If you're grappling with these questions, this blog is just what you need. As a professional spy app reviewer, I'll share my firsthand experience with uMobix, providing you with a clearer understanding of this software from my perspective.

Our Verdict

uMobix is a spy app that can monitor both Android and iPhone devices, allowing you to remotely monitor browsing history, bookmarks, photos, videos, and more on the targeted phones.

Monitoring Social Media on Android Devices

Part 1. Deep Dive Review of uMobix's Android Monitoring Features

During my testing, I found that uMobix's Android monitoring features were quite impressive and met my needs satisfactorily.

1.1. How does uMobix work on an Android

You need to have access to the target device and then install the software on it. After the installation is complete, you follow on-screen instructions to grant data permissions, such as for SMS, photos, videos, etc. The entire process typically takes around 10-15 minutes.

1.2. Specific monitoring features of uMobix for Android

uMobix can monitor nearly 20 different activities on Android phones. The table below provides detailed information on what activities uMobix can monitor.

General features review:

• SMS

uMobix allows you to view all incoming and outgoing text messages on the target device, including detailed information such as the message content, sender's name or phone number, and the time the message was received.

• Calls

Umobix call monitoring feature allows you to see all incoming, outcoming, and missed calls secretly. What's more, it can allow you to block callers. The feature can be quite useful, especially for parents who are concerned about their children receiving unwanted calls or harassment from strangers.

• Photo snapshot

You can take photos using the front or rear camera of your target device. One photo per minute. Whether you can take a photo successfully is affected by many factors, such as the target device has locked the screen, bad Wi-Fi, etc.

• Videos

The feature enables you to see all videos saved on the Android phone you want to monitor.

• Address book

uMobix can help you to see the contact list on the target phone.

• Browsers

You can see the record of browser usage.

Social media monitoring feature review:

uMobix monitors social media by taking screenshots of the target device whenever a social media app is opened. These screenshots are captured every 10 seconds.

While this method allows monitoring across multiple platforms, it has drawbacks.

Firstly, sifting through numerous screenshots may be necessary to find relevant content. Secondly, the 10-second interval increases the risk of missing crucial information, potentially disrupting the flow of conversations and preventing the viewing of complete chat content.

Below, I will use WhatsApp, Instagram, and Snapchat as examples to show you how they are presented in the uMobix dashboard.

• WhatsApp

• Instagram

• Snapchat

Part 2. Deep Dive Review of uMobix's iPhone Monitoring Features

uMobix can secretly monitor someone's iPhone. Let's take a look together at its iPhone monitoring evaluation!

2.1. How does uMobix work on an iPhone

Unlike other spy app I've used, uMobix doesn't rely on iCloud connectivity. Instead, it uses an APP+iCloud connection method. This means you need to first get access to the target device and install the software. After installation, you input the target device's iCloud account and password into the uMobix dashboard.

You might wonder if it's possible to only install the software on the target device without inputting the iCloud account and password into the uMobix dashboard. The answer is yes, it's possible. However, in doing so, your remote monitoring features will be very limited.

2.2. Specific monitoring features of uMobix for iPhone

You can check out this table to see what data uMobix can monitor.

General features review:

• Download files

You can see the download files in the uMobix dashboard.

• Address book

The feature allows you to check the contact list stored in the target phone.

• Browser history & browser bookmarks

uMobix allows you to see what websites the monitored person has visited and what bookmarks they have saved.

• Locations

uMobix's location tracker allows you to see where he/she is and where they have been. It's very accurate and is updated in real-time (about every 5-10 minutes).

• Applications & Activities

With the monitoring features, you can know the app usage of the target phone.

If you want to monitor data such as Messages, Notes, WiFi, Calendar, Camera, and Calls, you'll need to input the iCloud account and password of the iPhone being monitored. When you login, you need to get the target device again to view the SMS verification code.

Social media monitoring feature review:

In my view, uMobix cannot monitor social media activities on iPhones. This is because its dashboard indicates that to view social media content, besides installing the software on the target device, you also need to know the username and password for each social media account on the monitored device. Even if you have this information, you'll still need to input a verification code. This process is cumbersome and easily detectable.

Part 3. uMobix Plans & Pricing

uMobix offers three payment plans: 1 month, 3 months, and 12 months. Calculating the monthly cost, the 12-month plan is the most cost-effective.

Before using uMobix, please note that its iOS monitoring features are significantly fewer than its Android counterpart.

Overall, uMobix is quite pricey. I don't recommend it for users who want to monitor iOS devices because the iOS version lacks many features.

Unfortunately, uMobix doesn't offer a free trial or a refund guarantee. To try its features, you must purchase a monthly package. uMobix has a 14-day refund period, but the refund conditions are strict.

A reminder for users who have already made a purchase: if you have successfully linked the target device and accessed the uMobix dashboard, please do not randomly click "Add New Device". Clicking this will automatically prompt uMobix to purchase again without any warning or need for re-entering payment details.

Part 4. uMobix Installation & Setup

For Android and iPhone, there's a slight difference in the connecting process for uMobix. Next, I will demonstrate each one separately.

If you want to monitor an Android device, please follow the steps:

Step 1. Sign up for a free account with your email.

Step 2. Choose the "Android" option.

Step 3. Choose your price plan.

Step 4. Download the uMobix APP on the target Android device.

Step 5. After finishing all the above connection process, you can start to monitor someone's Android phones remotely.

If you want to monitor an iPhone, please follow the steps:

The process for connecting iOS devices is similar to connecting Android ones. You'll need to register for a free account, select the iOS device you want to monitor, and make a payment. Once the payment is successful, you'll install the software on the iPhone you want to monitor.

However, as mentioned earlier, if you only install the software on the target iPhone, you'll only be able to monitor Download files, Locations, Browser history, Browser bookmarks, Applications, Activities, and Address book. If you want to monitor Messages, Notes, WiFi, Calendar, Camera, and Calls, you'll need to go through iCloud authentication.

Part 5. uMobix Customer Support & After-Sales Experience

Overall, my experience with uMobix customer service has been excellent. Whenever I have had any issues, I've been able to find help online promptly.

uMobix offers a 14-day refund service, but it doesn't mean you can just request a refund whenever you want. Refunds are subject to their company's refund policy for the possibility of a successful refund.

Part 6. What Real Users Say about uMobix

In order to make the evaluation more fair and objective, I collected reviews shared by other users on the reputable review website Trustpilot. Overall, there is a polarization, with both positive and negative reviews. Let's approach this objectively.

Through in-depth evaluations, we've found that uMobix has its pros and cons. But is there an alternative? The answer is yes!

Msafely is a professional spy software that can monitor both Android and iPhone devices. Unlike uMobix's complex connection process, Msafely offers a simpler setup process, with powerful monitoring capabilities. You can remotely monitor SMS, call logs, locations, photos, videos, as well as social apps like WhatsApp, Facebook, Telegram, and Snapchat.
