Have you ever felt like spying on your near and dear ones? There is a creepy feeling whenever we are in the cyber realm; often subjected to online blackmailing, body shamming, cyberstalking and several other cyber risks. A spyware is that one software which could protect your loved ones by informing you of many such cyber dangers.

However, some apps for spying Android phone add unusual features that fend off their users from using them.

Key Features:

Xnspy iPhone activity monitor app has ample features for both Android and iPhone. A couple of the major is being discussed here.

Location Tracking: The location tracking capabilities of the Xnspy are considered one of the best. It has multiple controls to monitor the location of any person. Some of the highlights are:

1. Geo-Fencing: This feature allows you to set virtual monitoring boundaries in a certain geographic area. Whenever the target person enters any such area or leaves it, you are informed through notifications on your device.

 

2. Locations Logs: If you are a busy person and cannot track the target all day around, this option will inform you about the location details of their phone. Xnspy app provides the day-long location details of the person in the form of location logs.

 

3. Live Location Monitoring: This real-time monitoring tool will tell you the location of the people and the paths they take to navigate. You can track your employees and your kids anytime with this feature. Though the location lacks pinpoint accuracy, it still manages to give a real account of the location.

 

Remote Control

Talking about some other major features, the remote control is another premium feature offered for spying android phone as well as iPhone. Under the remote control you can perform some of the following actions:

1. Record Surroundings: Suppose you want to listen to the surroundings of your target person by not calling the phone, you can simply use their “Ambient Recorder” feature and listen to whatever’s happening around them. Besides listening, you can also save this as the file is provided in the form of recording.

 

2. Lock Device: Another of the remote control features is that you can lock any target device without even touching it. This feature is useful for the parents as the children waste a lot of time while playing games on their tabs

3. Wipe Data: In addition, you can also remotely wipe data off the target phone. You can delete any app you feel is harmful to your kids.

 

Pros & Cons:

Let’s look at the PROS first:

· Compatibility: It stands out in its compatibility with the two most widely used mobile operating systems. The versatility of the app to be used on latest and previous operating systems makes it better from the others.

· Affordable: Unlike most of the specialized smartphone apps, XNSPY is not overly expensive. The packages are flexible enough to make a choice. And considering its discount offer of 40% it is a bargain at this price.

 

Cons:

· No trial period: If you have never used a spyware before you may want to try it first, but there is no trial period offered by Xnspy, but they do have a demo available on their website that gives you some semblance of its operations.

· Call recording issue: This is something we experienced while using it. The app’s call recording feature is not as accurate as expected. It sometimes does not work. But the overall recording feature was fine.

Bottom line:

XNSPY’s compatibility with both the Android and iPhone distinguishes it from others. There are many features worth exploring, such as remote monitoring and location tracking. But these are not the only ones as the app boasts more than 30 features in its premium package. Although there are petty issues with call recording, but on the whole you will find it better than many other monitoring apps.
