7 Signs Someone is Spying on Your Phone

Yes you read that right! It is possible someone can spy on your phone without you knowing. Here are 7 ways this can happen and what you need to do to prevent it.

THREAD!

1. The Battery

If the percentage of your phone's battery is consistently drained quickly, watch out, it might just be as a result of a spy app secretly installed on your phone.

2. Unknown Number

Watch out for those text/whatsapp messages you occasionally receive, they usually don't mean well

3. High Data Usage

Sometimes, the use of 10gb in 4 days might not be as a result of your Network Provider stealing from you, but some did using your data to spy on you.

4. Pop up Ads

This is by far a significant sign someone is spying on you especially if the pop up ad is persistent like the pop ups from those popular cheap phones. Make sure to avoid clicking those ads.

5. Sudden Shutdown

If your phone shutdown so abruptly while in use, take note; something malicious could be going on with your phone

6. Overheating Issues

The battery gives a lot more signs of unusual activities than other phone components. A battery overheating could mean your data is being downloaded to another device.

7. Phone Freeze

If your phone freezes often and is usually unresponsive, a spy app could be the culprit

WARNING!!!

If you believe someone is maliciously or illegally tracking your phone, contact the authorities or just get a much better and secured phone 😉
