At FlexiSPY, we know a thing or two about how to make reliable mobile monitoring software — because we created the spyphone industry in 2006 — and have led the pack ever since.
Think of FlexiSPY as the master craftsman against the low cost counterfeit sweatshop.
Since 2006, when we created the world's first spyphone — we continue to design, develop, test, market and support all our own products — nothing is outsourced and everything is done under one roof.
All this adds up to a better product and strong customer satisfaction — unlike most others, who are just marketers reselling inferior technology sourced from the lowest bidder.
Choose FlexiSPY, and you get the innovation, reliability and quality that comes with fourteen years of experience developing a technology that has been used by millions the world over.
For the younger generation, SMS and Phone calls are dead — it's all about social media and instant messengers. FlexiSPY is designed to be the premier instant messaging monitoring application with features such as capturing both sides of the conversation, and the ability to view stickers.
Unlike XNSPY, FlexiSPY allows you to listen to and record audio from sources like IM calls made over Facebook Messenger.
Turn your phone into a remotely controlled camera and video recorder — open the phones microphone to listen to surroundings.
Access recent and critical data on-the-move with our intuitive mobile viewer app for Android and iPhone — free with every purchase.
IM’s update all the time. When this happens competitors rush to play catch-up to update their software, and you lose out on valuable chats.
Our unique app screenshot feature means when an app like WhatsApp is updated, you won’t notice because you’ll still be able to see screenshots of the chats.
Customers rarely think about data security until hacks happen.
Skipping security makes the price of monitoring apps lower, but there are real consequences to ignoring security.
We are proud to say that FlexiSPY has a 100% perfect track record when it comes to its customer's data being compromised.
Unfortunately, our competitors can not say the same.

Value means different things to different people.
Whether you're a budget conscious buyer, or a professional who cannot compromise on being able to get every piece of information available, FlexiSPY's product range has you covered.
From our FlexiSPY LITE product — which is the most affordable in the industry — to FlexiSPY EXTREME, which is unique in the industry, we have something that's perfect for everyone.

XNSPY is a parental control and employee surveillance app that is compatible with Android and to an extent, IOS devices.
To start, you’ll have to verify compatibility then get access to the target smartphone or tablet and install XNSPY. The software will start pulling data such as historical GPS location, internet history, text messages, key logs, and depending on the target device model – even allow you to record calls and surroundings. You can then view this data on your own computer or phone via a web portal.
Like other advanced monitoring apps, XNSPY lets users send Remote Control commands to wipe the phone, lock the phone, take a screen shot and record surroundings (features unavailable on IOS). Usefully, the app also allows you to set up keyword and location alerts.
Let’s begin by looking at what devices XNSPY is compatible with.
Most of XNSPY’s features for Android and IOS will REQUIRE you to root or jailbreak the device.
*Please note that most features are unavailable on Android 10 devices. These include Call Recording, Surround recording, and all Rooted Features.
Furthermore, the XNSPY icon will be visible on the home screen after installation for all devices operating on Android 10.
*XNSPY for Jailbroken IOS will work up to IOS 9.02 only. It will not be compatible with any recent models of iPhone or iPads.
*To use XNSPY’s iCloud solution, you’ll need authority over the device owner’s Apple account and iCloud credentials. However, please note that Apple no longer allows you to deactivate 2FA, meaning you will require physical access every time XNSPY is detected.
Also, you won’t be able to download XNSPY from Google Play of the App store. The only way is to get the app is on the XNSPY website.
XNSPY offers two packages, Basic and Premium with varying prices based on duration of your subscription.
Important Note:
XNSPY for iPhone Jailbroken is limited to 6 features and will only work on outmoded devices such as iPhone 4 and iPhone 4s due to version compatibility issues. While XNSPY for iPhone Non-Jailbroken (iCloud) is not a monitoring software, but simply a cloud data back-up.
What stands out is that both iPhone solutions follow the same pricing structure as their Android product – which has over 30+ features - despite offering far less functionality and value for money.
If you’re looking for a reliable software with flexible packages that are upfront about what will and won’t work on your target device, check out the Original Spy App.
XNSPY’s Standout Features for Parental Control and Employee Monitoring:
Capturing keystrokes are one of XNSPY’s most reliable features and give users access to everything that is typed on the device. Monitor texts, instant messengers, emails, and more.
With XNSPY, customers can view location history with date and time stamps. One drawback is that the location data won’t be logged in real-time. XNSPY’s tech team are currently working on Live Location monitoring in order to offer a more complete feature.
If you are looking to monitor an Android or iPhone device in real-time without significant time gaps, consider FlexiSPY for Android & IOS.
XNSPY let’s you set up keyword alerts to send notifications when specified words or phrases appear in emails, SMS, browser activity, and more. Use it to protect your company’s sensitive info or be warned when your child is talking to a stranger.
If you’re using an Android device that does not run on OS 10, then XNSPY can record calls and surroundings.
However, more advanced monitoring software will offer reliable Call Recording and Ambient Recording up to Android 10 without rooting the target device.
XNSPY offers IM tracking for Rooted Androids up to OS 9 while iMessage monitoring is available on its iCloud back-up solution.
Instant messengers are one of the most important features you should be looking for in a spy app. The best IM tracking software on the market will offer cross-platform compatibility and work on the latest operating systems.
Impressively, XNSPY’s Remote Control features will work up to Android 10. With XNSPY you’ll be able to record Surroundings, take a screenshot, wipe, and lock the device.
Again, Remote Control features are not available on IOS.
Notable Drawbacks:
In our opinion, XNSPY does not offer a viable iPhone jailbreak product, especially when compared to alternatives in the spy app market. While the No-Jailbreak iCloud solution is only worth checking out if you’re looking to monitor a compliant tween or pre-schooler.
After extensive testing and an in-depth comparison to similar monitoring software, the only viable package is XNSPY PREMIUM for rooted Android Devices.
XNSPY is hidden on all devices operating on Android 9 OS and below.
Like most spy software, XNSPY is not hidden on android 10. In fact, few apps are truly hidden on Android 10. So do your research to find out which software really delivers on its promise.
As XNSPY does not offer a viable iPhone Jailbreak and its No-Jailbreak iCloud is simply a cloud data back-up, neither solution’s visibility will be discussed.
Parents
On rooted Android devices, XNSPY can a useful tool for parental control, providing guardians with useful information to track their child including historical location, text messages, photos, and videos.
Employers
XNSPY is a decent solution to keep an eye on your employees. Track emails, web browsing history, appointments, calendar entries, and define keyword alerts for suspicious activity.
Personal
XNSPY can also be useful if your someone who often loses or misplaces your mobile device.
Install XNSPY on your personal device and use the historical location feature to track where the device has been. You can also use the Remote-Control feature (available for rooted Androids only) to wipe data and lock the device’s screen to protect your sensitive information.
Up until recently XNSPY did not have a solution compatible with Android 10. Today, they offer a product with Basic and Remote-Control features for rooted Android 10 devices.
Unfortunately, you’ll be missing out important functions such as call recording, surround recording feature, and all rooted features.
XNSPY is on Android 10 is not hidden.
The icon will be visible on the home screen after installation of our app for all android OS version 10 target devices.
For a monitoring software with full Android 10 support see here.
XNSPY for Android up to OS 9 (rooted) has enough features to be a useful parental control tool.
XNSPY has an intuitive Dashboard with several useful features for parental control – all be it with limited compatibility.
These include:
However, there are some disadvantages to XNSPY for Parental Control,

When it comes to gauging the reliability monitoring software, some of the biggest things to look out for include over-advertising on features and compatibility, biased refund policies, and misleading fine print.
Of the apps we’ve tested, XNSPY has been one of the more dubious – here’s 5 reasons why.
1. Poor Value for Money
XNSPY’s offers two packages BASIC $29.99/mo and PREMIUM $35.99/mo.
The amount of features you get depends on what device model you’re looking to monitor. Understandably, not all features will work on all devices, but in XNSPY’s case there is a massive disparity in the features you’ll get with each type of device.
Believe it or not, XNSPY’s IOS Jailbreak (6 features/compatible up to only iOS 9.03) and IOS No-Jailbreak (data back-up only) costs the same as Android (30+ features), at $35.99 a month.
2. Misleading Demo
We highly recommend doing your homework before buying anything.
A quick look through XNSPY’s Demo and you’ll find that many features advertised are not compatible with devices as claimed. For example, Record Surroundings and Remote Control (Wipe, Lock, and Record Surroundings) are features displayed in XNSPY’s iPhone demo, but do not work at all on IOS devices.
It’s always important to confirm that features will work on your preferred device.
The best way to find out is to ask XNSPY’s Live Chat directly, they will often provide you with accurate feature and compatibility info, regardless of whether it conflicts with the company’s promotional material.
3. Pay Attention to Asterisks
Throughout XNSPY’s website and promotional material you’ll find asterisks and disclaimers. Pay careful attention to these, especially those that apply to the type of device you’re looking to monitor.
For example.
“+mark indicates that these features will work only on non-2FA based iCloud accounts.”
Asterisks such as the one above from XNSPY’s Buy Now page indicate to customers that marked features will work with non-2 FA based iCloud accounts. The only problem is that because of Apple’s security policies, deactivating 2FA on iCloud is no longer allowed.
4. Customer Support
XNSPY offers 2 types of Customer Support. The first is a Live Chat service which they claim is 24/7, the second are support tickets or emails.
Limited Response Channels
XNSPY’s Live Chat handles pre-sale inquiries quite well and they also do a good job of funneling any potential customers looking to monitor iPhones towards their iCloud back-up solution.
However, they are unable to take any technical questions and will often give you the run around to avoid admitting something is incompatible or doesn’t work.
The company also has no phone number anywhere on their site, the only way to communicate with them is through support tickets.
Do they really have a 10-day Refund Policy?
There have been reports of poor refund practices by delaying ticket responses past refund expiry dates. This is especially the case if your claim is with regards to having spent money on XNSPY for iPhone.
In our experience, whatever your claim might be it is highly unlikely you will receive a full refund from XNSPY.
Learn more about how XNSPY’s support handle refunds here.
Complaints about No-Jailbreak iCloud Solution
A common complaint of XNSPY is that customer service responses to issues related to their iCloud solution are apathetic and unaccommodating.
Listen to this customer describes their experience with XNSPY:
“their common line of defense is that they have already stated how unreasonable they are going to be, on their terms and conditions and if you still agree to purchase then you are agreeing to be screwed. As such you get no refund even if they fail to give you what they purport to sell or provide. They are covered by their terms and conditions which states they can be like this. Be warned. Lots of better more reliable companies around who really want to help. Perhaps they are spending more time writing up fake reviews than really working on their software.”
5. Limited & Unreliable features
From our tests and customer reviews, it seems XNSPY’s features that are available don’t really work all that well. They are not only limited, but also unreliable – especially when compared to the functionality offered by competitors in a similar price range.
From reviews claiming that the app only works well for the duration of the 10-day refund policy to unacceptable delays in data uploads - XNSPY is far from reliable.
Here are some of the most encountered issues:
Learn more from trusted reviews here.
When looking at monitoring software, it’s important you verify the features you want will work on the target device before buying anything.
The truth is that many products will not live up to their marketing hype. Some companies lack the expertise to stay up to date with the latest operating systems, while others hit a wall trying to bypass a manufacturer’s stringent protection measures. The latter is especially true when it comes to the ongoing conflict of XNSPY vs. Apple’s security policies.
Most iPhones are regularly updated and operate on the latest OS versions, with the most recent being IOS 13.4. [LINK to FlexiSPY 13.4 announcement blog] Unfortunately, XNSPY is not a viable solution for most people looking to monitor iPhones as the app only supports jailbreak versions up to IOS 9.0.3.
If your target device operates on a higher IOS, then the only option you’ll have is the Non-jailbreak (iCloud) product, the merits of which can be explored below.
But first, is XNSPY’s iOS jailbreak product worth your consideration?
Jailbreak
For the unfamiliar, jailbreaking an iPhone will allow you to install unofficial apps and modify settings and areas of the phone that are restricted by the manufacturer. Depending on how tech-savvy you are, this can be a relatively simple process.
However, jailbreaking an iOS device can void its warranty, prevent installation of latest updates, and in a worst-case scenario - brick your iPhone or iPad. This is why the best monitoring software offer a Worry-Free Installation Service to ensure everything goes smoothly.
Unfortunately, XNSPY does not offer an installation or jailbreaking service, meaning customers will have to perform this technical process themselves.
XNSPY’s Jailbreak does not offer a viable IOS monitoring solution.
Without exaggerating, the app’s monitoring capabilities for Apple devices stop with the iPhone 4 and iPhone 4s, two models which are well out-of-date.
This makes XNSPY either out of touch with what customers are looking to monitor, or negligently advertising a product they know will not work on most iPhones.
Due to the many limitations of the iPhone Jailbreak, XNSPY’s sales representatives will always guide you to the no-jailbreak solution. As seen below.
On the off-chance you might be looking to monitor an iPhone 4s, the 6 features available (Contacts, Photos, Historical Location, Calendar, and Browser History) on XNSPY for Jailbroken iPhones are only a fraction of what is available on their Android (rooted) product, while being priced the same at $35.99/month. When queried, the company’s Live Chat apologized and informed us that the sales department had not given a reasoning behind this pricing structure.
Considering blatant compatibility issues and the risks VS rewards of jailbreaking an iPhone to install XNSPY, you may better off looking at more advanced and reliable IOS Monitoring.
No-Jailbreak (iCloud)
The good news about XNSPY’s No-Jailbreak (iCloud) solution is that no installation is required, because as their Live Chat puts it, the product is simply an “iCloud back-up-based monitoring”.
The bad news is that it will constantly require physical access to the target device to bypass 2 FA. The very bad news is that it is not a viable product that offers any value for money, nor is it discreet – that is, unless you’re monitoring a compliant 5 to 8-year-old.
To use XNSPY for iCloud, you will need to have full control over the device owner’s log-in credentials and be able to manage their iCloud account regularly. In fact, you’ll be required to do this every single time you wish to access the portal.
Here’s what we discovered when we tested XNSPY’s No-Jailbreak solution.
The first time we accessed the iCloud account with XNSPY it worked, we were able to view data and things looked promising. However, as part of the company’s security policy, Apple then locked the iCloud account for suspicious activity that was caused by XNSPY installation. In order to unlock the account, we are prompted to update the password or verify 2FA.
“Apple then locked the iCloud account for suspicious activity that was caused by XNSPY installation”.
The problem arises when the device being monitored also requires that the iCloud password is updated. At this point, you will be required to have physical access to the device. Until which time the phone will be unable to use its iCloud account and cannot back up any data (main function of their XNSPY’s iCloud product) until the password is updated. This makes it impossible to monitor the target device stealthily.
This issue is acknowledged by XNSPY here.
If you read the above carefully, you’ll see that XNSPY is claiming that it is your responsibility to ensure the product works given these circumstances. And because the assumption is that you are legally monitoring a compliant person (child), you should be able to access the device any time you’d like to view data.
In our opinion, this defeats the purpose of having a monitoring app or parental control software.
With regards to stealth monitoring, if the target iPhone has 2 Factor Authentication enabled then this app is completely of no use. In their own words, the purpose of this iCloud product is only to serve as a data back-up tool. A back-up for a back-up, so to speak.
What’s more? Given XNSPY’s airtight refund policy, once a customer pays up for the No-Jailbreak solution, they can expect to receive a partial refund at best.
Any complaints about the XNSPY’s iCloud product or Refund Policy will be met with the following Disclaimers:
1. “Note that all the prerequisites of our Apple iCloud spy are mentioned explicitly on our website and even on our Buy Now page, so the potential users have a clear understanding of how the iCloud spying works.”
2. “Our iCloud spy product is not underdeveloped. It’s rather the restrictions set by Apple on iCloud services to avoid any anomalous activity. This is also something that’s clearly mentioned on our website.”
3. “Users who end up signing up for our iCloud version, they know what they are buying. We have tried our best to provide full transparency to our valued customers.”
READ THE FINE PRINT! Or save yourself the hassle by going with the industry-leading monitoring software that has real iPhone monitoring capabilities.
Bottom Line
After extensive testing and comparison to similarly priced products on the market, we can safely say that XNSPY’s Jailbroken product is not worth your money, while the iCloud solution is viable only in the rarest of circumstances and arrangements.
