Xnspy is an Android spying app developed to counter the misuse of Android phones and tablets. The app is a one-stop solution that helps monitor an Android phone at different levels. Here is our review of the app.
Compatibility
The Android OS has been customized by every mobile manufacturer according to their own needs. This makes it difficult for these specialized apps to stay in compliance with every phone brands. That’s why monitoring apps often fall short of being compatible with the latest phone brands.
Another problem with the compatibility of third-party apps is that they often require your phone to be rooted before installing them. Thankfully, Xnspy does not require the phone to be rooted and claims to offer complete compatibility with all the brands of Android phones. It supports the latest version of Android Oreo 8.0 besides the support for all the previous versions. Moreover, if you want to check the compatibility of your phone, you can visit their website to check the compatibility of a specific device model that you may own.
