. Wishing you all the best.
