The Vettly difference
An alert tells you there is a problem. Vettly helps you handle it.
The hard part is not getting more information. It is knowing what matters, how worried to be, and how to step in without shutting your teen down.
02
Understand what it could mean
See why it stood out, what kind of pressure may be involved, and how urgently it may need your attention.
03
Start without blame
Conversation Coach gives you a calmer first sentence, questions to ask, and a practical next step you can take together.
A real Vettly moment
See the difference one sentence can make.
A request to move a chat and keep it secret can signal grooming, catfishing, or scam pressure. Vettly explains why it stands out, then helps you approach the person you love instead of interrogating a screen.

Nothing silently activates before the device is approved.
Honest by platform
Clear about what each phone can do.
No vague “full coverage” promise. Vettly shows the family what is active, what needs setup, and what the operating system does not allow.
iPhone
Companion supports deliberate shares, help and review requests, family rules, and visible one-time check-ins.
Two visible options: Teens can share through Companion, and families can add Mac-assisted safety signals with Vettly Bridge after a Finder backup. Neither option creates a live parent message feed.
Android
Companion includes the same teen tools plus optional notification and on-screen safety signals when visibly enabled.
Password fields and verification codes are ignored. Teens can pause supported signals in Companion.
Vettly Bridge for Mac
Add iPhone safety signals without pretending iOS allows live access.
Pair the family Mac, choose a visible Finder backup, and let Vettly Bridge check recent incoming messages locally for focused signs of grooming, threats, self-harm, bullying, scams, and sexual pressure.

Questions parents ask
Straight answers. No fine-print surprises.
Is Vettly hidden monitoring?
No. Pairing is visible, the teen can see what is active, and Android safety signals require affirmative setup. Vettly does not give parents a continuous feed of everything their teen does.
Does Vettly read every message?
No. Vettly Bridge checks recent incoming iPhone messages locally after a visible Finder backup and sends only focused safety candidates for review. Parents never receive a continuous message feed.
How does Vettly Bridge work on iPhone?
A parent pairs Vettly Bridge from the Family app, chooses the child and their Finder backup on a family Mac, and can enable launch at login. Bridge checks for a newer backup at launch and every 30 minutes while the parent is signed in.
Is Vettly Bridge live iMessage monitoring?
No. iPhone apps cannot silently read iMessage. Vettly Bridge works from a Finder backup that the family deliberately creates and selects on a Mac. The first release supports standard unencrypted Finder backups.
How does setup work?
A parent installs Vettly Family, creates a teen profile, and shares a pairing code. The teen installs Vettly Companion, requests pairing, and the parent approves the device before any protection turns on.
What is included for free?
Free includes visible pairing, the shared family agreement, teen help and review requests, deliberate shares, and Conversation Coach for those teen-initiated moments. Plus adds ongoing supported safety signals, the daily pulse, activity summaries, rules, and proactive notifications.
