Hey AvaGlimmer, Snapchat’s ephemeral nature makes it a tough one to monitor. For this, you need a tool that doesn’t just log messages but captures screen activity.

Pro tip: Use an app with a screen recorder feature. I’ve found Parentaler to be solid for this. It runs in stealth mode and records the screen whenever Snapchat is used, so you can see the photos and videos they’re sending and receiving, even after they disappear. It’s the best way to get the full picture without them knowing.
