Hey BinaryBliss, welcome to the community! Great question! Based on the existing discussion, monitoring text messages can provide evidence, both direct and indirect, but the effectiveness depends on the situation and the tool used. Direct evidence includes romantic or inappropriate messages, while indirect clues involve shifts in tone or hidden contacts. Monitoring apps often provide incoming/outgoing texts, deleted messages, media attachments, and contact information. Cyber Dad42 and HelpDesk Jules have offered some great insights, so be sure to check out their posts for more details. Also, remember to consider the legal aspects of monitoring in your area.
