3 Ways to Track Someone Else’s Smartphone
Ways to Track Someone Else’s Smartphone: Have you ever wanted to track what the other person is doing on their smartphone, where they go, and why? If yes, this article is for you.
Ways to Track Someone Else’s Smartphone
1. How to track another phone through a carrier?
All four federal telecom operators provide the mobile device tracking service. So, “Megafon” provides a service called “Radar,” thanks to which you can track phone without permission with app of the user of any other cellular network. A similar service is provided by “Beeline”: it is called “Locator” and makes it possible to track the location of any subscriber with an accuracy of up to 250 meters.
This is what the Locator program looks like.
With MegaFon, the service can be used no more than a hundred times a day, with Beeline – no more than once every five minutes. The other two operators do not have such a cool functionality – they can only track their own subscribers. You can connect services on the company’s website.
2. How to track the location of a person through instant messengers?
Viber and WhatsApp allow you to collect data about another person – but, again, only if that person has agreed to do so. Well, or did not agree, but opened such an opportunity through the messenger’s settings.
To open access to location data via WhatsApp, you need to go into a chat with a specific contact, select the “Add” item (the paperclip icon in the message sending field), then the “Location” item, and click on “Share Location Data.”
In Viber, a person can also be tracked in the same way only if he allows you to. In the dialog box, to enable geolocation, you need to activate the arrow symbol next to the send message button or click on the three-dot menu in the same place, and then select the “Send location” item. If the user wants to know the location of the interlocutor, he will need to perform the same operation on his smartphone.
3. Tracking using iOS or Android software tools
You can find out the location of another phone using standard applications in the operating system. For example, through Google Maps. To do this, on the monitored phone, you need to go to the application, activate the “Show where I am” menu item, specify your phone number, email, and tracking period. Then you need to go to the same menu item in the application on your smartphone and specify the data of the person you are following.
The data that is in a person’s smartphone is considered information from closed sources. Access to it is possible only with the consent of the owner of the gadget.
If you decide to collect information about the subscriber covertly, be aware that this violates the Constitution of the Russian Federation and you can be quite reasonably sued.
So if you suddenly really want to secretly follow the windy girlfriend or husband who has taken the habit of dragging out lunch breaks, you better leave these ideas. But if you’re going to ensure elderly relatives or be sure that the children are in order, smartphone tracking can help.
That is why we do not recommend that you install spyware on your smartphone to spy on other people and do not share links with them.
And if you picked up the phone of a relative or friend, and saw in it an installed program called TalkLog, Cell Phone Spy, TrackView, or StealthGenie, know that this person is spying on someone.
