Myth No. 5: Can We Listen to live phone calls after installing a phone spying app?
Numerous call recording apps claim that they enable users to listen to live phone calls, but that’s not true. You cannot record live cellphone calls, but spy apps are used to record live cellphone calls and then deliver the data to the user control panel where they can listen to the recorded calls.

Users cannot listen to the live cellphone calls at the time it starts at the user’s end.

Almost every phone spy software user has heard fake stories from fraudsters that their application can track and monitor the target phone at Airplane Mode. It is a half-truth because Airplane mode put your device service off and network service on the phone unable to receive anything like phone calls, messages, and other activities.

However, social messaging activities and other stuff that require internet access only get monitored.

Myth No.7: Is a phone spying app a Trojan?
The consumer-based spy apps are not Trojans at all because Trojan is not a common thing that everyone can get their hands on. The anti-virus companies used to bring false accusations on cellphone surveillance apps and label them as malicious malware. The malware does not require the consent of the target device users and uses it for digital parenting and employee monitoring solutions.
Final Verdict: Tracker apps like TheOneSpy are one of those users –friendly applications that provide monitoring solutions to struggling parents and employers worried about kid’s online activities and business productivity.
