MobiStealth PRO-X Now Supports CDMA (Sprint & Verizon)
Posted by: | Comments
************************
UPDATE> FEB 20, 2010: I want to clarify my previous post about MobiStealth working on CDMA networks. It seems I might have caused a bit of confusion, so please read this update.
My announcement that MobiStealth PRO-X now supporting CDMA networks such as Verizon and Sprint is valid, BUT so far it’s only been confirmed on both the HTC Hero and HTC Eris phones. No other Android phones have been tested yet other than the Droid (which is still causing a few problems), so if you are buying MobiStealth PRO-X because it now works on CDMA networks, DO NOT buy it if your target does not have either the HTC Hero or Eris phones. As soon as additional phones are supported (such as the Droid), I’ll post another update.
************************
I got a bit of interesting news today. It seems that MobiStealth’s top of the line PRO-X Android spy product, now supports phones that are on CDMA networks such as Verizon & Sprint.
Prior to this announcement, if you wanted to use the call recording feature found on MobiStealth’s PRO-X version, it would only work on Android phones that are on GSM networks. This announcement is great news for anyone wanting to listen to recordings of their target’s phone calls, but it’s also great for MobiStealth as a company, since no other spy phone vendor has a call recording or call intercept feature that works on CDMA networks. MobiStealth is the first to offer such feature.
Now one thing to point out is that not all Android phones are supported. For some reason, the DROID is having slight issues with it, but so far it’s been tested rigorously on the HTC Hero and HTC Eris phones. I’m sure it’s just a matter of days before we’ll see support for the Droid and other phones.

MobiStealth PRO-X | New ANDROID SPY Software Unleashed!!
Posted by: | Comments
A new spy phone vendor called Mobi Stealth, recently announced immediate availability of their PRO-X Android spy software that has spy phone features not seen anywhere else. Although MobiStealth is the “new kid” on the block, based on what they’ve managed to release, they have a very bright future ahead of them. No other company selling Android spy software (or any type of spy phone software) can claim to have more features than MobiStealth. It really does stand in a class of it’s own.
Is it the best money can buy? From my research, it seems to be the best spy phone software on the market (feature wise), and unless something unexpected occurs during my tests next week, I wont hesitate to crown MobiStealth the #1 Android spy app money can buy.
Remember, I have NOT tested this product out. I plan to do so either this week, or early next week. Once I do, I’ll write a follow up to this post and give you all the good and bad (nothing is perfect…..right?) I uncover from my tests. Not sure which Android phone I’ll use. Most likely it will be a Motorola Droid or an HTC Dream. Would love to test it on a Nexus One. 
MOBISTEALTH OVERVIEW
MobiStealth’s Android spy software is available in three versions. Light, PRO, & PRO-X (their top of the line and most featured rich of the three).
At the moment, they only support Android devices. This means you are out of luck if you want to spy on a BlackBerry or iPhone. However, if you are looking for a way to spy on any of the hot new cell phones such as the Motorola Droid, Google’s Nexus One, HTC Dream/Hero/Magic, G1, MyTouch 3g, and all the other Android based cell phones, then MobiStealth may be the exactly what you need.
What impresses me most about MobiStealth, are two things.
1) Exclusive Features: MobiStealth has created an Android spy app which has spy phone features not found anywhere else. Recording of calls, picture & video retrieval, are just a few of the exciting new spy phone features MobiStealth has brought to the market.
2) Test. Test. Test. Test: I first noticed MobiStealth about 5 months ago, when I saw various ads around the net looking for beta testers. To be honest, I sort of wrote them off because I knew develping commercial grade spy phone software is not an easy task. However, MobiStealth perservered and was able to sign up a plethora of beta testers over a four month period. The end result is most likely one of the most tested spy phone apps on the market. Rather than keep the testing in-house, MobiStealth decided to let their app roam in the wild and get as many actual users to test it and provide feedback. This in itself is very impressive.
–> MOBISTEALTH DASHBOARD / ONLINE CUSTOMER ACCOUNT PORTAL
One of the first things you’ll notice with MobiStealth, is that they’ve taken time to create a nice dashboard where you manage your entire account & view all the recorded data collected from your target phone. Everything is easily accessible, with easy to understand links so you can quickly access the information you need. Check out this screen shot above. I’ve added numbers to each main section with a brief description below to give you visibility into each area of your dashboard.
1. My Dashboard - This is where you view your invoices, update your profile, change your password, add new cell phones, and view existing phones attached to your account.
2. Phones Data History – This is where all the action happens. You’ll most likely spend all your time clicking on these links. In this area of your account, you’ll have access to Recorded Calls, Browsing History, Call History, SMS History, View Current Location, Picture & Video History, and more.
3. My Phones – This is where all the Android cell phones that you are monitoring are displayed. There is also a quick ‘Track Location’ link here so you can quickly view the location of your target.
4. Recent Invoices – View your recent invoices here.
(See below for more screen shots.)
MOBISTEALTH ANDROID SPY SOFTWARE (PRO-X, PRO, LIGHT) FEATURES:
–> SECRETLY RECORD CALLS
This MobiStealth Android spy feature (available only on MobiStealth PRO-X) enables you to record calls made from/to specific numbers on your target’s phone. The recorded calls are then uploaded to your online MobiStealth account. Although other spy phone companies such as Flexispy offer live call monitoring, MobiStealth has added a slight twist by recording the calls for you. This means you dont have to worry about missing any calls that you wanted to listen in on. In addition, by having a recording of the call, you can use it for evidence if your particular situation required it. This is probably one of the most impressive features of MobiStealth. No other spy phone vendor offers this. Please Note: This feature is not compatible with CDMA networks. Your target cell must be on a GSM network for this to work.
–> REMOTELY RETRIEVE PICTURES & RECORDED VIDEOS
This is another feature only found on MobiStealth, and one that I’m sure will become quite popular. Using this MobiStealth feature will enable you to remotely retrieve photos and videos from your target’s Android phone. Ever wondered what pictures are stored on your target’s cell phone? Using this feature you’ll always know what pics and videos they have secretly saved on their cell phone. (Picture retrieval is available on both PRO & PRO-X, and video retrieval is a PRO-X only feature.)
–> ON DEMAND ROOM MONITORING
This MobiStealth Android spy feature will enable you to remotely record all conversations and sounds within a certain proximity of your target’s Android cell phone. On demand room monitoring is sometimes referred to as remote monitoring, and although this spy feature is not new, MobiStealth is the first to record what is monitored, and then upload the recording to your online account. (Available on both PRO & PRO-X versions.)
–> GPS TRACKING & ‘ON DEMAND’ LOCATION INFORMATION
This spy feature will record GPS coordinates of your target’s cell, and upload the data to your online account. (Available on all versions.) There is also an ‘On Demand‘ feature only available on the PRO & PRO-X version that will obtain the current location of your target’s cell phone. To use this, just send a secretly text message to the target’s phone. The current location will be reported immediately through an SMS reply.
–> SECRETLY READ TEXT MESSAGES
Secretly read all text messages that are sent & received from the Android device you are spying on. You’ll be able to read the entire message, view the date/time, and direction of the message (incoming/outgoing), regardless if the message is immediately deleted after your target has read them. In addition, MobiStealth will identify who the cell phone number the text message is linked to based on what number is stored in the phone’s address book. (Available on all versions.)
–> VIEW CALL HISTORY DETAILS
With this Android spy software feature, all incoming & outgoing call data will be recorded and uploaded to your online account. You will find out when the call was placed (or received) and who the your target called based on the name stored in the phone’s address book. Armed with this info, you can then use any of the popular reverse cell phone look up services, to find out the full name and address of the person who owns the number. (Available on all versions.)
–> VIEW WEB BROWSER (URLS) VISITED
With this spy feature, MobiStealth Android enables you to view the history of your target’s web browser. This could give you insight into plans or trips your target is planning if all of the sudden you see a large amount of travel websites visited. Could also give parents visiblity into their children’s browsing habits to ensure they are not visiting any prohibited websites.
–> ADDITIONAL FEATURES:
SIM Change Notification – Get notified of your target’s new number if they change their SIM card.
Bookmarks – View all the web bookmarks stored.
Contact Details – View contact details that are stored on the phone.
Guarantee – 3 Day Money Back Guarantee with every purchase.
HOW MUCH?
If you compare MobiStealth to the competition, they priced the software at a price point that keeps it within reach for most people. Although Flexispy does not currently support Android cell phones, their top of the line PRO-X (yes, they both use the same version names. Strange huh?) retails for $349, whereas MobiStealth retails for $199.99 USD.
MobiStealth Light - GPS tracking, secretly read text messages, call logs, web browser history, web browser book marks, appointment/calendar details, & contact details.
- 3 months @ $49.99 USD

HAPPY NEW YEAR! It’s time again for my predictions of what spy phone products we could see in 2010. Some of the products and spy phone features are definitely on the way, and others I’ve only heard “whispers” about from various sources, while some are just wild guesses on my part.
TOP 5 THINGS TO LOOK FOR IN 2010
1) MORE ANDROID SPY APPS
More Android spy software will hit the market in 2010. By the middle of this year, we’ll have at least 3-4 different spy phone vendors selling Android spy software. As the popularity of Android devices continue to increase, more spy phone vendors will rush out to create Android spy apps. I’ve already come across one new Android spy phone product that I’m currently reviewing, and more are on the way. Another thing causing a lot of buzz is the recent release of Google’s Nexus One phone. If Google puts some of their billions into a massive online marketing campaign, we could see an insane number of people using the Nexus One phone,which means a lot of people will be looking for Nexus One spy apps. This will be yet another incentive for more companies to create Android spy apps.
2) BLACKBERRY MESSENGER SPY SOFTWARE
A release date on this has not been confirmed by anyone yet, but I know several companies are looking into a way to spy on BlackBerry messenger conversations. As any BlackBerry addict knows, using BlackBerry messenger to chat with people is one of the most addicting features of a BlackBerry. Current BlackBerry spy phone software enables you to do just about anything, EXCEPT spy on BlackBerry messenger conversations. If spying on BlackBerry messenger conversations is found out to be technically possible, I’m predicting we’ll see this spy feature released this year.
3) PALM SPY APPS
Although I personally don’t think we’ll see any spy apps for Palm devices, the Palm Pre and other phones Palm is planning to release in 2010 could create enough users that might motivate a spy phone developer to create Palm spy phone software. A few people in the industry have mentioned it, but nothing has been confirmed. When I look at my web stats on how people find my blog, I do see a lot of ‘Palm Pre spy apps’ searches, which means people are definitely interested in spy software for Palm cell phones. However, I don’t think the market is big enough yet for the investment required to develop spy phone software for Palm devices.
4) PARENTS TRACKING THEIR CHILDREN.
As spy phone software becomes more mainstream, I feel this year we will start to see a lot more spy phone apps built exclusively for parents who want to monitor their kids cell phone use. Although existing spy phone apps do target concerned parents, the software is not really built exclusively for parents. The software is still hidden and there are not any features that are built for parents who want to protect their kids. Being alerted when your children go out of a “safe zone” (that you created via an online map) or possibly a feature where kids can silently trigger an alarm that secretly notifies their parents and police, are just a few of the features I feel parents would want. I understand that there are companies out there that target software to protect kids, but they don’t do a good enough job. Their pricing structure (most charge a monthly fee, which is a rip off), the way you sign up for their services, cell phones supported, features, etc. are just some of the problems with the existing companies. In 2010, things will change, and we should start to see a lot more companies enter this space.
5) BLUETOOTH SPY SOFTWARE & OTHER SPY PHONE SCAMS
It’s no secret. I’m not a fan of bluetooth spy software. If the it worked as advertised, then I think it would be a fantastic product. Who wouldn’t want a bluetooth spy phone product that had no range limitation, didn’t require that you “pair” the devices, and is used by the CIA and FBI. Unfortunately, the software doesn’t work, but one thing it does do well is piss off a lot of people who purchase it and find out that not only does it not work as advertised, but they can’t get their money back. I know that this year we’ll continue to see people purchase this type of software, and that means we’ll continue to see even more people who start to believe the entire spy phone industry is a scam, and that none of the products work. Every software will have problems, but in more than 90% of the cases, spy phone software sold by the industry leaders work as advertised, unlike the bluetooth spy software that simply does not work ad advertised on their websites. Another problem we’ll see in 2010, is the increased amount of spy phone scams. Last year we saw the MMS Phone Interceptor, and this year I’m sure we’ll see a few more.
That’s about it for now. Once I get more information on any of the above new spy phone software products, I’ll write more detailed reviews.
Once again, Happy New Year!

Dell Spy Phone? | Dell To Use Android For Their Cell Phones
Posted by: | Comments
Today Dell announced their plans to enter the smartphone market. It seems they are going to start in China, then later into Brazil and other parts of the world. No word yet on US launch dates.
Their initial cell phone will be the Dell Mini 3, which will run on the Android OS. As you probably are aware, Mobile Spy recently announced that their popular spy phone software will now support Android cell phones. This means when Dell does finally decide to release their cell phones stateside, you’ll easily be able to turn a Dell smartphone, into a Dell spy phone.
I can envision a day when employees who would currently receive a standard Dell laptop, will now get a Dell laptop AND Dell cell phone. This can open up a lot of opportunities for employers to easily monitor all employee communication on company provided devices. I fervently believe that it’s only a matter of time before all company provided cell phones are monitored, much the same way as most company provided PCs and laptops.
Justification for spying on employee cell phone use will most likely be to ensure that employees are using their company provided cell phones for work related activities versus personal activities. Other reasons could be to enforce company compliance policies and to keep logs of employee interactions with customers (text message communication or email) in case of a dispute or company lawsuit.
We are entering interesting times indeed.

ANDROID Spy Software Released | Android Mobile Spy Now Available
Posted by: | Comments
Wow, the guys over at Mobile Spy have been really busy. Less than two weeks ago Mobile Spy for BlackBerry was released, and today they announced that their Android spy phone software is available for immediate purchase. With this release, Mobile Spy becomes the first spy phone vendor to support the fast growing Android OS.
How Does It Work?
As with most spy phone software, Mobile Spy’s Android spy software works by secretly recording activity that occurs on the Android device, and then secretly uploads the recorded events to your secure online account that can be accessed via any internet connected device that has a web browser. (See the diagram below for details.)
ANDROID Spy Phone Features?
Mobile Spy for Android has the following spy phone features:
- Runs In Total Stealth – No mentions of the Android spy software are shown inside the Android device.
- GPS Tracking – Mobile Spy secretly records GPS locations, so you can track the Android user.
- Secretly Read Text Messages – Mobile Spy’s Android spy secretly records the entire contents of all SMS text messages (both incoming & outgoing), along with the number that is associated with the message stored in the Android’s address book. This Android spy feature enables you to read all text messages even if they are deleted immediately after being read.
- Call Records – With this Android spy phone feature, all inbound and outbound call information is recorded. Additional details include call duration and the name of the number that is associated in the Android’s address book.
Compatible Android Devices?
According to Mobile Spy’s Android press release, Mobile Spy is compatible on all Android devices, including the new My Touch 3G by T-Mobile and the hot new Motorola Droid.
How Much & Where To Buy?
Mobile Spy’s Android spy software is priced at $99.97 for an annual license. (Includes a FREE copy of Mobile Spy’s award winning PC spy software, Sniper Spy). You can also purchase a license for three months at $49.97 USD or six months at $69.97 USD.

Droid Does Spying | Motorola Droid Spy Phone Software Coming Soon
Posted by: | Comments<UPDATE -> November 6, 2009: Mobile Spy has released the world’s first Android spy software, and Motorola DROID is listed as one of the compatible Android devices. For more information, click HERE. So much for my guess of being one or two months away. )
Not sure how many of you have seen those Motorola Droid ads, but I thought it would be fun to create a parody of their Droid ad by giving it a “spy phone” theme. What do you think?
As you probably have seen, Motorola’s new Droid cell phone is getting a considerable amount of buzz, and it seems that the actual product may live up to all the hype. If you haven’t seen any details on the Droid phone, you should check out this great Droid review.
With the holiday season fast approaching, I think a lot of people have the Motorola Droid on their Christmas wish list because I’m starting to get emails from people asking me if there is, or if there will be, spy software available for the Droid.
The short answer is yes.
The Droid cell phone uses Android as the OS, and I know for a fact that there are at least three different spy phone vendors currently developing spy phone software for the Android OS. If you want to be the first who gets notified when Android spy software is released, you can sign up for the Android Spy Phone notification list. My guess is that we are only a month or two away from the first Android spy software, but it’s tough to say because all the spy phone vendors are keeping their own actual release date under wraps so their competitors won’t know what they are up to.
So what will Droid spy phone software feature? Based on the spy phone features planned for Android, a Droid spy phone will have the following:
- Text Message Interception – Ability to secretly read text messages that are sent or received from the target’s Droid phone.
- View Call Logs – This will enable someone to secretly view the Droid’s call logs, such as incoming and outgoing calls with the contact name that is associated to the phone number.
- GPS Tracking - This is a given as well. Stealth GPS tracking will be a primary feature of Droid spy phone software.
Here are a few possible Droid spy phone features based on a few rumors I’ve heard. Don’t forget that these are only guesses based on rumors I’ve heard, so if you don’t see some or all of these spy phone features available when Android spy software is released, please don’t send me any hate email.
- Remote Monitoring – Turn a Droid phone into a room bug. This Droid spy phone feature will enable someone to secretly listen in on the surroundings of the Droid phone.
- Picture Uploads - This new spy phone feature will enable a person to remotely access the pictures in the Droid phone.
- Remote Camera Activation – This Droid spy phone feature will activate the Droid’s camera and then secretly upload the picture to a secure online account so the person who is spying on the Droid phone can see where their target is.
- Call Interception – iPhone, BlackBerry, Windows Mobile, & Nokia (Symbian) phones all have spy phone software that offers live call interception, so why would Android be safe? You can almost be sure that this feature will be offered.
In summary, Droid spy phone software, which is based on Google’s Android OS, is definitely coming soon. Most likely it will be available before Christmas. Keep in mind that one of the best ways to get spy phone software installed on a cell phone and be 100% sure that it works, is to buy a compatible cell phone, install spy phone software, and then give to your target as a gift.
Based on the emails I’m getting about Droid spy software, it seems more than a few people out there have this approach in mind, so if your spouse surprises you with a brand new Droid phone, be careful because as the ad says, “Droid Does Spying.”

Spy Phone Forum Launched – The #1 resource (soon to be!) for spy phone discussions, tips, news and spy phone reviews is now live!
Just want to share some good news with everyone. Although it’s been a bit quiet lately in the spy phone world, there is a bit of good news.
Today I launched a spy phone forum (www.spyphoneforums.com) dedicated to the spy phone industry. My vision for this spy phone forum is a place where everyone can ask questions, share their spy phone experiences, read about the latest spy phone news and reviews (from not only me, but other customers as well), and just talk about anything spy related.
Another reason for launching this spy phone forum is due to the large number of emails I receive on a daily basis. On average, I get about 75 emails a day from people around the world with various spy phone questions. I’d estimate that more than 75% of the questions are similar to what is being asked every day by others, so by having a forum where people can post their questions and read the replies from myself and other people, will benefit everyone who is looking for spy phone software.
Keep in mind, the forum is a bit empty at the moment, but I’m hoping activity will pick up and will start to become a “go to” resource for everyone in the market for spy phone software.
Check it out here —->> Spy Phone Forums
Enjoy!
