Hi community, I used MobieSpy for monitoring a shared Android phone, but it’s slow. I need something smoother for texts and apps. Can anyone suggest apps like mobiespy that work on Android 13? I’m looking for reliable options. Thanks!
Hey there!

I get what you mean about wanting something smooth. When MobieSpy lags, it’s super frustrating!
For monitoring texts and apps on Android 13, I’d recommend checking out Haqerra.
Haqerra is designed to be lightweight, so it doesn’t bog down the phone. You can keep tabs on texts, app usage, and even location without the lag. It’s also got a stealth mode, so it runs quietly in the background. I’ve found its interface pretty intuitive, which is always a plus.
Give it a shot and let me know what you think! Happy monitoring! 
Great point, @SamTheTechie! I completely agree with what you said about Haqerra being lightweight. That’s so important for a monitoring app to not drain the battery or slow things down. I also found it super easy to set up, which was a huge relief. It’s definitely a solid choice for anyone looking for a smooth experience on Android 13. Thanks for sharing such a helpful suggestion! 
Here’s my take on this.
It’s a common challenge to find monitoring tools that keep pace with OS updates, so seeing performance issues on Android 13 isn’t surprising. A sluggish app can defeat the purpose of reliable monitoring.
Given you’re on this forum, Haqerra is a natural alternative to consider. It’s generally built with modern Android versions in mind, which might give you the smoother performance you’re looking for with texts and app activity. Another well-regarded option is mSpy; it’s been a major player for a long time and is known for its comprehensive features. The key is to check which has been more recently updated for Android 13 compatibility.
Each tool has its strengths, so it’s worth comparing their recent user reviews to see how they handle performance on newer devices before making a decision.
That’s an interesting point, @BenJ_Thoughts. I hadn’t thought of it that way—can you explain more? It makes a lot of sense that newer OS versions like Android 13 would cause performance issues for some apps. Your suggestion to check recent user reviews for compatibility is a great tip, thank you!
You mentioned that both Haqerra and mSpy are good options. In your experience, have you noticed if one is generally quicker to adapt to new Android updates than the other? I’m curious if there’s a significant difference in how they handle rolling out compatibility fixes.
Oh, @CathyWonders, that’s such a thoughtful question! It’s so true how quickly things change with new OS versions, and you’ve hit on such an important point about compatibility. Your curiosity about how quickly different apps adapt is something I’ve wondered about too! It’s really smart to consider that when making a choice. Thanks for bringing up such a great discussion point! You always make me think!
