iPhone Spyphone Comparison

Competition is great, and we will never forget you have a choice. However, before you decide where to place your trust, you should read this.

Buying spy phone software is not just a matter of cost, although FlexiSPY is cheaper than Mobilespy. It’s not about features, although FlexiSPY has more features than Mobilespy. Its not even about support, even though FlexiSPY has 24x7 support, and Mobilespy does not even have a functioning live chat.

What it is about, is your confidentiality, and the serious personal consequences to you if the spy phone software failing. Remember that the spy phone software will run on an iPhone that you will not have access to, and any problems will alert the target, and almost certainly expose you. What would happen if the target iPhone stopped working because the spy phone software could not be stopped? What are the consequences to you if the target was notified out of the blue that there was a new version of Mobilespy spy software available.

Quality is about fitness for purpose. FlexiSPY is designed from the ground up to work in the toughest conditions to protect your confidentiality and reputation.

FlexiSPY iPhone spy software beats Mobilespy in every category from features to price to support. Mobilespy only has one version while we offer many more features included in three different products - BASIC, LIGHT and PRO. Mobilespy can’t even compete with our entry level FlexiSPY BASIC which offers more functionality and actually costs less.

Mobilespy vs FlexiSPY comparison

Lets tell it like it is.

Mobilespy is completely obvious when installed on iPhones, and it is not undetectable. If you want to capture communication information without the target knowing, then Mobilespy won’t work for you. It also can’t be stopped or controlled remotely. Once Mobilespy is installed, it’s like a bull in a china shop, which cannot be stopped or tamed. If your subscription expires, or if you change your web password, Mobilespy will continue to collect data, filling up the iPhone’s memory. FlexiSPY can be stopped or started, or adjusted at any time, from any place.

FlexiSPY is completely undetectable; it includes email forwarding; it disguises the jailbreak if that’s what you need ; has many control settings and can even be uninstalled or disabled remotely; and it also offers an easy upgrade path to add functions. FlexiSPY also offers spy call features, and the ability to listen to actual phone conversations.

Oh and did we say that Flexi SPY BASIC cheaper than Mobilespy.

In addition to competitive pricing and superior software, we rock when it comes to customer support. FlexiSPY offers24x7 live chat, Skype IM, live phone support from experienced staff, huge knowledge base, and advanced ticket tracking software with a guaranteed 24 hour response. And we promise to answer your questions with no canned answers! Please visit FlexiSPY knowledge base, FAQ and support site.

Installation

Before installing either product you will need to jailbreak your iPhone and install the software. Sorry, installation can’t be done remotely, and you need to have physical possession of the iPhone. Both FlexiSPY and MobileSpy use Cydia to deliver the software but MobileSpy can’t remove the Cydia icon and it is obvious that the device is jailbroken and that something has been added to the phone. Another problem with the Cydia catalogue system that MobileSpy uses is that upon their next product update, the target iPhone will be notified, causing immediate suspicion. In fact, it displays a BIG RED ICON that indicates software has been installed, and prompts removing it.

The final step of installing Mobilespy is to send an SMS with the ID and password. If you have the device in your hands this is okay, but it is a problem if you need to change it later because the target will see the SMS and can then log into the web account. For Mobilespy the ID and password used to deliver events to the web account must be the same one used to log in to look at data. To change the web password, the password on the phone also needs to be changed.

We think keeping the installation discreet is important to most users, and we’ve made the effort to program our software correctly to keep it hidden. Our products use Cydia to download to the iPhone, and, an icon appears that has an interface to set many different variables depending on the product purchased. You can specify to remove the Cydia and admin interface icons after the parameters are set. No one will know FlexiSPY has been installed.

Admin Settings and Controls

One of the key features to keeping spy phone software undetectable is to be able to create event delivery profiles. Mobilespy does not offer this feature. There are no user definable setting in Mobilespy, which means no admin interface or remote control and no way to control when data updates will happen. This doesn’t work well for a real time system and time sensitive situations.

For example, Mobilespy technical supports says that the GPS feature takes readings every thirty minutes, but couldn’t say when events would be updated to the web account.

FlexiSPY lets you choose which events - SMS, Call Records, GPS, Email - you want to capture, the delivery schedule, configurable in one hour increments and a number of events that need to occur before a delivery is attempted. The GPS feature can be configured to take location readings at regular intervals of between 1 and 60 minutes. What this means is that there is full control over how and when data is sent.

FlexiSPY PRO and LIGHT are able to be change settings remotely by SMS commands. FlexiSPY BASIC requires the use of the admin interface, which requires physical possession of the phone.

FlexiSPY also allows remote disabling while MobileSpy does not.

Features and Functions

Mobilespy rounds call duration to the minute, FlexiSPY offers more accurate call times. This is an obvious benefit to knowing what is going on. For SMS and call logs we retrieve the name in the device address book letting you know if it is a known number rather than the cover story that it is a wrong number. This may not sound like much, but in actual use to know that the call or SMS is from someone in the phone address book tells a lot.

FlexiSPY provides an email relay service that will email all new event data to you as soon as it arrives at the server, so there is no need to log in continually. Unlike Mobilespy, password changes at the web login have no effect on the iPhone, and may be changed at any time

FlexiSPY LIGHT does everything BASIC does, but also captures emails from all mail accounts on the iPhone. FlexiSPY PRO adds a remote listening capability also called spy call. This allows you to set a special number in the target device. When the iPhone senses an incoming call from this number, it will silently answer, with no indication on the screen. This allows the spyer to listen into the surroundings of the iPhone. The call will only disconnect when the spyer hangs up, or the iPhone’s phone application icon is touched.

Web Account

FlexiSPY and Mobile Spy use a web-based account to access phone activity information. Both allow you to filter your event by types such as GPS, Call Records, SMS. FlexiSPY has all these plus Email, and a tab called SYSTEM which is used by the device to communicate diagnostic information and problems.

Mobilespy has zero diagnostic capabilities, so if there is a hiccup in the connectivity, or the SIM card is removed, you are high and dry. Call their support when this happens (and we did!), and they will tell you to get the phone and restart the device. Earth calling Mobilespy! It’s a spy phone, how on earth am I going to get access to the device again.

FlexiSPY lets you set the number of events you wish to see and allows you to set a refresh rate for the page, meaning that it will automatically load data as it comes in from the iPhone giving you the data in real time. Mobilespy will only list ten events per page which means lots of clicks and waiting for page loads. We also allow you to see the time in terms of local time, very useful if you don’t like to calculate the difference from where you live to GMT.

The FlexiSPY GPS map system is a lot better than Mobilespy. They simply show the position of a GPS event on a map, our system allows you to animate the movement over a time. There is also a map refresh feature that allows real time position updates on the map.

FlexiSPY allows a full search of any event for any keyword or number, over any time period, even filtering for event direction. Mobilespy limits searches to looking for a record if you know the phone number.

Guarantee

Despite their claims in advertising, Mobilespy does not have an unconditional money back guarantee. We offer a 10 day no-quibble money back guarantee.



Conclusion

If you value your confidentiality, then failure is not an option. FlexiSPY basic is more powerful, more reliable and cheaper than Mobilespy. Its spy phone product features along with the ability to remain hidden and discreet are implemented in a much more professional and elegant manner. And we provide an upgrade path to LIGHT and PRO which offer even more capabilities that are unavailable in any other product.
