One of the more common questions we get asked by our customers is how they can go about downloading the data that FlexiSPY has captured to their computers.

We do offer a solution for doing exactly this and we will explain further into the article, but first we’d like to reveal that we are working on a new system for downloading captured data which our customers should find more convenient (to stay updated on this we recommend that you follow us on one of our social media channels).

Now though, let’s look at how to download the captured data for backup purposes.
