Phone Tracker App iOS Version
It goes without saying that we live in a digital world. Almost every aspect of our society is intertwined with the internet, and virtually nothing that we do today can be done without it. It virtually does not matter what you do or what your life's calling is – you most certainly depend on the internet in some sort of fashion.
But, adults are not the only ones that use internet and all that comes with it on a daily basis. Our kids do it, too. Kids need internet for school and to stay in touch with their friends, and more often than not – they use it much more than we do. However, what we know much better than they do is that internet can be a pretty scary place.
There are all sorts of potential dangers and risks that might be lurking around the virtual corner, and it is our duty as parents to protect the children from the things they aren’t aware of. But, how do you do that? You can't just prevent them from using the internet, can you? And even if you could – you shouldn't. The pros far outweigh the cons. So, there's nothing you can do there.
However, what you can do is make sure they're safe by monitoring their online activity through our iOS app – the Phone Tracker app. If that sounds interesting – here's how and why you should do it.
How to install the Phone Tracker app?
Unlike many other free phone tracker apps, ours does not require you do to anything shady, unethical or tech-savvy. The only way to make this app work is to install it on the target device. As we've said, there is nothing shady about it. Phone Tracker app can be found on the AppStore, and all you need to do is just download it. Loosely translated, this means that this is not a hidden app. You won't need to jailbreak or root your device in order to install it, nor will the app be hidden from the user. As long as you are the owner of the device you wish to track, you have every legal and ethical right to install and use it.
This also means that your kids will be aware that the app is installed on their devices. We are all about transparency and keeping our users safe and comfortable, which only goes to show that Phone Tracker is not your regular spying app.
As far as compatibility goes, Phone Tracker is available across all devices, including all iOS, as well as Android devices. If your device runs on iOS and has a SIM card – the app will be compatible. This includes both iPhones and iPads, regardless of the model.
The installation process is very straightforward and simple. All you have to do is go to the AppStore, type in "Phone Tracker", and download our app. Once you've downloaded the app, all you have to do is run it, create an account, agree to the terms and conditions, and you'll be all set. The entire process should not last more than a minute or two.
Why should you use the Phone Tracker app?
The answer to this question is quite simple. Phone Tracker offers a lot more compared to some of the other spying, monitoring and mobile tracker apps you can find online. Since we don’t want to simply make that claim and leave it at that, we are going to tell you all about the neat features that you can enjoy and benefit from while using our app.
As you could imagine, we hold ourselves to a higher standard compared to the competition because we want to make sure our app meets and exceeds everyone’s standards, which is one of the reasons why the Phone Tracker has been deemed “The World’s Leading Phone Tracker” with millions of satisfied users worldwide.
So, without further ado, allow us to introduce you to some of the features the Phone Tracker app offers.
View And Download Contacts
While we are sure that you have had a conversation on the dangers of the internet with your children, you can't really trust that they've taken it all to heart. Quite frankly, kids don't like listening to their parents, and no matter how many times you tell them that they should not trust strangers they meet online – they will still do it. Hopefully, they will be smart and wise enough not to communicate too much with them or share some personal information like the address or phone numbers.
Now, the kids are not to blame here because even grown-ups make these mistakes. Everyone can be subject to a scam or trusting someone they shouldn’t have. Be that as it may, it is your responsibility to know who your child is conversing with and, if need be – protect them from that person in one way or another.
How does viewing and downloading contacts help you with that? Well, it's rather simple, really. Once you install the app, one of the first things you'll notice is that the app allows you to gain a full insight into the contact list of the target device. Not only will you be able to see every contact from the control panel on your device or a computer, but you will also be able to see the number and also how recently the number was added to the list. If the number looks suspicious, or if you notice your child talking to a contact named Pizza Delivery or something like that – you can do a quick check and find out what's going on.
Also, you can download a copy of the entire contact list at any time you want if you'd like to perform a thorough check-up.
Reverse Phone Tracking
Reverse phone tracking is one of the most sought-after features in monitoring and tracking apps. Most of the apps offer this feature, but clearly, some apps do a much better job at this. Some apps will only ping you an approximate location of the device, which is ok, but not nearly good enough, especially if you are willing to pay a subscription fee to use an app.
Reverse phone tracking and contact viewing work very well together. Let's go back to the Pizza Delivery example. If you notice some inappropriate messages from an unknown contact that you can't identify based on the name it’s saved under, you can rely on reverse phone tracking to help you out.
This feature allows you to learn who is on the other end of the line. It does so by accessing what is called a YPhone Data. Loosely translated, accessing this data will give you a brief overview of the person on the other side. You will be able to learn their name and address, alongside many other things. What you decide to do with that information is up to you, but nevertheless, you will have that information at your disposal.
Unfortunately, even a well-developed feature such as this one has its limitations. Namely, not every US number can be reverse-tracked due to things that aren't in our own control. However, most of them can be. Therefore, although small, we have to say that there is a real chance that this feature turns out to be ineffective.
GPS Tracking
Reverse phone tracking is one of the most sought-after features in monitoring and tracking apps. Most of the apps offer this feature, but clearly, some apps do a much better job at this. Let’s talk about why you should care about this feature.
GPS phone tracking allows you to know exactly where your kid is – at all times. It doesn't matter whether it is 2 am or 2 pm – you are only a click away from knowing the exact whereabouts of your child. This almost entirely eliminates the constant worry all parents experience when their child is absent. It doesn't matter whether your child has gone to school or to the mall with friends - your parental instincts will kick in and have you worry about them no matter what. To be perfectly candid, we are not saying you will stop worrying once you install this app, but you will never again have to wonder where your kid is.
To make this feature work, you will have to make sure you have the GPS location turned on, on the target device. Without it, this feature will not be able to work since there will be no way to determine the phones precise GPS coordinates without it. This does make it possible for your child to “sabotage” your efforts to keep them safe, but that is just something you will have to find another way to deal with.
Either way, if the GPS is on, the location of the target device will be automatically refreshed every half hour. If you want, you can manually refresh the location every time you please, but even if you forget to do it – the app will do it on its own.
GPS Fencing – Coming Soon
GPS tracking is not the only feature that utilizes the GPS chip that every phone has. GPS fencing is a new and exciting feature that we are proud to announce will be launched on both iOS and Android in the near future. At the moment, it is not available to our customers, as is it is still in the final stages of testing and development, and we wouldn't want to launch a buggy feature, especially when it comes to important things like the safety of your child. Because of it, we urge you to be patient for just a little bit more, while we put the finishing touches on the GPS fencing feature, so that we can deliver you with one of the first, fully-functioning GPS fencing apps on the market.
If you can't tell by the name, GPS fencing is a feature that utilizes the location of the target device in a similar fashion like GPS tracking does, only with an added feature many of you have patiently been waiting for. Basically, this feature allows you to set up a radius you consider is safe for your child to be in and to receive a notification any time your child leaves the said location. As you can see, that is where the term "fencing" comes from.
Generally speaking, you would be setting up a virtual fence that your child should stay within, and if they don’t – you will be prompted by a notification from the app that your child has left it. There are many possible scenarios in which this feature could turn out to be useful.
For starters, you will enjoy knowing that your kid is safe and sound at all times and that they won't try and sneak off to places you wouldn't want them to. Also, it will limit your child's ability to lie to you about their whereabouts. For instance, you know how you used to lie to your parents about going to your friend's house to study, but instead, you were at a house party at a completely different friend's house. Well, that will no longer be possible to your kid because you could virtually just place a GPS fence around the house your child is supposed to be in, and if they're not there – you'll know. Finally, this will prevent your kid from skipping school, as you'll, once again, be able to set a perimeter around the school and see whether your child stays there or not.
Final Thoughts
As you can see, all of these features are design with a single goal in mind – to keep your child safe. It is not designed for you to spy on your partner or anything of sorts. It is just an app that allows you to enjoy peace of mind, knowing your child is safe and sound.
Naturally, aside from these features, you will also be able to keep track of their calls and text messages and so on, but since most monitoring and tracking apps offer the same thing, we decided to focus on the things that they don't, and we do.
Hopefully, you've found this article informative and confidence-instilling. Take care.
