Welcome to my SpyHuman Review.
SpyHuman is phone spy app that allows you to track someone’s cell phone activity remotely.
The SpyHuman monitoring software can be used to track the following on Android Phones: SMS Tex Message logs, track GPS Location, social media chats, call logs, website browsing history, contacts, applications, and much more.
Most SpyHuman reviews fail to point out some key features missing in this app. Let’s take a look at how it really compares to other spy apps.
My SpyHuman Review
Pros
- user friendly and easy to install
- very affordable pricing
- record live surroundings
- monitor social media activities
- no rooting required
Cons
- requires physical access to device
- can’t monitor Snapchat or Instagram
- does NOT work on iOS devices
The SpyHuman spy app is designed as a parental monitoring application. It can also be used as an employee monitoring tool.
SpyHuman Features
Most smartphone spy apps have the same basic features. I’ll be comparing the features of the SpyHuman app from both the trial plan and the premium plan, which contains these key features.
Monitor SMS Text Messages
With SpyHuman, you can check all the text messages your kid sends or receives on their Android devices. You can also read deleted text messages.
Call Recording & Call Logs
Call recording or telephone tapping is a feature that allows you to listen to all incoming and outgoing phone calls. When the call is finished the recording is encrypted and uploaded to your online control panel. You can listen to the recording whenever you like.
SpyHuman records the date, phone number, and call duration. It also allows you to block certain phone numbers from calling the target phone.
Contact Book Viewer
SpyHuman allows you to see your kid’s contact list on the target device. Contact information which has been deleted can also be viewed from your control panel.
Website Browsing History
Are you worried your kid is going to inappropriate websites? You can use SpyHuman’s web monitoring features to block these websites.
You can also view their browsing history to see what sites they have visited in the past.
The app shows you how often they visited each site and how long they stayed on each page.
Anti-Theft Feature
With SpyHuman, you get to protect your kids and even save the day with the ANTI-THEFT FEATURE.
If a thief decides to snatch your kid’s phone, you’ll get an instant notification.
If they try any kind of funny business with the phone sim, you’ll get an instant SIM change notification to inform you.
Social Media Activities
Like other spy apps, SpyHuman can track your child’s social media apps. You can see how much time they spend on these apps. This includes spying on Snapchat, monitoring Instagram, and spying on Whatsapp. You will also be able to see their conversations in each of their social media accounts.
GPS Location Tracker
One of the most important features of spy apps is the ability to track the GPS location of a phone. It will also show you a history of where they have been as well as their current whereabouts. The GPS tracker updates regularly, but depends on their wi-fi or cell signal for accuracy. If the phone is out of cell range or in airplane mode, this feature will not report accurately.
Remote File Explorer
You can check your kid’s images app and file manager to check if the images, videos, and other media files they’re keeping on the target phone are all safe and appropriate.
You can even do a REMOTE FILE DOWNLOAD, so you don’t even have to take their gadget to check it from there.
Photos & Media
You can see all photos and media stored on the device.
App Restrictions
You can use SpyHuman to set restrictions on specific apps. The app tracker function allows you to have complete control by setting permissions on each app.
SpyHuman Pricing
How much does SpyHuman cost?
Trial Version
Before committing to SpyHuman, customers get a 7 day trial of the free version.
The trial features of SpyHuman include:
- Call logs
- Messages access
- Location tracking
- Contact details
- Social media apps
- Browsing history
- Website blocker
- Remote file manager
- Image gallery access

So while you get access to these features for 7 days, you only get to monitor one device with your account.
You also need to deal with ads and the storage limit when you use the trial version of SpyHuman.
Premium Features
So you think the Premium plan offers more features?
Not exactly.
You get all the same features except you don’t have to deal with ads, and you have unlimited storage space for all the things you download and view from the target device.
So how much does this cost?
You get to use the advanced features of the SpyHuman app at a MONTHLY SUBSCRIPTION FEE OF $9.99.
SpyHuman App Installation
Okay, so how do you install SpyHuman on the target device?
To install the SpyHuman app you’ll need access to the intended monitored device.
Here are the installation steps.
- Go to Settings > Lock Screen and Security and enable Unknown sources for Android.
- Go to the Google Playstore and disable Play Protect.
- Download the SpyHuman APK from their website and install it on the target device.
- Sign up for a new account and verify your email address.
- Log in and configure your app according to the Operating System requirements, which should be shown on the screen.
Once these steps are completed, you will have access to the monitored device from your admin panel.
To log into the SpyHuman admin panel you will need to go to the company website and add the target device. You will now have access to the phone through the monitoring app.
Compatibility
SpyHuman is an Android app that you must download through an APK.
For that, the android device must be version 3.0 and up.
Customer Service & Support
SpyHuman has a support team that can answer your questions through a message box on their site.
Their customer support team is NOT AVAILABLE 24/7. So you will need to submit an email if the support team is offline.
They have an automated response system and the FAQ at SpyHuman.com contains many common installation issues.
Who Should Use SpyHuman?
While this app may seem like it’s only for parents looking after their children, employers can also utilize this app to check on their employees.
That way, employers can see if their employees aren’t running off with the company mobile phone.
The only prerequisite is that the target device must be an Android device.
SpyHuman Alternatives
Here are a few of my favorite SpyHuman alternatives.
SpyHuman vs uMobix
uMobix is currently my top pick among all spy apps on the market. It offers the most features, reliability, a great refund policy, and the best tech support in the industry.
And at $11.66 per month when you purchase the annual plan it’s one of the cheapest options on the market as well. You can read more about it in my uMobix spying app review.
SpyHuman vs. mSpy
While you can download SpyHuman app on any Android gadget, what if your kid owns an Apple product like an iPhone or an iPad?
If so, then the mSpy app could be a better fit for your needs.
You get all the same monitoring features SpyHuman has to offer you, like viewing call logs, text messages, social media logs, and more with the added addition of being available on IOS devices.
However, what keeps mSpy ahead is it also offers other advanced features like geofencing and even access to a keylogger!
Your only possible issue with this app is that it COSTS WAY MORE.
- 1 Month – $48.99/mo
- 3 Months – $27.99/mo
- 12 Months – $11.66/mo
This is best to keep that in mind if you’re not keen on splurging money on a monitoring app. For more information check out my mSpy vs SpyHuman comparison.
SpyHuman vs. Spyera
Like SpyHuman, Spyera can monitor the intended targeted device with its messages, call logs, location data, and more.
But Spyera does more than just that.
It’s also got a GEOFENCING FEATURE you can use to check if your kid is staying inside the parameters you’ve set. You can see when they leave it and return if they ever do.
It’s also got a KEYLOGGING FEATURE you can use to keep track of your kid’s passwords and PINs, especially if they’ve recently changed it.
And the best part about Spyera is that it’s compatible with both Android and IOS!
Again, the only limit is the price with Spyera.
- Smart Phone (Andriod or IOS) – $89/mo
- Tablet (Android tablet or iPad) – $69/mo
- Computer (Windows or Mac) – $49/mo
- All in one – $479/mo
Each package only lets you monitor one device at a time, which means you’ll need to buy another package if you want to add more devices.
The All in one package is the same: you only get to add one device in each category.
FAQs
Here are some frequently asked questions about this app.
Is SpyHuman Legal?
If you feel nervous regarding the legality of this app, don’t worry.
