Do I actually need her phone to install ephone? Are there any good spy software out there for phones where I don't need to physically have her phone to use?

I am looking into one of the following 4. I just want call logs, text logs and gps. I have all email passwords that I can monitor live on my phone. I would also like the one with the least battery drain.

Mobile-Spy
mobistealth
eblaster
flexispy

Any suggestions on battery drain and accuracy of data they obtain. And would prefer not to have to root the phone. Android.

rrr, eblaster is pretty accurate and I have never been aware of a battery drain issue. It has a GPS, records texts and sends call logs. It is $65. I don't know what it means to root a phone, though.

Rooting means to gain "root" or "SuperUser" or "Administrator" access. In some cases it might be difficult or impossible, and in some cases it might void the phone warranty.

If I have an android phone and root it, I can typically treat it like a regular computer and install anything I want on it, including things the manufacturer would prefer I not do (because they don't want to pay for the support phone calls from me when I screw things up!) So it makes sense for them to lock it down and make this difficult, and also to refuse to support my phone any more if I do it. On the other hand, it might make sense for me to do it if I don't mind being "on my own" with the phone with no help from the manufacturer any more.

I do not think that rooting is involved for installation of most phone spyware, but I don't have enough experience to know.

I did consider rooting Prisca's Kindle to install the Marriage Builders app last year, before there was a Marriage Builders app for Kindle! smile


If you are serious about saving your marriage, you can't get it all on this forum. You've got to listen to the Marriage Builders Radio show, every day. Install the app!

Has anyone worried about getting caught? Obviously you are not telling your spouse, my wh uses work issued cell phone for his communications. He also has a personal phone, it is in his name. From what I am reading it is illegal for me to track the work phone...is there any way they would know?

They might well know, depending on what you are planning to do to "track" it.

But first things first. I can see some of your story from your signature, but I think you need to tell us the whole thing. Your H has left, so how would you get hold of his work phone to track it anyway? And if he has left, then you can assume he is still in his affair and you do not need to monitor his work phone. You would not accept him back into your home until he made his work phone transparent to you, and if this is a workplace affair, he needs to leave that job anyway before you let him back. It sounds to me as if you should be in Plan B and doing nothing more for or with your H until he ends his affair and commits to recovery with full transparency.

Please start a thread in Surviving an Affair. You will get a lot of help there. Welcome to MB, and I'm sorry that you had to find us!

Has anybody here used the ez-csi phone tracking software which does not need access to the phone being tracked ? I am interested if anyone has tried it?

Maybe it is not legal to use as I see it is only to be used for tracking minors and employees ?

Lots of bad reviews. Steet clear. And someone wrote that the website expires 3/2013 so sounds like a bust.

Is anyone familiar with spy software to put on a HP computer? The problem I deal with is that H is a program specialist....he knows the programs that are on his computer. I'm worried about getting caught.

Hi realitymom- this is an old thread but could you please tell me how easy it was to jailbreak and how long it took? (how many minutes)

And then same for installing the software?

Thank you!
