This is why using an effective monitoring app like mSpy is necessary. So, if you’re planning to use it for your kid’s iPhone, this write-up has covered everything you need to know, from mSpy login to the installation procedure. 

Quick Answer: To install mSpy on an iPhone, you can try two methods. One of them is collecting the information through iCloud and the other one is using Wi-Fi sync.

mSpy is a monitoring app that can be used to keep an eye on your loved ones. The app supports both Android and iOS devices, and that too without jailbreaking. It can be considered when you’re concerned about your kid’s online activities and want to monitor their actions (in this case, their iPhone). 

With the help of mSpy iPhone login, you can monitor:

  • Incoming, outgoing, and missed calls. 
  • Messaging and social media apps that include WhatsApp, Facebook, Snapchat, and Instagram.
  • Sent and received emails.
  • Real-time location of the device.
  • Keystrokes made on the device.
  • Websites visited.
  • Device storage.

How to Install mSpy on a Non-Jailbroken iPhone?

The best thing about using mSpy is that you don’t have to jailbreak any device to monitor it. So, the app offers two methods to install mSpy on iPhones: iCloud sync and Wi-Fi Sync. 

However, before proceeding to the methods, you must buy a subscription first by following these steps:

  • Open mSpy.com and create an account.
  • After creating an account, sign in to the platform using your email ID and password
    Sign in to mSpy
  • Now, choose the language and click CONFIRM.
    Click CONFIRM
  • Choose the device; in this case, I’ll go with “Apple, iOS.”

Then, you get the option to select the most suitable way to proceed. Follow through the next section to understand the methods available.

Method 1: Using iCloud Sync

The iCloud Sync method allows you to install mSpy on an iPhone. However, this process will require you to ask for iCloud credentials and physical access to the device of your loved one. Once done, follow the steps given below:

  • Click Know iCloud credentials from the option “Select the most suitable way of connecting.”
    Click Know iCloud credentials
  • Now, you’ll have to connect the iCloud account. Click NEXT.
    Click NEXT
  • Enter the credentials required, and click SEND CODE to link the iCloud account.
    Click SEND CODE
  • Now, enter the received code on the mSpy account, and click CONNECT.
    Click CONNECT

That’s it, mSpy will start collecting the information from iCloud. The process might take 10-20 minutes (also depending on the amount of data), and then, you can access:

  • Contacts
  • Notes
  • Calendar events
  • Photos
  • Emails (if synced with iCloud)
  • Files
  • Reminders
  • Tasks

Method 2: Using Wi-Fi Sync

Wi-Fi Sync is another option that helps you install mSpy on your kid’s iPhone. For this method, you’ll require physical access to the targeted device. Follow these steps:

  • After buying the subscription, you’ll get an additional Wi-Fi sync app. Install this app on your PC or Mac to begin the process.
  • Now, take the USB cable and connect the target device to your Mac or PC.
  • Open the mSpy interface, go to Backup Manager, and let the app create a backup of all data on the targeted phone. After completion, this data will be available in your mSpy account.
