To check your child’s bookmarks on the mSpy dashboard, log in to your mSpy account and head over to the control panel. Open the ‘Internet Browsing’ section and navigate to ‘Bookmarks’. There you will find a list of bookmarked websites along with their URLs and bookmark dates.

 

Beginnings

I recently got wind of something interesting about mSpy - its ability to access bookmarks. Naturally, I had to put it through its paces as part of an extensive test of other features. And wow, what a performance!

Curious about how I managed to check my child’s bookmarks? Let me tell you all about it – including what else I stumbled across during my little adventure.

 

Step-by-Step Access to Bookmarks

  1. Logging into the mSpy Account: Things began with me logging into my mSpy account which is pretty straightforward.
  2. Entering the Dashboard: After logging in, I was taken straight to the software’s dashboard. This is where everything happens.
  3. Navigating to 'Internet Usage': In order to get started on checking bookmarks, I looked for the ‘Internet Usage’ section in the dashboard.
  4. Locating 'Browser Bookmarks': I then found myself inside this section where there are plenty more options to select from. One of those was obviously what we’re here for!

 

Discovering Online Interests

The Browser Bookmarks page displayed all websites that were saved on my kid's device along with their respective URLs—and sometimes even the date they were added. It was fascinating being given this glimpse into their online world with details on interests, areas of research, and sites they frequent.

 

Regular Monitoring for Updated Insights

As you’d expect, new bookmarks appeared here over time as they continued their web browsing habits. So if you decide use this feature yourself in order to learn more about your child's interests (and maybe strike up some conversations), don’t forget that you’ll want to keep checking back here.

 

In Retrospect from a Parent's Perspective 

Checking their bookmarks was about more than just seeing where they liked to spend their time on the internet. It was about understanding them, guiding them toward safe and responsible usage, and helping me get more involved in their world.

I can’t stress enough how easy it was thanks to this mSpy Bookmarks app. It gave me a simple but detailed look at what kinds of online content my child is into. The fact that it’s user-friendly is important too considering there’s no other way I would know nearly enough about their digital life.

This whole endeavor turned out to be valuable for multiple reasons — not only did I learn about my child's bookmarks, but I also learned a lot from the bookmarks themselves.
