  • How To Stop IM’s From Auto-Updating & How To Downgrade To The Latest Supported Version

    How To Stop IM’s From Auto-Updating & How To Downgrade To The Latest Supported Version

    IM’s (Facebook messenger, LINE, WhatsAPP, Viber, etc,) by their nature are one of the top things on a phone that people want to be able to spy on, and FlexiSPY is proud to be the spy application that monitors over 13 IM clients, the most in the business.

    But there is an inherit problem with all IM applications, and that is that IM’s often auto-update themselves, sometimes up to 2-4 times a week. These frequent updates by the IM’s don’t usually bring some great new feature that tech publications will write up about, the updates are actually the kind that dont bode so well for spy software, encryption updates. These updates render parts of spy software unusable, and it takes time for us to update our software to be compatible with the updated IM again.

    The workaround

    By doing what we describe below, you will be inline with full support for FlexiSPY.

    #1 ) Turn Off Automatic Updates

    Here’s how to turn off automatic updates so that the target device is never notified and never downloads an available update.

    1. Open up google play store on the device (this is the native app for downloading applications to the phone.)
    2. On the Play store, swipe to the right side or tap the toggle button so that you end up in the settings menu.
    3. In the settings section remove the checkmark from “App updates available”
    4. Finally, Tap on “Auto-update apps” and choose “Do not auto-update apps”

    Once done, the target phone will no longer receive notifications of available updates, and it will also no longer auto update.

    Functional Limitation

    Some apps may cease to function properly if their version is too old. Don’t worry – except for WhatsApp, If this happens nothing breaks. The user would open up their app and an in-app message will tell them that they need to update the app. The message will direct them to the Play store where the user will then tap on the “Update” button.

    Downgrading IM’s

    But what if one of the phones IM applications has already been updated to a version that FlexiSPY doesn’t yet support?

    The answer in this case is to downgrade the IM app to the version that currently has full support by FlexiSPY.

    Here’s how to downgrade the IM app of your choice to one fully supported by FlexiSPY. Note that to check which version you should download of the IM app, checkout our compatibility page, here.

    Step 1 – Uninstall the current the version of the app you will want to downgrade.

    – You can do this by doing the following (Go to the settings on your target device -> Find and open application manager -> Open the app you want to uninstall and click “Uninstall”)

    Step 2 – Find the earlier version of your app.

    Android drawer is a good place to get old versions of your app if you’d like to find the APK’s for yourself. Head there, type in your IM app name and then scroll down to find the version that corresponds with FlexiSPY’s version. (Or directly download the correct APK files from the chart we’ve made below:)

    IM Client Version supported
    BBM 2.5.1.46
    Facebook 46.0.0.26.153
    Facebook Messenger 62.0.0.1.75
    Google Hangouts 7.0.113317058
    LINE 5.11.0
    Skype 6.23.0.702
    Viber 5.8.0.1736
    WeChat 6.0.2.58
    Yahoo Messenger 1.8.8

    After downloading the appropriate APKs for your incompatible IM app, turning off the app update notification settings, and turning off auto update, all as described in this article, you should no longer have any issue with FlexiSPY not capturing all of the IM data.

  • How Do I Set My Monitor Number? | What Is An International Format?

    Two of our most powerful features, Spycall & Call intercept rely on having the monitor number being setup correctly. But there is sometimes confusion when it comes to how to setup the monitor number, and even what the monitor number actually is. So we’ve written this brief guide which if you follow through to the end, should give you the information needed to get it set up without hassle.

    To start our guide, let’s look at what the Monitor Number actually is.

    What is the Monitor Number

    The monitor number is the phone number that you want a notification to be sent to when a spycall, call intercept, or SIM change is initiated.

    Uses for the Monitor Number

    Take SpyCall for example. With SpyCall you can secretly create a phone call with the target phone and listen in on the phones surroundings. But the requirement of SpyCall is that a monitor number be set, e.g. the phone that you want to use to tap into the target phone. For SpyCall it might be better to use a second phone as the monitor number, because if you use your main phone as the monitor number and need to call the target phone, it’s automatically going to tap in.

    The same principle applies with the monitor number for call intercept. In call intercept, you set the monitor number which will receive an sms text when a call from a specified number to the target phone (or any phone at all) takes place.

    The last use for the monitor number being set is for SIM change notifications -the monitor number will get a notification when the target phone has changed it’s SIM card.

    Setting the Monitor Number Correctly

    Setting the monitor number is region dependent meaning that regardless of your country, you will need to know the country code. For example, in the USA the country code is +1. But if you live inside the USA you would never normally dial +1 before the start of the number. This doesn’t matter with FlexiSPY, and you will still need to use the country code. For example, say that someone would normally dial (868) 345-7567 to reach you. If you are in the USA with country code +1 then then the number would be +18683457567

  • Política de Devolución de FlexiSPY

    Política de Devolución de FlexiSPY

    ¿Cómo nos encargamos de las devoluciones en FlexiSPY?

    No hay necesidad de solicitar una devolución cuando se trata de FlexiSPY ya que tenemos una de las políticas de reembolso más generosas disponibles. Hacemos siempre todo lo posible para asegurarnos que nuestros clientes reciban el mejor servicio de parte nuestra sintiéndose conformes y respetados. Por eso solicitar una devolución sin ponerse en contacto con nosotros primero es poco razonable.

    Por la razón anterior, FlexiSPY toma la mayoría de los avisos de devolución como fraude y la cuenta es inmediatamente suspendida. Para proteger al cliente, toda la información de la cuenta es recopilada, incluyendo los datos del teléfono monitoreado y es proporcionada a las autoridades competentes para la investigación de fraudes en el uso de la tarjeta y el posible uso indebido del producto. Por favor tenga esto en cuenta si está pensando en usar nuestros servicios y luego presentar una solicitud de devolución fraudulenta.

    ¿Qué es una devolución?

    Cuando un cliente solicita que su banco revierta una transacción de tarjeta de crédito, devolviendo los fondos  al titular de la tarjeta, esto es lo que se conoce como una devolución de cargo. Los clientes pueden solicitar una devolución por casi cualquier motivo; como resultado de ello, es posible cometer un pequeño “fraude.” No sólo el comerciante perderá el pago sino también será castigado con una multa de $25 que beneficia directamente al banco emisor. Es un gran sistema para los estafadores y para los bancos a expensas de los comerciantes.

    ¿Cómo cancelar una devolución?

    Para cancelar una devolución, debe ponerse en contacto con el proveedor de la tarjeta de crédito y solicitar una revocación de la devolución de cargo.

    Esto devuelve la fondos iniciales a nosotros, cancela la multa que recibimos por “permitir” que se cometiera el fraude, y por lo general borra cualquier “mancha negra” contra nosotros por la transacción.

  • Highster Mobile | Added To The Scam Bucket

    Highster Mobile | Added To The Scam Bucket

    Recently we came across a website blasting Highster Mobile as a scam. Not your typical spy phone review site though, this one provides several insights on how it came to its decision for labeling highster as a shady software.

    In this article we are going to address those points with our own findings from our sister site, spyphonereview to see if calling Highster a scam is appropriate or not.

    Examining the Claims of the article

    Claim #1 – Highster Mobile does not work and has bad support:

    Our sister site, spyphonereview had already done an in-depth investigation on highster mobile’s features and whether or not they worked. The key findings were that the following Highster features didn’t work:

    • Call Recording
    • Listen to surroundings
    • WeChat capture
    • LINE capture
    • BBM capture
    • Instagram capture
    • Facebook capture
    • Whatsapp capture
    • Twitter capture
    • Email capture

    Looking at the list on non-working features shown above, it was no suprise to us that users of Highster would be experiencing problems with the software. One comment from a reader of spyphonereview is a great representation for the majority of Highster uses. Here’s the comment:

    “I fell for the Highster scam. I thought I had found some legit reviews of it and therefore decided to give it a try.
    It really doesn’t work as advertised at all. It does record SMS, sometimes. The GPS didn’t work AT ALL. When I emailed their “Tech support” they said I needed to install the latest version, which came as the same install package as the original (I reinstalled, just giving them the benefit of doubt, and wasn’t surprised to see it’s the same thing). All of the commands are SMS based, which is horrible. They do work, except for the GPS command, but the user gets to then see the messages and they can be sent from ANY device. Hell, you could probably send the messages to yourself. I’ve installed this product on a LG L90 D415 which is rooted. Another fun thing to note is that the facebook messenger was being logged, but every single conversation and every comment therein was marked as December 31, 1960. There were no markings of who made which comment in each conversation thread, and the conversation was all out of order as well. The other red flag for this product for me was that the last “news” on it was in October 2013. I wish I’d of seen that before handing over my CC #. I also found the uninstall instructions, and all of the other “knowledge base” instructions to be insulting. They literally told you how to just basically operate your phone. If you follow their uninstall procedure, you’d NEVER be able to uninstall the product. Thankfully, I have a decent amount of knowledge about the android ecosystem and was able to get it uninstalled properly.”

    And this isn’t the only negative review of Highster out there. We were able to find endless reviews of Highster on sites that no business wants to be listed on. 

    highstermobilescam

     

    Besides the blog comments of apparent Highster customers, we scouted for different ways to verify the claims, and we found the proof when we looked at the data of our trade-in program.

    In our trade-in program, we offer aggrieved customers of various spy phone products the chance to trade in the time remaining on their copy for a copy of FlexiSPY. When we trawled through the data we found that a disproportionate amount of trade in participants were, guess who, Highster Mobile.

    Highster Mobile’s Support:

    While we don’t have direct experience with their support (not for lack of trying,) on many of the scam report pages a common complaint is not only Highster’s Poor support, but also their shady refund policy. Grabbed from the site, one of the claims against highster states this about their support:

    “They have such a shafty refund policy – in which their is no refund policy. Even if you have not used tnot issue yo a refund whatsoever. This is the worst refund policy I have ever seen. I also noticed after requesting a refund, that they changed their terms and agreement just to try and trick me into thinking i didn’t read their fund policy correctly.”

    As pointed out in the article, one the biggest clues in gauging whether or not these are false claims against  Highster is the circumstance that Highster are in right now with payment processor Avangate. Payment processors like Avangate has a low tolerance for software where many refunds and chargebacks are requested, so with Highster being excommunicated from Avangate just a few days ago, it makes you wonder.

    Claim #2 – Highster Mobile and Easy Spy are the same product but they have been banned by Avangate marketplace.

    This goes with what we were saying in the section about Highster Mobile’s support but also reveals that Highster has many clone companies on the marketplace, all of which have now been banned by Avangate. Rebranding a product under a new name is a common practice for shady software dealers, this is just further evidence of Highster being a company that you wouldn’t want to deal with.

    Claim #3 – Highster Mobile is a one-time payment spy product.

    FlexiSPY was the first spy phone software to hit the market, in-fact we invented the spy phone. So we’ve seen many copy cats come and go throughout the years. One factor seems to be omnipresent in all of the failed copy cats, and that is the promise of a one-time payment. We ask this question, would a bad software company offer monthly plans? No way.. Within the first couple of days of using software that turns out to be useless, you’d either request a refund (good luck getting one from highster) or you’d simply cancel further payments. What Highster and these one time payment companies do are hook you with this promise meanwhile getting the most possible money that they can from you, it’s a calculated maneuver that seems to have caught up with Highster.

    Conclusion

    From the complaints circulating over the web, and as well as our own tests of Highster, the signs are there to stay away. If you were unfortunate enough to have already purchased Highster Mobile and are unable to get a refund from them then we’d like to extend the offer of our trade-in program to you.

  • How Hollywood Got GPS Tracking All Wrong

    How Hollywood Got GPS Tracking All Wrong

    We’ve all seen it before. Camera pans in onto a woman as she types into google “how to track a phones gps location.” She clicks on the first link in the search results. A page appears on her computer screen, telling her to type the phone number into the field and press enter.

    A few spins of the loading wheel later and boom! Her husband’s gps location pops up with a red bracket indicator, X marks the spot, and he’s not at the bar!

    trackin-their-gps-location

    This is how gps tracking technology is portrayed in just about every soap opera that exists. So it’s no wonder that we believe that it’s so simple to get a person’s gps location.

    But how can you really track someone via their phone’s gps?

    Misconceptions

    Unless you are law enforcement, you probably don’t have this kind of access to gps tracking technology. right?

    While not as easy as typing in their phone number and clicking a big button, there are ways to track someones gps location.

    The first thing to know about gps tracking is that you will need to physically install spy software onto the phone that you are wanting to spy on. This doesn’t mean that you will be attaching a big antenna to their phone, it just means that you will need to have their phone in your hand.

    bear in mind that iOS devices like an iPhone will need to be jailbroken first before you even think about getting your spy on as Apple keeps things secure for the most part.

    If the phone you want to track is an Android phone then you are in luck and no further alterations will need to be made.

    Finally, you will also need to be able to get past any lock screen that the phone has..

    Which spy software fits your needs?

    You will need to do a bit of research on which spy software to purchase, or you can just take our word for it and choose our top pick. Either way, a good jumping point for research would be the website spyphonereview There’s actually a team of testers there that put spy phone software through the reins and then publish their results, unlike other review sites.

    After you purchased the spy software of your choosing, you then need to install and activate it onto the persons phone that you want to spy on.

    If you chose FlexiSPY then you are in luck and here’s a quick setup guide for getting started.

    Will they ever get it right?

    Recently hollywood has been paying more attention to the techniques used in actual hacking, like the show Mr. Robot which has been praised for its showing of real spy tools, including an episode where they showed FlexiSPY being used. But this is just one show that is putting in the research time. You can bet that there are sure to be many more distasteful displays of how this type of software works to come.

    If you enjoyed this article, you can participate in the discussion through the comments section below, or through our social media.

    What’s The Android Spy App That’s Used In Mr Robot?

    Its not every day that our blog team get’s to write about television. Luckily for us though, a series has come out with some surprisingly realistic hackery going on, here are our thoughts on it.

    In the episode “Eps1.2d3bug.mkv”  of the hacking themed tv series Mr Robot, the central character was seen installing onto a phone, software that looks way too similar to FlexiSPY to NOT be FlexiSPY.

    flexispy-being-shown-on-an-android-phone-in-mr-robot-tv-show

    While we appreciate the show researching and using real spy software, FlexiSPY was being implemented in a cloak and dagger way. Because of this, we feel that now is a good time to say again that you should always check with your local laws before installing FlexiSPY onto any phone. We also recommend that you have a read of our legal disclaimer to ensure the use of our software for your intended purpose is legal.

    Nevertheless, it is cool to see television shows putting a more realistic spin on what spy technology can do, and we hope that this trend continues!

  • FlexiSPY | Now Supporting iOS 8.4

    FlexiSPY | Now Supporting iOS 8.4

    Just a few hours after 8.4 was released, news broke out that an official iOS 84 Jailbreak was available, made possible by the Jailbreak team TaiG.

    Immediately after being released, our iOS developers were hard at work integrating FlexiSPY with the jailbreak, and now they’ve done it, FlexiSPY now supports iOS 8.4, and you are now safe to update the iOS device to this version.

    Update now or risk being stuck

    While jailbreaking is perfectly legal, and will not brick your device in any way, Apple likes to keep things locked down. Based on their past efforts to prevent jailbreaking, it is likely that they will soon make another update to iOS, an update which will render the jailbreak null.

    Once Apple pushes a new iOS release, and if you update to that release, expect to be stuck with an un-jailbreakable device for 3-6 months, and of course, if you want to run FlexiSPY on an iPhone or iPad, it must be jailbroken first, which we’ve written a guide for. 

    Once you’ve taken care of the jailbreak, you can go ahead and re-install FlexiSPY or install for the first time, which you can do by purchasing a license on our site, here 

  • Mspy Application | Now Completely Visible

    Important update: on May 28th, mSpy temporarily re-enabled the feature for their app to be either visible or hidden.


    Hot on the heels of the story that Mspy had been hacked, our competitive analysis made another important discovery.

    Mspy no longer allows you to hide the Mspy phone application, making it complete visible to the person that is using it.

    There is nothing wrong with this at all – after all, a parent may want to let their child know that they are being monitored, and an employer should make it clear to their employees that they are spying on them.

    Our team first discovered this change on May 25th, when after doing our routine competitor analysis tests, we realized that the Mspy app was visible on our test phones, and that it had lost the ability to become hidden.

    Earlier versions of  Mspy used to provide an option inside their control panel to allow the parent or employer to make the  visibility choice. We have now confirmed that Mspy have removed this option.

    So what can you do if you are looking for an alternative to Mspy but you need 100% invisibility. The answer is change to FlexiSPY. FlexiSPY has always offered the choice for the application to be visible or not – much the same as any.

    To make changing to FlexiSPY easier for unhappy Mspy  customers, we would like to point out that we have a Trade In Offer, where you can recoup some of your losses against a copy of FlexiSPY.

  • Has Your mSpy Data Been Hacked and What You Can Do About It

    Has Your mSpy Data Been Hacked and What You Can Do About It

    Update – September 5th, 2018

    3 years after mSpy was hacked, and their customer data leaked on the web, it is reported by KrebsonSecurity that millions of sensitive mSpy records have been leaked online — this time due to a security researcher discovering an unsecured mSpy database.

    While not technically a hack, it is still disturbing nonetheless, especially as it is alleged that that mSpy ignored warnings from the security researcher, and in fact blocked further communication with the researcher after attempts were made to contact mSpy’s head of security.

    We at FlexiSPY understand that no system is 100% invulnerable from attackers, however we are grateful that through our efforts like introducing a bug bounty program, 2FA, and performing extensive security audits, unlike competitors — none of our customer data has ever been leaked online.

    Finally, in light of this news, we would like to again extend an offer to mSpy customers who are worried about the safety of their data.

    If you are an mSpy customer, we will offer a trade in discount if you purchase FlexiSPY. Find out more here.

    ——

    Original article:

    If you are an mSpy customer, you will no doubt have heard that mSpy has been hacked, and you are probably worried about the possibility that your information is available on the Darknet for download

    Getting hacked is terrible, but in defense of mSpy, this happens to many companies, regardless of the security precautions they take. And before the mainstream media starts to get glib and judgmental because they don’t like the idea of monitoring, lets not forget that Visa and MasterCard have been hacked, and their customers details sold to identity thieves.

    With the information currently available, it seems likely the breach was carried out by an insider. Going by the reported acrimony between the two co founders, one could speculate that it was an inside job, and not a hack or technology security breach.

    While we take no pleasure in mSpy being hacked and we condemn the people involved, we understand that mSpy customers may be worried about their monitoring data.

    Therefore, we are offering mSpy customers a discount on a copy of FlexiSPY. If you are a mSpy customer, we will offer a trade in discount if you purchase FlexiSPY. Find out more here.

  • How To Protect Your iPhone From The “No iOS Zone” Vulnerability

    apple-ssl-vulnerability

    There’s been a serious iOS vulnerability uncovered recently by security research company, Skycure that you should know about.

    This bug is exploited by means of just a WiFi connection and will put your iOS device into a never-ending bootloop for as long as you are in range of the malicious WiFi connection. -nice going, Apple-

    “It puts the victim’s device in an unusable state for as long as the attack impacts a device. Even if victims understand that the attack comes from a Wi-Fi network, they can’t disable the Wi-Fi interface in the repeated restart state.” -Skycure

    Attackers can fairly easily weaponize a WiFi network through use of a modified SSH certificate which, when your iOS device attempts to parse it, starts the bootloop.

    So, the only way that iOS device owners would be able to stop the bootloop would be to get out of range of the malicios WiFi network.

    How To Protect Against The No iOS Zone

    Below, you’ll find the advise that the original discoveres of the vulnerability have given for avoiding the problem alltogether.

    1. In general, everyone should be avoiding connecting to any suspicious “FREE” Wi-Fi network.

    2. Update your iOS device to 8.1.3, as the attack is sometimes not as effective on this version.

    3. If you are able to get to the WiFi settings toggle before the next crash, try to disconnect from the WiFi network or just turn your phone to airplane mode altogether.

    Ultimately Apple are the ones that need to come up with a fix quickly, and as of the time of this posting, they have yet to disclose when this will be patched.

  • Popular WiFi Routers Are Susceptible To Mass Hacking Says Researcher

    Popular WiFi Routers Are Susceptible To Mass Hacking Says Researcher

    Over 650,000 ADSL routers that are extremely vulnerable to hacking have been ousted to the public by ISP’s worldwide.

    Of the numerous exposed flaws, one of the largest appears to be a directory traversal vulnerability which exists under a component under the name of webproc.cgi. This vulnerability allows hackers to gain access to admin credentials, potentially letting them steal data that’s important to the victim.

    Perhaps the most astounding part of this story though, is that that researchers first discovered, and exposed this flaw back in 2011 but in only a select few models.

    More recently though, a lone security researcher, Kyle Lovett, while analyzing some ADSL routers, uncovered this vulnerability in a huge amount of routers. After further investigation he ended up uncovering hundreds of thousands of susceptible devices located around the world.

    Just taking a wild guess, this happened on such a large scale, and the problem was swept aside so long because of the ISP’s.

    Most ISP’s provide customers (force them into using) their own ADSL modems, even if you want to use your perfectly good one. Maybe they have a deal with the NSA, some custom spy software installed maybe?

    So it’s no wonder that by pushing these modems, there would be a mass risk for vulnerabilities to be exploited.

    There’s actually more than just the webproc.cgi flaw though, there’s several other massive flaws.

    Around 60 percent of the modems have a hidden account, supposedly for “support purposes” with a laughably easy to guess, hard coded password. These 60% of devices all share the same password.

    For a quarter of the routers, hackers are able to take a snapshot of the modems active memory. Of course this is a big issue, because this memory can contain credentials for past visited website, in plain text.

    Worst yet, Lovett was able to track down the IP addresses of hackers exploiting these vulnerabilities, and most of the addresses were coming from China.

    An expected fix for these vulnerabilities has yet to be rolled out, but for the time being you can check to see if your modem is effected by looking at the list.

  • How To Use Ambient Recording For iPhone And Android

    How To Use Ambient Recording For iPhone And Android

    Ambient recording is the ability to remotely switch on a mobile’s microphone, and start recording the sound picked up. The sound is sent to your web account where you can download and listen to it.

    You can start these recordings two ways:

    1. Immediately using the RECORD icon.
    2. Automatically according to a predefined schedule using the SCHEDULE icon.

    NOTE: All scheduled ambient recordings are limited to a maximum of 30 minutes

    This article will show you how to use both of these features so that you can either set up ambient recording to record immediately or set it up according to a schedule and then listen to the recordings inside your web account on your PC.

    How to set up a scheduled ambient recording

    Click the Schedule option as shown in the Ambient section of your online account.

    create-a-new-scheduled-ambient-recording

    You will then need to click the Create A New Schedule Ambient Recording button.

    You can then configure the scheduled ambient recording as follows:

    set-the-description

    • Schedule Name – Type a name for your scheduled ambient recording
    • Start date – Set the start date and time for the scheduled ambient recording.
    • Recurrence – Make sure this option is checked.
    • Recurrence Pattern – Set the frequency of recurrence for the scheduled ambient recording.
    • Range of Recurrence – Set when you wish for the scheduled ambient recording to end.

    Click Save to confirm the scheduled ambient recording and FlexiSPY will do the rest.

    After that, you can view all scheduled ambient recordings you have currently set and edit them as you require or you can click Create A New Schedule Ambient Recording to create another one and repeat the process.

    view-or-edit

    Once a scheduled ambient recording has been set the recording will be automatically uploaded to your web account once it is complete.

    recording-that-has-been-uploaded-to-your-account

    You can then click the Download button to download the ambient recording to your computer.   Once it has been downloaded you can listen to it on your computer using software such as VLC Media Player.

    How to set up ambient recording to record immediately

    If you don’t want to schedule an ambient recording you can simply set up an ambient recording to record immediately according to the time duration that you set.

    To set this up go to the Ambient tab of your web account and click the Record button.

    setting-up-immediate-recording

    You will then be asked to set the recording duration. This can be from 5 minutes up to 60 minutes. Once you have set the ambient recording duration click Start Ambient Recording Now.

    start-ambient-recording-now

    The ambient recording will take place on the TARGET device according to the duration you specified and it will then be uploaded to your web account.

    You can click Download to save it to your computer to listen to using software such as VLC Media Player.

    Ambient recording and scheduled ambient recording gives you the flexibility to record the ambient audio from the TARGET device according to your own schedule.

    This is incredibly powerful and allows you to set the ambient recording (be it to record immediately or scheduled) and forget about it and come back to your web account later on to download and listen to the recordings on your computer.

  • Sending Commands To Your Android Device With FlexiSPY

    Sending Commands To Your Android Device With FlexiSPY

    Sometimes you might want to change a capturing setting in the FlexiSPY control panel. Maybe you’d like to activate our Ambient Recording feature, or change what app’s you’re monitoring. Whatever the case, you’re given the option to choose the method that FlexiSPY will use to send the changes to the phone.

    There are three ways to for sending commands to your Android device using FlexiSPY.

    1. Network (FREE, works on all mobiles)
    2. Push Notification (FREE, but not available on all mobiles)
    3. SMS commands (requires purchase of SMS credits, works on all mobiles)

    SMS credits are an optional way to send commands to FlexiSPY. They are used within Control Center in your online account to make sure time sensitive commands are processed immediately (e.g. Send Immediate – to send all data not yet uploaded immediately to your online account.)

    The default is push notifications, or network. But these are sometimes slow, and can take an hour to arrive – which is perfectly fine for most users.

    SMS commands arrive instantly, and are appropriate for professional use, where timing is important. You can always send SMS commands from your own mobile device, so you don’t ever need to buy SMS credits.

    But for those users who value convenience, and the best possible performance, we give them the option to buy credits directly from inside the account portal inside your account tab.

    Let’s take a look at how push notifications work;

    Everything takes place inside the Control Center in your online account.

    how-push-notifications-work

    Just browse to the category for the command you wish to set and set the options you want to change.

    set-the-options-you-wish-to-change-flexispy

    Click Sync Now when done and wait for the push notification to be sent to the Android TARGET device.

    click-sync-now

    With the push notification sent to the device the changes will then be applied.
