Realtime-Spy has been tested on, and is fully compatible with all Android devices running Android OS 2.0 and up. PC and MAC versions are also available.

No - Realtime-Spy is designed to record as much activity as possible without you having to root your device and potentially damage it.

This is by design - the module will install and run invisibly once you enter your Realtime-Spy username and password.

Unlike other monitoring packages, Realtime-Spy is VERY small in size (less than 600kb) and will take only a few moments to download. The installation process will complete in less than a minute.

Yes, you can use the Realtime-Spy archive utility in your member's area to download logs from your account for future viewing and use.

Realtime-Spy will work with any internet connection. If a connection is not available Realtime-Spy will upload log data when a connection is re-established. You will be able to always access your logs via your webspace. No need for IP addresses, port numbers, or directly connecting to the remote device!

Once you start monitoring a device, the device and its logs will appear in your account. Please wait a few minutes from when the logging app is first ran for the first sets of logs to appear.

Simply use the password form under the 'Account Management' section in your member's area. This password change will effect remotely deployed Realtime-Spy apps - if you change your password they will not longer update your webspace with logs until you reconfigure their passwords.

First you should ensure that the software is still running on the remote device.
If it is not, then re-run the installation file to restart monitoring. Second, verify that you have not changed your password after creating and installing the app on the target device. Changing your password will cause the Realtime-Spy application to be unable to access your account to store logs.

Your Realtime-Spy account can hold up to 500 photo captures at any given time. 500 more photo captures can be added to your storage limit for $19.95. You can increase your storage capacity as many times as you need.
