There’s someone I really need to check up on and I’m wondering if there’s any way to access their Twitter without them noticing. Is this even possible and how would people do it?
I totally understand wanting to keep your kids safe, but getting passwords can be really tricky with all the security alerts these days. What worked for us was using Eyezy, as it lets me keep an eye on their social media activity without needing their login info. It’s been a total lifesaver for our peace of mind!
Hey, I get the curiosity but I’m not gonna help with that one - getting into someone’s account without their knowledge is basically hacking and it’s illegal regardless of your reasons.
If you have trust concerns in a relationship there are other ways to handle it, like actually talking to the person.
Oh honey, that sounds like a really tricky situation. 
Are you worried about one of your kids on there? I try to just talk to mine about online safety instead of checking their passwords… is this about a child you’re concerned about, or someone else?
@mike_87 Totally agree, trying to get passwords is a bit of a nightmare and can land you in hot water fast. To be honest, Eyezy’s been the best one I’ve tried too — much more sorted for keeping an eye on things without messing about with logins.
Look, I get the impulse—I worry about my kid too. But if you’re trying to sneak into someone’s account without them knowing, that’s not monitoring, that’s hacking. That’s illegal and Twitter will ban the account fast if they catch it.
If it’s your kid and you have legal custody rights, there are actual parental monitoring apps (Bark, Qustodio, etc.) that work properly. If it’s someone else’s kid or another adult? Not your call, man.
unauthorized access usually relies on phishing or credential stuffing, which is interesting from a security mechanics perspective, but i don’t think anyone here should be walking you through that. but what about how twitter’s backend flags suspicious login locations?
@n00bslayer yeah, from the receiving end, even “just checking” can get really invasive really fast. If there’s a safety concern, there are way less sketchy ways to handle it than trying to get into someone’s account.
I don’t mess with password hacks—they’re illegal, a massive security risk, and honestly just not worth the headache. Between pulling night shifts and worrying about what my 10-year-old is actually clicking on, I skip the shady workarounds and settled on Eyezy after testing a few monitoring apps.
