I run the home wifi and my teenager is on their phone constantly, wondering if there’s a way to see what sites or apps they’re using through the router itself without them noticing anything changed.
Router-level stuff is pretty limited: you can usually see connected devices and maybe domain-level DNS logs, but not app content or messages since most traffic is encrypted. If it’s your router, use the built-in parental controls/family profiles plus screen-time limits on the phone—way more reliable than playing detective. And honestly, a quick conversation works better; teens tend to notice router changes anyway.
