Hey Cynthia Thanks for this detailed info on Mobile Spy. I saw too many article on Mobile spy but i never read any article. As i am a daily reader of ComputerHowToGuides so i read it 🙂 Very Informative and thanks for tutorial. BTW My bad i am using Symbian not Android.
It’s a bit scary that we can monitor our children today, but it can also be a great help.
But I think that this can be used for other purposes than just keeping our children safe, because spy gear tend to attract people with a more shady agenda. But your tutorial is good and could be a help for other android users.
Great article, now, I can keep tabs on my friends, my younger ones and even my spouse wherever they are located at without hassle. This is awesome.
Cell phone spy software can also track the GPS location of your target along with call details and many more features. But installing them in the target phone is not a easy task. But Peter you have explained the step by step procedure to install the spy software which is superb. 🙂
Thanks for the comment, Ajay!
