Fulfillment Specialist Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.) 4/7/2023 "Great app to monitor your kid's internet activity" 4.5/5 What do you like best about mSpy? The most helpful thing about mSpy is it's ability to fully monitor your children's internet activity. I personally have a nephew so whenever he comes to visit, it's nice to make sure that he isn't going on sites that he shouldn't be going on, as well as ensuring that he isn't viewing anything that a kid shouldn't come across via social media. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com. What do you dislike about mSpy? I'd say the biggest downside about mSpy is the value of it. For a per-month subscription, you'll have to pay around $69 (although they do have frequent promos in where you can get it for $48 instead). Unfortunately, in terms of the subscription, it is on a per device basis so although you're paying a lot of money, you're only going to be able to use it for one device. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com. What problems is mSpy solving and how is that benefiting you? The main problem that mSpy is solving is being able to safely monitor the internet activity of whoever's device it is installed on. This personally benefits me because it allows me to help monitor the kid's devices in my family to ensure that they are safe online and aren't talking to strangers or going to sites that they shouldn't be going on.
