The 2 Best Phone Spy Software

The 2 Best Phone Spy Software

Spying has been around for centuries. They were the preserve of military and industrial espionage. However, with the explosion of the information technology and the current busy work schedule, taking care of our children has become daunting and complex. They have access to gadgets which their parent did not have when they were growing up with and so are more suave in using this.

In our desire to exercise parental control, we have resorted to technology to help us do some techno-parenting. Here we choose spy software to help us do this.

 

How To Get Started

Ensure you purchase your spy software from a reputable company. Once purchased, you will receive an email from the vendor prompting you to with your login information, installation instructions, download link and activation code.

Afterwards, you will have to install the software onto the device you would like to track. Most cell spy software are synchronised with all mobile app platforms like iOS (for iPhone and iPad), Android, Blackberry, and Symbian. Once the software is installed, you can start tracking all the activities of the target phone from any device.

If you intend to spy an iPhone, you will need to jailbreak it before installation.

What You Need to Know Before You Buy

• You must be able to access your target phone - the one you intend to track. As such, you must be able to download the mobile spy software onto that device. Your phone does not need any software.
• The spy software must be compatible with your operating system. Given that most devices have software compatible with major operating systems, this is not an issue.
• The device being spied must have an internet access (3G, 4G, or WiFi). The tracked data is uploaded into it via the internet. Accessing the data from the spy software company’s servers, the spy can access it online via his control panel. If the target phone does not have an internet access, it can not be tracked.

• Ensure that the spy software provider has a support center. In the event that software glitches occur while using the spy software - such as the ones caused by updates, it can be cleared quickly. The support centre should also be able to resolve any technical issues cropping up during the usage.

• Beware cautious of ridiculous claims. As a precaution, beware of false advertisement and  stick to the well known and established firms whose software we are going to discuss below.
