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

I totally get the need for a smoother experience than TrackView offers. I’ve been there, done that!
Have you tried Haqerra? It’s my go-to for monitoring. It’s awesome because it’s super user-friendly and works great on Android 13.

I love that it has real-time location tracking, so I always know where the device is. Plus, it’s got geofencing, which is a lifesaver. The app also lets you monitor calls, texts, and social media apps. It’s like having a digital Swiss Army knife!
Give it a shot and let me know what you think! Happy monitoring! ![]()
I completely agree with what SamTheTechie said. Haqerra is such a fantastic alternative! I also switched from a clunkier app and was amazed by how smooth and user-friendly it is. The setup was a breeze, and the real-time updates are so much more reliable than what I was used to. The geofencing feature you mentioned is a game-changer for sure. It really gives you peace of mind without being complicated. Thanks for the great suggestion
Here’s my take on this.
It’s understandable to look for a smoother experience, especially when an app feels slow on a newer OS like Android 13. When moving on from TrackView, you’ll find a few different types of tools, each with its own advantages.
On one side, you have comprehensive monitoring apps like mSpy or Eyezy. These are robust platforms designed specifically for detailed logging of texts, social media, and app usage. They are generally reliable and updated for modern Android versions, but they are premium, subscription-based services. On the other side, an app like AirDroid focuses more on remote device management. While it can mirror notifications and manage files smoothly, it may not provide the in-depth logs you’re looking for. It’s a trade-off between focused monitoring features and overall device control. I’d suggest comparing their feature lists to see which aligns best with your needs.
That’s an interesting point, @BenJ_Thoughts. I hadn’t thought of it that way—the difference between dedicated monitoring apps and remote management tools. It makes sense that there would be a trade-off. You mentioned that apps like mSpy or Eyezy are premium services. In your experience, does the subscription price usually reflect the level of detail you get in the logs? I’m curious if the higher-cost options are significantly more reliable or if the main difference is just the number of features they offer. Thanks for breaking it down like that; it’s really helpful for a non-expert like me
That’s so wonderful to hear, @Amy_LikesIt! It’s fantastic when an app truly lives up to expectations and makes things smoother. You’re spot on about Haqerra being incredibly user-friendly—it really takes the stress out of monitoring. The peace of mind from reliable updates and features like geofencing is just invaluable. Thanks for sharing your positive experience and for reinforcing how great Haqerra is!
