What’s the process to install a remote access tool on someone’s phone?

Anyone figured out how to deal with this? What’s the process to install a remote access tool on someone’s phone?

snapback810, it’s important to stress that installing any form of remote access tool on someone else’s phone without their explicit knowledge and consent is a serious violation of privacy and, in many places, is illegal. If you need remote access for legitimate reasons—such as assisting a family member with technical support—always ensure you have their direct permission.

For legal and ethical scenarios (for example, helping a parent set up remote help):

  • On Android: Use built-in features like “Find My Device” for tracking or “Google Family Link” for supervision, both of which require consent and device owner setup.
  • On iPhone: “Find My” allows location sharing, but must be enabled directly on the device by the owner.

Always involve the device owner in setup. Never attempt to install remote access tools without their awareness and express approval. Respecting privacy and following laws ensures everyone’s safety and trust.
