This page brings together all our reviews, covering parental control apps, scam detection software, employee monitoring tools, VPNs, and identity protection. We cover what works, what doesn’t, and who it’s best for, so you can make the best decision for yourself, your business or your family.
Hoverwatch runs in stealth mode and monitors calls, texts, GPS, social media, and even desktop activity. But is it really effective for parents or businesses, or does it try to do too much?
Scannero promises a simple way to find any phone’s location using only its number. Instead of installing software, it sends a text link that reveals live GPS data once clicked. It’s quick, easy, and ideal for one-off checks, but is it accurate enough to trust, and how useful is it compared to full monitoring apps?
I spent two weeks testing Spynger with my wife in a fully consensual setup to see exactly how it performs in real-world use, and yes, she knew I was testing spy software on her phone, which probably makes us the only couple in history to voluntarily sign up for this level of scrutiny. We installed it on her Android phone, monitored activity for two weeks, and compared what appeared in the dashboard with her actual movements and messages. I also read through more than 185 user reviews to confirm our findings lined up with the broader user experience.
eyeZy positions itself as an all-in-one parental control app designed to give parents full oversight of a child’s digital life. It promises access to texts, calls, GPS and social media, plus extras like keyword alerts and app blocking. That makes it sound like a balanced mix of monitoring and control – but does it live up to the promise, or is it just another spy app in disguise?
SpyBubble promises to give you quick insight into calls, texts, and apps without drowning you in unnecessary features. I spent several weeks testing it across iOS and Android devices to see if it really works. What I found was a no-frills spy app that delivers the essentials smoothly – but it’s not without trade-offs.
uMobix offers real-time tracking across 30+ social platforms, messages, calls, GPS, and even live device access. But does it provide real parental control, or it just surveillance?
mSpy promises parents complete oversight of a child’s device, with hidden monitoring of texts, calls, GPS and social apps. But does it really work in practice, or is it spyware dressed up as child safety software?
The Life360 app goes beyond basic location sharing, adding crash detection, SOS alerts, and roadside assistance. I used it with my family for ten months, including during a real roadside emergency, and it proved both reassuring and occasionally frustrating. In this review, I’ll share how it performed, where it stood out, and whether the premium plans are really worth it.
Norton Family is designed to help parents keep kids safer online with time limits, app blocking, and web filters. But does it really stand out in a crowded parental control market? In this review, I’ll break down its features, how it works in everyday use, and whether it’s the right choice for your family.
Not every family needs complex parental controls or deep social media monitoring. Kidslox takes a different approach, focusing on reliable screen time limits, location tracking, and instant device lock when parents need it most. In this review, I’ll explain how it works in practice, what it does well, and where it falls short compared to more advanced options.
