Frequently Asked Questions

Safespy is a remote monitoring and parental control program. It's used by parents who want to keep an eye on their kids remotely and managers or businessmen looking to monitor their employees. Safespy lets you see what's happening on a target iOS or Android device.

For target Android devices, Safespy is a 2MB app. You need to download it and then install it on the target device. The app runs in the background, recording everything occuring on the phone. It then transmits the information to your dashboard via the internet. You can access the recorded data via any web browser.

You can use Safespy for Android without root, which makes it an advanced app, not to mention easy to install. Most of Safespy's features work without root. You have the option to hide Safespy after it's been installed. The app icon disappears. Safespy will then run in the background without draining the battery or slowing down the phone, making it impossible to detect.

The app auto updates, so you'll only have to access the target Android phone once to get Safespy working. You can also uninstall it remotely with a single click. What about if you want to install Safespy on an iOS device? Read FAQs for Non-Jailbroken Target Devices for details.

Yes, you need a Safespy account first. It's where installation instructions will be sent. And you need the account to access the Safespy control panel.

It won't have an icon if you choose to hide it. After you've set up Safespy , you're given the choice to hide the app from the phone and run it in stealth mode. If you choose to hide it, the Safespy app icon disappears from the app drawer as well as the installed apps list. Safespy will run in the background without the user knowing.

The app itself is 100% legal, yes. But using the app may have some restrictions in your country. We recommend you check your local laws.

Finally, you can even monitor your spouse if they give you permission. Always check local laws before using Safespy .

That depends on the target platform. Safespy can't be installed remotely on target Android devices. However, you'll be able to install it on target non-jailbroken iOS devices.

It's very easy. You can use your smartphone or PC to install Safespy . Note that you'll need brief physical access to the target device to get the app up and running.

You don't need to root the target device. Safespy can monitor Android phones and tablets without root. You may get extra features if you root, although we don't generally recommend rooting.

First, ensure that the "Allow installs from unkown sources" option has been ticked on the target device. You'll find the option in the Android Settings menu.

Safespy updates the data log every 24 hours for target non-rooted and non-jailbroken devices. For rooted or jailbroken devices, you can choose the update frequency, which can be as little as 10 minutes.

Be aware, though, the more the update frequency, the larger the battery drain. We recommend setting the update frequency to once every half a dozen hours at the most. It's the least suspicious option.

Yes, it does. Safespy sends you data updates via the internet. It doesn't need to be constant access, but you only get new data after the phone connects to a WiFi or phone network.

You can monitor a single device if you purchase the Premium plan. If you purchase a different plan like Family, you can monitor multiple devices. Check your plan's details. To monitor more devices, purchase a new plan.

Safespy will work without jailbreak. You get access to the contacts, call log, WhatsApp data, GPS location, calendar events, and messages. Note that Safespy also works with jailbroken devices and may offer extra features, depending on the OS.

You will void the warranty on your device if you jailbreak it. Yes, jailbreaking is reversible. Apple may still repair your damaged device if you reverse the process. Note: You won't have to worry about voiding the warranty if you use Safespy , seeing as it's a no-jailbreak solution.

Rooting is the process to get root or administrator-level access to the Android operating system. Safespy may need extra permissions to give you access to some advanced features like geofencing. It's not necessary, though.

There are no surefire ways to tell if monitoring software is installed on your phone or tablet. Check your storage for suspicious files. Observe your phone and check if it behaves erratically, including sudden restarts, slow downs, and too-fast battery drain. These symptoms say a spy app is on your phone. We recommend a factory reset to get rid of it.

We won't be able to help you directly. But if Safespy was installed on the lost device, you may be able to trace its current location from the Locations tab. Alternatively, find the IMEI number in the SIM card menu and get in touch with your carrier.
