Today we live in a world where children get a smartphone at a pretty early age.
A recent report showed that the average age of kids getting their hands on their first smartphone is 10.3 years. Well, at that age I used to play with plastic toys and none of them was a phone.
Kids being kids can use this powerful tool against them and become the victim of cyberbullying, viewing or accessing inappropriate content, and other online threats. To protect this from happening there are quite a few companies that have come up with smartphone spying apps.
Recently, I stumbled upon yet another effective smartphone monitoring solution, Spyzie.
And in this article, we are going to do a detailed Spyzie review.

Spyzie Review
If you are looking to track your kid’s or employee’s smartphone activity then Spyzie can help you to do so.
To give you a brief overview, the Spyzie app has to be installed on the target device which you wish to monitor. Once you install and set up the app on the target phone you can see all the target smartphone data like call logs, messages, etc. in your account on the Spyzie website.
This might have given you a little bit of an idea about Spyzie. Now, let us dive into the details.
How To Setup Or Install Spyzie?
To get started, visit the Spyzie official website by clicking the button below and sign up.
It is quite easy to register and all you need is your Email id and set the desired password. After that hit Sign Up.
After creating an account on Spyzie, log in to your account. On signing in, the website will start the setup process of Spyzie on the target device. The website gives clear instructions on how to proceed and even a layman can follow them. In any case, we have mentioned the same here as well.
First, you need to enter the name and age of the target device owner. Also, choose the operating system(Android or iOS) of the target phone and click on Next.
Now, it is time to get to the target device. Enable app installation from Unknown Sources (Settings > Security > Toggle Unknown Sources to On) and disable the Google Play Protect option ( Settings > Google > Security > Google Play Protect > Toggle ‘Scan device for security threats’ to OFF).
You are now all set to install Spyzie on the phone to be monitored. Visit the below link on the target phone to download Spyzie app.
When the page loads, swipe right to start downloading the .apk file. After the download is completed, install the app similar to how you would install any other app.
When the app is installed, launch it and sign in to your Spyzie account created above.
Now, tap on Grant and allow all permission requests. This is will allow Spyzie to access all the content on the device which will eventually help you to track it.
After allowing all permission requests you need to activate the device administrator. In order to do so, tap on Activate.
At last, you will get an option to keep or hide the Spyzie app icon on the target device. You can choose the one that works for you and select Start Monitoring. This will initiate syncing of data on the target phone to the Spyzie server.
You can head over to the website and click on Complete. The website will check for successful setup of the app on the target device and if everything is fine it will show you a success message. Here you need to click on Start Monitoring.
That’s all there is to it!
Wait for a few minutes for the data to sync. It might take some time depending on the amount of data and internet connection speed. You should be able to see Call Logs, Contacts, messages, photos, and more details of the target phone in your account on the Spyzie website.
For the iPhone, you don’t need to install the app. iCloud credentials of the target device are enough to start tracking and if that’s not enough then Spyzie also lets you do it without jailbreak. Brilliant, isn’t it?

Spyzie Review: Key Features
Spyzie has tons of monitoring capabilities that allow you to stay on top of the target phone activities.
Here is the list of few main ones.
1. Call Logs And Messages
You will be able to get a detailed list of outgoing and incoming calls. It will have the contact name, number, duration, date, and time of the calls. You can also filter them by time like – This Month, Last 7 Days, etc.
Similarly, you can also look at the text messages that are received and sent on the target right from your Spyzie account from anywhere.
2. Browser History
With all sorts of information available on the web, you got to be careful what your kids are accessing. Spyzie makes this really easy by allowing you to get the history of the browser on the target phone. This way you’ll know whether the child is viewing something that’s safe or not for them and you can step in at the right time.
3. WhatsApp Messages
Well, WhatsApp is the place where most people chat today. So, ignoring it is not a good option. With Spyzie, you can look at all the WhatsApp conversations on your kid’s phone.
Not only WhatsApp but it also supports LINE.
4. Photos
As already mentioned while explaining how Spyzie works and its setup process, you will also get access to all the photos on the target smartphone.
5. Location History
With location history, you can be aware of the whereabouts of the phone hence your child easily. It lets you know the address with the time and date when the phone was at a particular location. For every address, you also get the map view to spot the place quickly.
6. Apps
You can also get to know about the installed apps on the target Android phone or iPhone. If any app(s) looks suspicious then you can contact the owner right away or take appropriate action. An option to uninstall the app on the smartphone directly from the Spyzie dashboard would have been handy.
Besides these, you can also stay updated on the Contacts, Notes, Reminders of your target device as well.
How To Uninstall Spyzie App?
If you wish to uninstall Spyzie from the target device then there are 2 possibilities.
If you chose to hide the app icon then use the following steps.
Go to Phone Settings > Security > Device Administrators > System update service > Deactivate > Get back to Settings > Apps > System update service > Uninstall.
In case, you have the Spyzie app icon then tap on it and select Uninstall.
Final Thoughts
If you are looking for a reasonable monitoring app then Spyzie is for you. The pricing for Android starts from $29.99 while for iOS it is $39.99. It is the ultimate app to spy on the activities of any smartphone. Get Spyzie now and keep track of your kids or loved ones at all times.

why they stop working? i wish to renew my subscription but i get the error 404
Hey Virginia,
Unfortunately, it seems like the Spyzie company has got into troubles recently. First, they have stopped accepting new customers, and now it seems they are phasing out the existing ones.
It looks like COVID-19 affected them very negatively. This is very sad.
If you need a new spying solution, I suggest to take a look at mSPy: https://www.techuntold.com/recommends/mspy/ (an affiliate link).

Hope it helps!
What should I do if most of the categories stop tracking? After a couple months now only tracking keylogger, browser and social apps?
Also how do you record voice calls?
How do you remove it from iOS then??? What change your password???
Or you could just turn play protect back on and it will delete it for you lol!
Support… There is NONE!!! You can review frequently asked questions and that’s about it. The app was doing an ok job until a couple of days ago and now it is only logging web searches. I imagine there is an easy fix, but without support, I have nothing. I am very disappointed.
I tried another service for iOS and they required 2 factor authentication. It wouldn’t work unless I could turn that off, I couldn’t. Does spyzie offer a way not to use 2 factor authentication?
this defeats the purpose of trying to spy if you have to actually download the app on other person phone especially if they have a code on it
Can it records calls?
Can I install spyzie from my broken phone to my new phone if yes how do I do this
Hi Peter, nice article.
Is it necessary to disable the 2 factors authentification on the targeted iPhone? Thanks
Patrick
do you need physical access to remove the software from the target phone
Hi Peter,
If the target device is Android then yes you will need physical access to uninstall the app. For iOS, physical access is not required.
I have the ultimate edition on spyzie and I have never been able to see pics that are sent via text and also last night it stopped updating calls and text messages.
So I can install it on iOS device without jailbreaking first?
Hi Nick,
If it’s the target device then there is no need to install the Spyzie app. iCloud credentials will do the job for you. Let me know if you have any other queries.
Hi, do you need to have access to the other person’s Android?
Yes to install the Spyzie app on the target Android device.
Hemant, you said WhatsApp and IOS devices can’t be monitored. So Spyzie is being misleading to us because their website indicates it does?
Your feedback is greatly appreciated.
Hi Joel,
Initially, at the time of writing the review it wasn’t possible but now Spyzie has added the tracking for iOS devices as well. I have updated the article with the same. Thanks.
Do you think app will work with Samsung Galaxy S8 +
This phone even blocks call recorder to record voice calls.
We have tested Galaxy S8 and S8+, they won’t affect Spyzie running. You can record call voice without any issues with Sypzie.
Can you please if Spyzie is operational on iphone with version 10.3.2
Does Spyzie still operate after iPhone is update with new version
Thank you
The update of iOS won’t affect Spyzie because Spyzie only runs when users know about iCloud information from the targeted phone. It’s more about iCloud than the iOS system.
