Diving into contact details

So what contacts information can I see with mSpy? The main purpose of this software application in contact monitoring is to provide an insight on the basic yet significant details that are saved in an address book on a particular device:

Contact's name
Phone number
Email address

These are the the basic information that I was able to see from each contact. However, I noticed that this tool goes even further by acquiring additional data such as their home addresses, alternative phone numbers or private notes. Bascially, it's any info about the contact that was added by the user.

The limitations: contacts location tracking

A question that frequently pops up is if mSpy can track location of contacts. The answer to that is no. It can only track the location of the target device using GPS functionality. I don't think that such feature will ever be allowed because being able to track the locations of contacts because that's already an invasion of their privacy.

Beyond basic contact information: messaging insights

Now you might be wondering if I can I see the messages that were exchanged with contacts using mSpy. Yes, this is possible via the "Text Messages" feature. Do take note though that this is a separate functionality and this cannot be accessed when you're on the "Contacts" dashboard.

Personal insights and discoveries

I have been trying to understand mSpy’s multifacetedness in terms of modern communication. Although the Contacts section is the starting point, the Text Messages section would tell you more about it. Such a distinction is important for anyone who wants to understand what patterns of communication are on a device under monitoring.

The depth of data

I was surprised with the depths of data that can be accessed via mSpy. It is not just about knowing who are in their contact list; it is also about gauging how much information has been shared with these contacts.

Concluding insights

mSpy goes far beyond basic details when it comes to contact information analysis. It also incorporates all those extra things that were saved by on the target device. It offers so much data that you might find useful but I strongly recommend to exercise caution when using this feature.
