MSpy is designed to run without the target realizing, though, so as with websites, it can't suddenly start telling them what they can and can't use. You might be able to limit this app to x hours use on the weekdays, for instance, and y hours at the weekends, while setting different rules for various categories of apps ('no social media after 9pm') and allowing educational apps to be used for as long as they like. Standard parental control apps give you many more fine-tuned options. You can't immediately see when an app was installed, for instance, or how often it's used.Ĭontrols over app use are limited to a single Block option, where you can prevent specific apps from being launched. Unfortunately, there's no real detail beyond a list of app names. It's important to understand how your kids are using their phones, so it's good to see mSpy provide a list of installed apps. MSpy shows you which apps are installed on your child's device but not how often they are opened or how long they are used for (Image credit: MSpy) App management Even relatively technical kids are unlikely to realize they're now being monitored. There's no mSpy icon on the phone, no notifications or alerts, no sign anything has changed. Once setup is complete, log into your mSpy control panel, enter your phone's details (model, phone number and so on) and you should begin to receive details about the device.Įven when mSpy is installed, up and running, the phone user won't see what's happened.

But that won't work if two factor authentication ( 2FA) is turned on (you have to enter a verification code on the target device.)

Setup on non-jailbroken devices might only require its iCloud credentials, allowing you to install the app without having physical access to the phone. IOS installations are very different, with their own set of rules.

Play Protect disabled, the next step is to manually download the app file from an mSpy link, open it and follow the installation instructions. This isn't a good security idea, but it's necessary to run mSpy.) (If you're thinking, but isn't turning off Play Protect making the device more vulnerable to malicious apps? Then yes, that's exactly what it does. If you didn't, it would recognize mSpy as a privacy threat and not allow the installation.

On an Android device, for instance, you must disable Google Play Protect. (The website doesn't make it easy to find the installation steps, but there's guidance in some blog posts, like this one covering Android setup.) Installing mSpy is more tricky than usual, as it's not available in the app stores and you must do some extra work to set it up. MSpy's setup process isn't just complicated, it can also leave the device it's installed on more vulnerable to malicious apps (Image credit: MSpy) Setup Make sure mSpy is compatible with your devices (click the Compatibility link on the website) and has all the features you need before you sign up. You can't just say, I'm unhappy, it doesn't do what I expected: the small print says you'll only get your money back if you have 'technical issues' which Support can't fix.

MSpy's refund policy is less-than-generous, too. (And that's the whole year, not per month.) Kaspersky Safe Kids can't match mSpy for monitoring, but gives you more conventional parental controls features, for as many devices as you need, and costs just $15 in year one. Still, if you've, say, three devices to protect, that's around $35 a month on even the cheapest introductory deal. The three-month plan is $28 a month for the first term, $40 on renewal the annual plan is $11.66 a month for year one, $16.66 when you renew. Signing up for longer does get you huge savings. How many devices does that cover, you're asking? Just one. MSpy's monthly billing is a gut-punching $49 for the first month, $70 on renewal.

MSpy becomes significantly cheaper when you sign up for a longer term plan (Image credit: MSpy) Plans and pricing
