The first option you have is to use Xnspy for monitoring browsing history on someone’s phone. As you hear of this method, you might be reluctant to try it first because you are supposed to use a third-party app to view the browsing history. However, it is very reliable for keeping tabs on someone’s browsing history from a remote location without touching their phone.
You must install the app on the device you want to monitor and that will just take 5 to 10 minutes of your time and you are ready to go from there.
The steps below explain how you can remotely view someone’s search and browsing history:
You will begin by subscribing to Xnspy and installing it on the target device (device that you will be tracking). For installation, you will need physical access to the phone. Follow the instructions emailed to you at the time of subscribing to the app for installing it on the device. Wait for 24 to 48 for Xnspy to transfer data from the target phone to its web account.
Now that 48 hours have passed, log into your web account by visiting https://cp.xnspy.com/ Enter your credentials and you will be taken to XNSPY Dashboard. This dashboard has all the controls that let you navigate through the target device remotely from a single interface. It will look something like this:
The dashboard has a menu on its left. From this menu, choose ‘Phone logs’ and then ‘Internet History’ from the drop-down list.
The screen will now show you the ‘Internet History Log’ of the target device. There will be links to the websites visited by the target device. You will also be able to see the time and date stamps for each URL.
Along with letting you see the web browsing history, Xnspy also shows the sites bookmarked by the target phone. The same ‘Internet History Log’ has a ‘Bookmark’ tab. Simply click on it to view the favorite sites of the person you are monitoring. You will find the ‘Bookmark’ tab here:
You can also track the browsing history of the target person in real-time. You will be glad to know that even if the person deletes his browsing history, Xnspy still lets you monitor it as long a backup is created. Xnspy is a reliable way of monitoring someone’s search and browsing history because you don’t need the target device to see how a person spends time on the internet. You don’t also necessarily have to be disappointed if the browsing history is deleted as Xnspy creates a backup pretty quickly.
Xnspy gives you the opportunity to see the top 10 frequently visited sites from the monitored device’s browser. This feature comes in handy when you don’t have the time to check each and every website that they have browsed.
With the top 10 feature, you get to see the frequently visited sites as well as the number of times that each URL was accessed by the user. It is like a snapshot of what the user browses.
One easy way to track someone’s search and browsing history is to access their smartphone, open the browser and see what they are up to. We all are familiar with this one.
If it’s an iPhone, they would probably be using Safari browser.
If the owner of the phone has deleted their web browsing history before you access their phone and view their history, then there is no way you can recover it.
Web browsers like Chrome, Safari, and Firefox offer different features to protect the privacy of their users. They also have that private browsing feature that lets a user browse whatever he wants in the incognito mode without getting tracked by others. The private browsing mode lets them keep their browsing hidden. If you check their history, you will not find anything because history isn’t being logged.
Another problem is that even if the user is not using a private browser, he could be deleting the history. In that case, it is best to use a monitoring app to keep tabs on someone’s browsing history.
You must be wondering why choose Xnspy? Aren’t there plenty of other monitoring apps available already that let you do the same? Yes, they are. As a matter of fact, there are a ton of monitoring apps available for customers to choose from, especially Android users are spoilt for spying app choices. So picking the right app for the job may not be so simple. Here are our top 6 selections to help you out.
