I’ve used Viespy on my teen’s Android for about 6 months. Here’s the real deal:
Android: Works okay for calls/texts but the app monitoring is spotty. It’ll randomly stop tracking WhatsApp or Snapchat when Android updates. The stealth mode isn’t that stealthy - my kid found the app after 2 weeks because it showed up in battery usage stats.
iOS: Honestly? Don’t bother. It only pulls from iCloud backups so you’re always behind by hours or even days. No real-time tracking at all.
For Android, make sure you:
- Turn off battery optimization for the app
- Disable Play Protect scanning
- Use an older Android (8 or 9) if possible
But tbh, I switched to something else after constant disconnections. The free Google Family Link actually worked better for basic stuff. If you need something more robust that actually stays hidden, there are better options out there that don’t have these reliability issues.
What Android version is your kid running? That makes a huge difference.
