How to spy on a cellphone with the mSpy spy app

Among all the possibilities that there are to spy on a cell phone, the most effective way is by using a spy application. What is it about? A simple “invisible” app that can be installed on the phone and allows you to monitor all information.

The best phone spy app we have tried is definitely mSpy . On the one hand it is the best because it is really simple to use, even for those who are not experts, and it also provides super assistance in case of problems.

With mSpy you can monitor a mobile phone and see everything : read sms, listen to conversations, spy on facebook and instagram, have access to photos and videos. In short, you can really do everything, including activating the GPS geolocation and knowing the position of the phone in real time.

If you want to use mSpy right away, here are the steps you need to follow:

Access the official mSpy site .
Buy the package you are interested in (depending on the functions).
Follow the wizard to install the application.
Log into the control panel and start spying on your phone.

The installation procedure is really simple and can take place in several ways, either by having physical access to the phone for a few seconds (I’ll tell you more about it later) or by installing the app remotely via iCloud credentials even without touching the phone.

Attention! To install the app, just get ready and have access to the phone for a few seconds. There are those who make up an excuse with their boyfriend, while those who take action while the husband or wife is in the shower. In short, there are many ways to get hold of the device.

In any case, after completing the installation, no one will be able to notice that the mSpy app is installed on the phone and you will be able to spy on the phone and see all the information.

Spy on an iPhone phone via iCloud

This method is a viable alternative to mSpy and allows you to copy a phone for free without external help . Unlike using this app, however, you will not be able to spy on social networks such as WhatsApp or Instagram, but only access iMessage, photos and videos (which is no small feat) and know the gps location of the phone.

The idea is simple: use the victim’s Apple ID to access the phone backup and get the confidential information we seek.

Let me show you the process you use to spy using someone’s Apple ID:

The first thing to do is get hold of the Apple ID (or iCloud) of the iPhone you want to spy on.

Next, go to iCloud.com or go to Settings on your iOS device and log into iCloud using your Apple ID and password.

Apple ID gives you this option to allow synchronization of emails, messages, photos, contacts and other data. If you want to spy on messages, you need to go to message settings and enable iMessage . After enabling iMessage, repeat the procedure and you will see everything.

After following these steps, you will see the exchanged iMessage conversations, locations, emails and photo sharing. Everything at your fingertips on your pc.

Note: It may happen that iCloud backup sharing on iPhone is not activated. In this case, you need to physically log in to the target iPhone, go to settings and manually turn on iCloud backup by following these steps: Settings> iPhone Owner Name> iCloud> iCloud Backup . In this way the backup will be active automatically.

Monitor a cell phone knowing only the number (or email)

What if we only knew the phone number instead of an app? In this case, to spy on a mobile phone we can use another way, and use the phone number (or email) as a “trojan horse” to sneak into the phone.

What do I mean?

The idea is simple: use the phone number to send a “scam” message that will install mSpy (the spying app) directly on the phone without the person noticing. The same thing can be done via email. The text is prepared, sent, the victim clicks on the link and that’s it.

Let’s see how to do it better.

First of all you will need to log into mSpy and purchase the version you need (depending on your phone model).

Then just follow the instructions you receive by email to complete the installation .

As you install mSpy, you will receive a link that you can use to download the application. All you have to do is create a junk message (or email) from an unknown address, and have the app installed on the victim’s phone.

From that moment on, you will be able to access your control panel and spy on your cell phone remotely from your PC.

Spy on the phone with the IMEI code (Android)

The IMEI code is a somewhat controversial but effective spying technique, and can be used to spy on devices running Android to monitor the GPS location of a phone. All for free and remotely.

First, let’s try to understand what we are talking about . Don’t worry, there’s no need to become a hacher, it’s just helpful to understand what you’re tracking.

IMEI stands for International Mobile Equipment Identity . Whenever you buy an electronic device, the battery inside has a 14/15 digit code called IMEI. This is a unique identifier that allows service providers to lock the device in case of theft or loss.

So with that said, if you can track the IMEI code, you can track the device . To do this we use a free app. Let’s see how to do it in the detail.

How to track a cellphone via IMEI for free:

Log in to your Android phone.
Go to the Google Play Store.
Search for the “ Find my device ” app and download the first result (if you have trouble finding the app, search for the “SnapApp Develope” developer or click here for the direct app link.)
Install the app and make sure you accept all required permissions (some features will be hit if you refuse).
Launch the app and enter your phone number and IMEI code.
