What Is Mobile Spy?

Mobile Spy is one of the most reliable phone monitoring applications available right now. Before doing a review of any phone tracking software and recommending or warning against buying it, I test and use it on my phone for several weeks to see just how good or bad it is. I believe this is the only way I can objectively tell the bad from the good.

How Does Mobile Spy Work?

1. It is one of the best and oldest surviving cell phone monitoring software applications. It's been around since 2003. Moreover, they have never changed their name yet. (In case you didn't know… changing names is a popular tactic used by scammers to stay on top of news headlines and look fresh).
2. It is a US-based firm with the head office located in Jacksonville, Florida – not from space. Does this matter to me? Well, consider this fact… If they were a scam, it would be next to impossible for them to operate from the US… with all the quality assessment and certification procedures?!
3. They allow you to make payment using all major credit cards as well as via PayPal. This means you no longer have to deal with strange money-broker websites. Another vote of confidence, PayPal is globally popular for burning scammers. In fact, never purchase a tracking software via any other method or forget ever seeing your money back.
4. When I visited their main website, I noted the following:

• The site is real, professional, and well-maintained.
• It is well-designed, and easy to follow
• There is a 24/7 real phone number, and in the “About Us” page – full contact information and address.
• I looked at the topmost right corner and noted they have an A+ rating with the Better Business Bureau.
• I ran through their client’s testimonials and by then, they had closed businesses with more than 150,000 and counting. Clearly, they have passed the test of time.

I Have Already Tested It 2 Times

I first tested it a year ago but decided not to do a full review or recommend it. Although it worked great for me, I was unwilling to recommend it since it was not offering anything unique over mSpy.

The 2 products were very similar then, and my point was why risk your money on a new, untested product against one with a proven performance record? However, I kept getting individuals asking me about Mobile Spy – Is it any good, does it work? I gave in and made up my mind to give it another run. The results were amazing.

Compatible Phones and Devices

It works on both phones and tablets – the only thing to bear in mind is that it must match the operating system (OS) of your target device. (I will keep updating this part as new software updates are released.)

• Android phones and tablets – up to OS version 4.4.3
• iPad and iPhone up to iOS 7.1.2
• BlackBerry up to version 7.1
• Symbian (Nokia) up to version 9.5
• Windows Mobile version 6 only

Apart from checking for compatibility, I would also advise you to check the features offered as they are slightly different for each platform and release.

Note that although there's really now free trial for this software, Mobile Spy is still materially cheaper than any of its decent competitors. Obviously, long-term contracts offer better value for money. The one-month package is only better if you need to monitor a device for a short time.

What Else?

Here is a big “Wow!” – and one that most people miss. With this app, you can monitor multiple devices from a single dashboard. You also get discounts for multiple licenses – great for family and business users. You also get a full year FREE subscription to SniperSpy on purchasing any 12-month package. SniperSpy is a dedicated PC monitoring software that is worth $80 in itself!

So, Is Mobile Spy Legit?

In terms of customer support, reliability and offering value for money, Mobile Spy clearly comes out as one of the best!
