How to Monitor Emails Sent to a Smartphone

With various different monitoring programs and apps, it is actually quite easy to monitor emails sent to a smartphone.

Whilst there are different approaches to take, the best way to keep track of emails and other messages sent and received via smartphone is to install a type of monitoring software.

Below we’ll give a few examples of how monitoring software can be used to keep track of emails sent to a smartphone.

 

Installing the Monitoring Software

Before monitoring software is installed to your smartphone, it is not easy to accurately monitor any emails sent or received. Because of this, it’s best to install monitoring software onto the smartphone you would like to monitor as soon as possible.

Once it is installed, it is mostly hidden from view from the smartphone owner, and you will be able to access the content on a dashboard, accessible from a desktop PC. Because you will need to use the smartphone yourself to install the software, you may need to ask the smartphone owner’s permission.

If you own the smartphone and you are lending it to somebody, such as an employee or a child, it will be much easier to install it without any questions asked.

 

Monitoring Emails

Once you have installed the monitoring software, you will be able to read up on any emails sent or received on the smartphone you are monitoring. Email monitoring features from various software such as mSpy or Flexispy will be able to read incoming and outgoing email messages.

The content within the emails, as well as the email title will be displayed to you. You’ll also be able to see who sent the email, and whether the address is in the smartphone owner’s address book.

If you need to find out more information about emails, you’ll be able to use the dashboard to find out when emails were sent and received.

Monitoring emails is pretty straight forward with the monitoring service – accessing the email feature from your monitoring dashboard will give you tips on how to make sure everything is working.

 

Other Monitoring Tools

Unfortunately monitoring software does typically charge a subscription fee, but you may find enough value within such software to make paying for the subscription worth it.

As well as being able to keep track of sent and receive email messages, you can also monitor text messages, IM conversations and even call logs and data.

Certain monitoring software can even keep track of the smartphone’s location via GPS or keep track of any web pages that may have been visited on the smartphone browser.

There are dozens of features that can be used in most cell phone monitoring programs, and it’s likely you’ll find a variety of tools that will prove handy.
