It seems that in recent years most of society, especially the younger generations, have turned to texting as their preferred mode of conversation. The infinite ability to communicate with other people around the world effortlessly has become a growing concern for parents and employers alike who wish to 'keep an eye on', or monitor, their children or employees. In this post we will discuss the methods and implications of text message spying.

Methods To Spy On Text Messages

There are several methods to spy on text messages, however we would only discuss the following two methods which happen to be easy for parents/employeers to monitor their children/employees  activities.

Method 1: Using a Spying App

The easiest way to spy on text messages is to use one of spying application. Today there exist literally hundred's of products claiming to spy on text messages, however most of them are overpriced or they are not compatible with wide variety of smartphones. With that being said, there are still very few spying softwares that stand out to competition and one of my favorite is mspy.

mspy posses state of art stealth capabilities to spy on various text messaging applications such as Whatsapp, Viber, Facebok Messenger, LINE so on and so forth. Apart from that you can also monitor call logs and track location of smartphone (Absolutely must have for Parents).  The best part being that you don't have to jailbreak your iOS device or root your android device in order to install it.

How it works?

Upon placing and order for mspy, you would receive an application that you have to install on target's phone by simply launching the browser from the target phone, typing the URL and downloading and executing the application. Once you have successfully installed it, it would send alerts to your control panel or account which would be created once you have signed up. In case of any issue you can simply contact their 24/7 support team.

Method 2: Using SIM Card Reader To Recover Messages

In case, if you can't afford an spying app, you could look for free alternatives, however there are few drawbacks to it. One being that a lot of them found on forums are backdoored, also they require good amount of technical knowledge to setup and operate. Another way is to buy a SIM card reader from market and use victim's SIM card to recover messages or phone contacts stored on it.

Requirements

• PC/SC compliant smart card reader

Note: Some phones tend to keep messages inside their internal memory, in that case you have to move messages from internal memory to SIM card. 

Step 1: Download "Dekart SIM Manager"from here.

Step 2: Once the sim card has been plugged into the SIM card reader and the card reader has been connected to your computer. Press the"READ" button to read the messages, GSM contacts, last dialed numbers etc. 

Step  3 -> Since, our aim here is to recover deleted messages, we would go to the "SMS messages" tab. To recover a message right click on a message and select "Undelete" option.  Once this is done, press the "Write" button to write it on the sim card. 

Note: The messages marked in "RED" are deleted messages where as the messages marked in black are the ones which are still available on the sim card.

Note: Please note that this method can only be used to recover SMS messages that are stored on the SIM not Whatsapp, Viber etc messages. To overcome this, I would suggest you to use method 1.
