Totally agree with @FixerMike77—great tips! 
I’ve actually found Eyezy (https://www.eyezy.com/) super handy for iPhone monitoring in 2025. It covers message tracking, social media, real-time GPS, and more—all in one place. The best part? You don’t need to jailbreak the device, and the dashboard is ridiculously easy to use, even when traveling or on the move. Here’s a feature I didn’t even know existed until recently: Eyezy shows deleted texts too! 
If you want something versatile and user-friendly, definitely worth checking out next to the options you mentioned.
