Top 3 Mobile monitoring apps – XNSPY, FlexiSpy, and mSpy

With every day passing, the number of internet users is increasing. But it also has its disadvantages with the immense amount of useful data and information that it provides us. The importance of technology is not deniable in the development and growth of the kids. But, appreciating your 3-year-old while he spends his whole day using the iPad is not considered ideal parenting. Most health experts say that the excessive use of the internet and social media can promote anxiety and low self-esteem. According to a survey of the Royal Society for Public health, social media apps like Facebook, Instagram, Snapchat, and Twitter have led to increased anxiety, loneliness, depression, and critical body image among people (between 14 years to 24 years.) Parental monitoring apps can help parents to keep an eye on their kids and ensure their safety. You can monitor their online activities, track their location, and check their calls and messages, and much more.

In the same way, these monitoring apps help employers to track their employees’ activities. If someone from your staff wastes most of their time in the office playing games and watching movies, how will you confront them? Well, you can monitor all of your employees and check who spends their work hours playing games and who works productively.

Moreover, some people also use these monitoring apps on their partners. Usually, people who suspect that something might be going on under the image of a perfect relationship or people who are in a dubious relation, use such applications. Well, communication with your partner may not always solve the misunderstanding. So when your mother’s famous tip doesn’t seem to work, and you have a sinking feeling in your heart of being deceived, it’s better to monitor your spouse and saves your relationship. The most common reason to install such apps is to ensure that you know where exactly your husband or wife is. You can also keep track of their phone activities like call logs, text messages, and chats on different applications – Facebook, skype, WhatsApp, and much more. Another reason to use monitoring apps is to prove that you’re innocent and put their mind at ease. It could help your relationship if there are any trust issues.

In this article, you will find a brief review of three of the top famous monitoring apps, XNSPY, FlexiSpy, and mSpy. So, let’s get into it.

XNSPY

XNSPY, with its broad range of features, user-friendly interface, and affordable price, takes the first spot in the top three monitoring apps. It has a solid reputation in the market as well. XNSPY is mostly used by parents and employers to monitor their children and employees, respectively. This app is only intended for legal use, as the disclaimer on its website says,

 “XNSPY is a smartphone and tablet monitoring software designed for parents who wish to monitor their children under 18 years and employers who want to keep track of their employees through company-owned smartphones and tablets. The buyer of the XNSPY software must either own the smartphone or tablet or must have written consent from their children or employees. It’s illegal to use Xnspy for monitoring the digital devices of your spouse, girlfriend/boyfriend, or partner. Failure to do so is likely to result in a violation of applicable law, and XNSPY will cooperate with the law-enforcing authorities to the full extent. Therefore, it is the responsibility of the buyer to adhere to the local laws of their country or region. The software is for ethical monitoring purposes only.”

Its installation process is secure and easy to use. You have to buy a subscription plan, and then, you will receive a step-to-step guide on how to download the software on the device. It offers two subscription packages. Both of them are comparatively affordable. The first one (Basic version) costs USD 4.99 per month, and the second one (Premium version) costs USD 7.49 each month. 

FlexiSpy

Flexispy is another popular app that offers many sophisticated features for monitoring purposes. It has many features that no other monitoring apps provide. However, it lands second on the list because of the over-pricing. It’s a renowned spying app in the market that functions flawlessly. This app has one of the most uncomplicated interfaces, so you don’t need to be a tech savvy person to download and use this monitoring app. Once you have the software downloaded on the targeted device, you can access all the information from the dashboard that it provides. You can monitor and change parameters easily using this dashboard.

Though the features that FlexiSpy offers are rare, that does not justify its overpricing. It has three different subscription models. The first one (Bare-bones version) will cost you USD 29.95 per month, the second one (premium version) will cost USD 149 each month, and the third one (Extreme version) will cost you USD 349 each month. In short, Flexispy is the most expensive smartphone monitoring app.

Unlike XNSPY, FlexiSpy does not offer charge-saving features that result in depletion of the battery. It can work as an indicator for the targeted device to suspect the monitoring app. Despite all of the advanced features, its drawbacks affect FlexiSpy’s performances.

mSpy

Our last on the list is mSpy. It’s one of the most reliable monitoring apps in the market. Mostly, parents use this app to monitor their kid’s online activities. One of the reasons that it’s used by parents the most is the feature that mSpy offers. It is easy to operate, and you don’t struggle to install the software. The installation process usually takes a few minutes. You can install the app on any device because mSpy is compatible with both android and iOS. Another advantage it provides is that it works in stealth mode. So, the person you’re monitoring won’t have a hint about it.

Just like XNSPY, it also offers two packages. If you choose the basic version, you will have to pay USD 29.99 every month, and if you choose the premium version, you will pay USD 16.99 per month. However, it falls on the last stop due to the inflexibility of the features.
