2. Download & Installation
Once you have XNSPY license with you, it’s time to download the application on the target person’s device. Note that you will require one-time access of the device to manually download and install xnspy on it.
- To download the app, you can check your email for the instructions. Plus, you will get a download URL, activate code (to pair the device to your xnspy account) and credentials to your online account from where you access the monitored text messages.

- Once the setup is complete, xnspy will go into stealth mode. There won’t be any shortcuts or background activity shown on the target device. This ensures for intrusion-free monitoring of a user.
What’s Next?
Once the app is installed and the device is connected to the internet, xnspy will start uploading data from the monitored device to the online control panel. For new data to upload on the online Dashboard of XNSPY, it can take anywhere between a few minutes to a few hours. However, in the case of text messages, the new chats are uploaded as soon as they occur (because of their relatively smaller size).
Accessing The Messages
After downloading xnspy on a phone, you may want to wait for a little because it can usually take around 24-48 hours for the first upload.
- To access the monitored messages, login into your XNSPY account which you can do visiting www.cp.xnspy.com from your computer or phone’s browser.
- Sign into your XNSPY account by providing the credentials emailed to you.
- On the Dashboard, look for the “Phone Log” tab and click on it.
- From the drop-down menu, click on “Text Messages” and you will be taken to another screen with all the text messages from the monitored device.
P.S. You can download XNSPY Dashboard app for Android to access monitored messages from anywhere without the need of an internet browser.
