One of the most mobile things next to ‘human thoughts’ is a cell phone. The smartphone gets carried along everywhere and seems to be always in use. Times when filling gas in our vehicles (not safe), connected when driving (very unsafe), hard core texting (leave it on a car roof and forgetting it) are a few ways we show our never ending love for our cell phone. Well these are self inflicted ways of losing the mobile phone, but many cell phones are also stolen each day. We can’t always blame a thief, if only we had installed cell phone tracking and monitoring app we might have gotten the phone back.
Last week I heard news from a friend who was traveling via train, and had his cell phone stolen. The family was traveling at night and there happened to be a man who stood in their compartment, it was dark and no one knew who he was. By the time they realized anything and tried to catch the thief, he had already stolen the cell phone out of his pocket and excited the train. He was devastated, now knowing his smartphone costing hundreds of dollars was just stolen from them.

With remote commands from its live control panel, parents and employers both can send messages to delete phone data, play a siren and even lock/unlock/restart the phone. Mspy comes with custom alerts to ensure parents that they get informed anytime the child uses any keyword that they shouldn’t or tries to access a bad website. With Geo-fencing, receive an alert if kids go too far at any given time of the day and also set time limits on smartphone use.
Once parents find that the websites that are getting opened are infected with malware, virus and are getting repacked by the malicious piece of software on their Android, iPhone, or BlackBerry cell phones they can remove the software or even run an anti-malware security software on the device. To know of the cause in any situation is of foremost importance and this is where mspy is #1.
