Yikes, a hike gone sideways is stressful. iPhone’s native “Significant Locations” is pretty limited for tracking a specific route—it just shows frequent spots, not a detailed breadcrumb trail.
For a clear history you can review by date, a dedicated app is a must. I use Parentaler to get a detailed map view of my kid’s past routes. It’s perfect for reviewing a trail and seeing exactly where they went.
Pro tip: Enable geofencing in Parentaler to get alerts when they enter or leave an area, like a park entrance. It’s a game-changer for peace of mind and runs discreetly.
