Potential Limitations

Of course there could be some limitations in using mSpy's screen recorder to capture Android WhatsApp video calls. They are:

  • Capture of Whole Screen Actions: It captures the display part of WhatsApp video calls.
  • Problems with App Compatibility: Sometimes, it may not be capable of capturing activities happening on the phone due to the security measures imposed by this app as a way of protecting users’ privacy which results into showing blank screens or incomplete videos.
  • Inconsistent Audio Recording: On different devices and WhatsApp versions, it may fail to record sound during video calls made through Whats App hence resulting into silent recordings.

 

Conclusion

In summary, my research on mSpy Screen Recorder proved that it is a feature-rich tool for monitoring Whatsapp video calls on Android. Combined with some other options like stealth mode and the ability to take screenshots, these have made this application very effective in monitoring all kinds of digital communications secretly but exhaustively.
