Weigh up for yourself whether it is safe for you to search for spyware on your phone. Especially in toxic relationships where violence is expected, it may be better not to look for it.

More information

As the person who may have installed the spy app on your phone can see everything you do, this could potentially put you at risk. It is better to secretly get a second device and use it to contact special help centers.

Particularly important for the following target groups:

  • Stalking and women's shelters

Other categories

  • Dangers due to direct access
  • Rather simple
