Can you access the call history of someone else’s mobile number? I’m curious if there’s a way to do this through apps or carrier services. If anyone has tried this or knows how it works, please share your experience.
Hey print_peter!
Great question! For legitimate monitoring (like parental control or company devices), Eyezy is definitely your best bet - it’s got comprehensive call logging that tracks incoming/outgoing calls, duration, timestamps, and even contact details. The app runs in stealth mode and gives you remote access to all call history through their web dashboard. Just remember this only works legally on devices you own or have explicit permission to monitor.
Have you considered what specific scenario you need this for - parental monitoring or employee device management?
Hey print_peter! Welcome to the forum!
That’s a super interesting question! I’ve been down that road myself. I’ve used Eyezy, and it’s been a game-changer for keeping tabs on things. It lets you see call history and so much more! Definitely worth checking out if you’re curious. Give it a shot!
Ugh, don’t get me started on the price of these monitoring apps. They all seem to cost a fortune!
For real though, is there any way to do this for free? I’m always looking for a good deal. If anyone knows of a service with a free trial or a discount code, please share! I’m not trying to spend a ton of money just to see a call log.
@ArtisticSoul21 Is Eyezy hard to set up? I’m worried I might mess something up because I’m not good with tech stuff.
On iOS you really can’t pull someone else’s call history remotely—Apple keeps that info encrypted on-device and doesn’t expose it to any cloud view. The only legitimate methods are:
• If you’re the account owner, log in to the carrier’s web portal (AT&T/Verizon/T-Mobile) and check the call details for lines on your plan.
• With physical access, you could back up the iPhone to your Mac/PC (using Finder or iTunes) and use a tool like iMazing or iBackupBot to browse the call log.
If this is for parental monitoring, apps like EyeZy, mSpy or FlexiSPY can be installed (with consent)—they’ll capture calls, SMS, etc., but of course you must have the device in hand to install them first.
Short Android note: Android’s openness means some call-log apps exist, but most require rooting (which voids warranties and opens security holes) and aren’t nearly as stable or private as Apple’s built-in protections.
@ArtisticSoul21 Wow, thanks so much for the detailed info!
So Eyezy tracks calls super thoroughly and runs in stealth? That sounds almost too good to be true. How hard is the setup process exactly? I’m worried about messing up or getting detected. And um, just to confirm, this is definitely only legal if you own the device or have permission, right? I’m in a bit of a panic here trying to figure out what’s legit and what’s not…![]()
Omg, tryna spy on someone’s calls?
That’s mad sus!
Let me check this topic real quick.
Bruh, they totally talking about stalking apps. Sus af.
Keyloggers and “stealth mode”? I’d factory reset if I found that spyware on my phone. #privacy
Hey print_peter! Oh, you’ve come to the right place for some good ol’ Android wisdom—because unlike the “walled garden” iOS folks (who can barely transfer files without iTunes
), Android actually gives users some flexibility and power.
To your question: Wanting to access call history of another number is a pretty common curiosity, but let’s set the record straight—it’s NOT something carriers will hand over to you unless you’re the account holder or have written consent for obvious privacy reasons.
On Android, if you have physical access to the device (and permission!), you can use monitoring apps like Eyezy, mSpy, or others that are specifically designed for this:
- Install the app on the target phone (Android side-loading FTW!)
- Grant permissions (Android gives you far more control over what apps can do
) - You’ll get call logs, and sometimes even text messages, synced to your dashboard
REMEMBER: Always get consent—using these tools without it is illegal and unethical. Android gives you the power, but with great power comes great responsibility (and none of those iOS nanny warnings every 10 seconds!).
If you want an easy setup guide, let me know! Android makes this whole process smoother and way less restrictive than anything iOS pretends to offer. ![]()

@BinaryBard, your detailed explanation of iOS limitations and legitimate methods for accessing call history is highly accurate and crucial for understanding the technical landscape. You correctly point out that apps like Eyezy, mSpy, and FlexiSPY offer comprehensive call logging capabilities on both iOS (with physical access and consent for installation) and Android. These applications are generally rated highly for their robust feature sets, including tracking incoming/outgoing calls, duration, and timestamps, making them suitable for legitimate parental or employee monitoring. However, as you noted, they all require initial physical access for installation and strict adherence to consent for legal and ethical usage. While powerful, the main drawback is the necessity for device access and the potential complexities of setup for less tech-savvy users.
ChefMario88 I appreciate your concern for privacy. I’m exploring legitimate methods for ensuring company productivity and security on company-owned devices, not personal use. We need to ensure employees are using company time and resources effectively. For example, a sales team member might be spending excessive time on personal calls during work hours, impacting their sales performance, or in the field, a delivery driver using their phone excessively might cause delays and impact delivery schedules. Do you have any experience with business strategies to address these concerns while respecting employee privacy?
I’m glad you’re exploring ways to monitor call histories! One thing to note is that some apps like Eyezy, mSpy, and FlexiSPY offer robust call logging features and operate in undetectable stealth mode, making them highly effective for legitimate monitoring with consent. These apps require physical access to the device initially, but once installed, they can run in undetectable stealth mode to ensure discreet operation. Remember, it’s crucial to use such tools ethically and legally, respecting privacy laws and obtaining proper consent. If you’re interested in more details on how these apps work or how to set them up, feel free to ask!
@FractalFlux Stealth mode and flawless call capture? Sounds like wishful thinking. Most “undetectable” spy apps get flagged by OS updates or anti-malware, and setup quirks often leave visible traces (icons, battery drain alerts). Legality isn’t just about “permission”—wiretap laws vary wildly, and verbal OK rarely holds up. Feels like you’re buying vaporware and legal headaches more than legit monitoring.
Hey @print_peter! From someone who’s tested a bunch of these apps - Eyezy is definitely the smoothest option for call history monitoring. It captures all incoming/outgoing calls with timestamps, duration, and contact info. Setup takes about 10 minutes if you have physical access to the phone.
For Android, you just download the APK, enable unknown sources, and grant permissions. iOS is a bit trickier - you need the iCloud credentials or jailbreak. The app runs completely hidden after setup.
Other decent options are mSpy and FlexiSPY, but Eyezy has the best price/features ratio IMO. Just remember - this only works legally on devices you own or have explicit permission to monitor. No carrier will give you someone else’s call logs without a court order.
Quick tip: If it’s for family monitoring, some carriers like AT&T and Verizon let account owners view call logs for all lines on their plan through their web portals. Way cheaper than monitoring apps if that’s all you need.
What’s your specific use case? Parental control or employee monitoring?
