These days it seems like everyone has a cell phone. Even our little cousins and nieces and nephews are getting them, at earlier and earlier ages. Parents give them to children, spouses use them, even employers issue them to company employees!

With all these people using cell phones, many of them advanced smartphones capable of sending emails, pictures, and browsing the internet, you might be wondering, how can I monitor a cell phone? 

You aren’t alone.  Who else is looking to monitor cell phones?

• PARENTS who want to monitor their child’s phone activity
• PARENTS who want to know where their child is at, using their phone’s GPS
• SPOUSES who want to find out if their significant other might be cheating
• EMPLOYERS  who want to make sure their company-issued phones aren’t being used for personal use
• SALESPEOPLE who need a detailed record of their phone history
• and almost ANYONE who wants to wants to be able to locate their phone if it gets lost or stolen!

There are a few steps to determine which Cell Phone Monitoring product is best for you, but the first thing to figure out is…

What type of phone do you have?

This is the most important step, so you can determine which product is compatible with your phone.  Certain products are designed to work with certain phones, so read on.

First thing to do is to see if your phone has a removable SIM card, which looks like this:

 
If your phone has a removable SIM card, you can use the Cell Phone SIM Card Reader: 

With the Cell Phone SIM card reader, you will be able to view data from your phone’s SIM card, even recover and view deleted text messages!  You just plug the SIM card into the reader, insert into your USB port, and you can then view what's on the card!

This device will also allow you to save, edit, and delete contacts and text messages via your computer, so you can easily make a backup of your phone, edit it, and even transfer it to a new phone easily! You can also use this as a general backup device to make regular backups of your SIM card, in case your phone is ever lost, stolen, or damaged.

If you think the Cell Phone SIM Card Reader is for you, check out that page, or read on to learn about other Cell Phone monitoring products.

But what if your smartphone doesn’t have a removable SIM card?  Or you want/need more information, such as real-time monitoring and GPS location tracking? 

Introducing…the Cell Phone Recon:

The Cell Phone Recon is much more powerful than the SIM card reader, because it is software that you actually install ON YOUR PHONE, which gives you the ability to monitor text messages, emails, call logs, AND EVEN CURRENT GPS LOCATION!

How does the Cell Phone Recon work?

Cell Phone Recon works by installing a small, invisible tracking program on your smartphone.  It only takes a couple minutes to install, and you can do it directly from the mobile browser on your phone.  

LOG EVERY INCOMING AND OUTGOING:

• Phone call, duration, and time
• Text Message
• Email Message
• Even Current GPS location on a map!

All of this information is uploaded to a secure server where you can access the data with your username and password. View call logs, emails, text messages, and even see the phone’s location on a map when every single one of those activities took place!

 
So if your child told you when they called you at 9:30 that they were still at the library, you can check and find out if they were actually there!

You get a full 5 years of unlimited tracking data when you purchase the Cell Phone Recon, and there are never any additional monthly fees or charges for the tracking data!

So if you're looking to monitor your phone's location AND be able to monitor what's on it, the Cell Phone Recon is the product you're looking for!

There is one final smartphone that we haven’t addressed yet…but within the last few weeks, a revolutionary recovery device was finally just released for the most popular smartphone in the USA, the Apple iPhone!

If you are looking to monitor the Apple iPhone, check out the
iDataSPY Data Recovery Device for Apple iPhone:

What makes the iDataSPY unique, is that it allows you to recover data from the iPhone, including deleted text message and phone calls!  In addition, it allows you to view internet browser history, map history, photos, and even GPS location history from the iPhone!

No other program on the market can do all this, without first requiring you to “Jailbreak” your iPhone, which is a process that will void your iPhone warranty, and open up your phone to computer viruses.

In fact, with the iDataSPY, there is no software to install. The program runs completely on the USB device. To use it, simply connect the device to your PC, connect your iPhone to your computer, and then run the program from the USB drive.  It will scan your iPhone for information, and present all the data it finds in an easy-to-read format:
 

So if you are looking to monitor or recover data from the iPhone, the iDataSPY Data Recovery Device is the only way to go!
