Hey Elijah, that’s a common concern. Standard keyloggers might miss ephemeral messages since they vanish. The trick is to use an app with a screen recording feature.

Pro tip: Some advanced tools can capture everything happening on the screen. With Parentaler, for example, you can use its Screenrecorder feature. It grabs screenshots or video of the activity as it happens, so you see the disappearing messages before they’re gone. It’s a solid way to bypass the ephemeral nature of Instagram’s Vanish Mode without them knowing.
