IPhone Tracker App Can Help Businesses Manage Their Expenses Better

, ,

Most of the businesses have now embraced the BYOD (bring your own device) culture and the majority of them prefer to resort to iOS devices for their office because of its better encryption. Not that iPhones and iPads are extremely secure, the general perception is what drives the markets.
So if your business has provided iOS devices to its staff, there is great way that can help you save on the monitoring of employees. It’s called iPhone tracker app XNSPY that works secretly inside any iPhone, iPad or iPod to provide uninterrupted monitoring.

Few ways XNSPY can cut on your business expenses are:

1.    No need to install GPS devices in delivery trucks because you can track your drivers’ route by installing this app onto their smartphones. It’s very necessary for some business to track their deliveries so they reach the customers on time e.g. restaurants have to deliver food within a given time period. So if your employees’ continually fail on delivering food within the allotted time, check their location history with this GPS tracker.

2.   No need for over-the-head managers who monitor employees’ activities. With this iPhone tracker, entrepreneurs can view Phone logs like calls, SMS, emails, browsing history, contacts and even calendar entries from the target device. An employee’s smartphone activity can clearly tell what’s keeping them busy. You can also view chats, media and call logs from Facebook, WhatsApp, Viber, Line, Skype and iMessage.

3.  Startups can use this app as a substitute to the surveillance tools so to save on the costs.

Getting Started With XNSPY

It’s extremely easy to install and use this tracking app. Employers can choose between the Jailbreak and NoJailbreak edition according to their choice.

The Jailbreak version requires a physical access to the target device to install the app onto it. Features like GPS tracking, Facebook and Line tracking, Remote control (to lock the target device remotely) etc. are exclusive to the Jailbreak edition. It comes in basic and a premium subscription.

The NoJailbreak version is much easier to work on with as it only requires the Apple ID and password to access data from the target device. There is no installation required. The NoJailbreak version provides features similar to the basic Jailbreak edition of the app.

You can learn about the product features and pricing on XNSPY’s website.

It has became the primary medium to send and receive message. In addition to text messaging, users can send each other images, video, and audio media messages as well as their location using integrated mapping features.

  How to create fake whatsapp status
  how to create fake chats and edit old chats on whatsapp 
 
Before we start you will need three main things :
1. A rooted android device
2. An application that can be used to disable/freeze application ( Link2SD(free)/ Titanium Backup/ Other )
Learn to Disable And Enable App Using Link2SD
Learn to Disable And Enable App Using Titanium Backup
3. A file explorer with root access ( EsFile Explorer(free) / Root Explorer / Other )

Steps to create fake DP(Default Pic) for any whatsapp contact

Step 1: Open your Whatsapp, search the contact whose DP you want to change and note down his/her phone number with country code but without '+' sign. Also open up the Default pic of contact to create an entry in the sdcard.

Step 2: Take an image (should have extension .jpg) that you want to set as the DP for the contact and create two images one of size 640 X 640 pixels(you can choose any value but image should be square) and other of size 96 X 96 pixels, if you don't know how to crop and resize a image read this tutorial : How to crop and resize an image in Microsoft paint

Step 3: Now rename the image of size 640 X 640 by the phone number noted in step 1. Rename the second image of size 96 X 96 by [phone_number]@s.whatsapp.net.j [phone_number] represent the number noted down in the step one. While renaming the second image you have to change the extension of .jpg image to just .j

Step 4: Copy both the images into your phone. 

Step 5: Now disable/freeze Whatsapp from the system using Link2SD/Titanium Backup/ Other. Also turn off your mobile network/ wifi.

Step 6: First we need to change the thumbnail of the contact to do that first of all make sure your file explorer have root access. Now copy the image [phone_number]@s.whatsapp.net.j and paste it at /data/data/com.whatsapp/files/Avatars. If it ask permission to replace the old image click on Yes.
Now defrost the frozen Whatsapp using Link2SD/Titanium Backup/ Other to check that thumbnail of the contact is changed.

Note : Skip Step 7 if the contact does not have any DP because in that case we can only change the thumbnail and don't click on the thumbnail to enlarge the DP of the contact as this will result in removal of the thumbnail that you pasted  in Step 6.

Step 7: Locate Whatsapp folder( it could be in phone memory or sdcard) after that copy the image of size 640 X 640 and paste it to Whatsapp/Profile Pictures. If it ask permission to replace the old image click on Yes. This location store the images that appear when we click on the small thumbnail of the contact.

Step 8: Now defrost the frozen Whatsapp using Link2SD/Titanium Backup/ Other.

Avast! Mobile Security Review

, ,

Pros

Contains every security feature that you can wish for from virus scanner,anti-theft protection to firewalls. Tons of different features.

Cons

Takes some time to learn and setup the complete protection set of avast! antivirus.

avast_review

Avast! is a truly reliable and trust able name from PC antivirus and had come up with a very powerful and free app to protect your android device. Avast Mobile Security with free antivirus for Android secures against unwanted phishing, malware, spyware, and malicious viruses such as Trojans and even against loss or theft. It's has a large variety of tools for anti theft protection to mobile backup and from app locking to firewall and SMS and call filter.
With more than 100 Million downloads its among the most popular antiviruses and surely contains some of the most advance options.

ANTIVIRUS AND MALWARE PROTECTION

If we talk about the antivirus and malware protection according to www.av-test.org the testing of avast! during there January 2015 evaluation shows the following results.

Detection of a representative set of malicious apps discovered in the last 4 weeks is a whooping 100% while the industry average is 99.3%.

On the performance side
1.The app does not impact the battery life
2.The app does not slow down the device during normal usage
3.The app does not generate too much traffic

It also has 0 false warnings during installation and usage of legitimate apps from Google play also from third party websites.

It actually provides us the app shield, web shield as well as SMS shield.
avast_mobile_

Upon installation it will scan all your apps and your data if you wants, I found the scan quick enough. It also has the option of file shield which will scan the files whenever you read or execute to give you a complete protection.

It includes this in totality right now, app shield, application locking, file shield, firewall, message shield, network meter, pin protection, privacy advisor, SMS and call filter, updates, virus scan , web shield.

App shield scan app on installation and on execution, web shield check for phishing sites, check for malicious sites, sites correction(fix spelling errors when you type an address to the browser address bar), file shield scan files when reading or execution and  message shield scan incoming messages.

Actually the avast mobile security is too rich in the functionality and the functionality is broken down into many different apps. Like a saperate app for anti theft, one for backup and so on. So the actual functionality might leave you in frustration but if you are patient enough to learn it, then it has a lot to offer you.

Anti theft and SMS Control

Theft is one of the main concerns for our android device, and I personally like the Anti Theft feature of Avast!. You are needed to download it from the Play store separately. It has the functionality to locate and track your phone, control your cell phone remotely, remote wipe, remotely take photos and listen to the audio of the phone surroundings, SIM card change notifications, stealth mode automatically hides the app on phone whenever anti theft is activated
premium features has geofencing remote identification in which if the device leaves a defined area the device will be marked lost, triggering all associated protection behaviors.

If sim card is changed or device is marked as locked it will lock the phone which can also could be done remotely by sending a LOST command to the phone, sound siren, deny access to settings so that AntiTheft can't be uninstalled. If Anti Theft rooted version is installed some additional features like preventing usb debugging access,forcing data connection to stay alive and protection from hard reset are added.
avast_for_mobile


In the premium version you can take the picture of the person who incorrectly entered the Android locked-screen password more than 3 times.

Avast Anti Theft provides us with a wide range of SMS Commands some which are to lock and unlock the phone , to mark the phone as lost and found,to allow us to display a message on the phone after it has been locked which is also referred to as lock text, to activate or deactivate the siren, to locate the phone ,  to wipe the phone , activate and deactivate the data connection , you can also get the last 10 received SMS messages,contacts, call logs,reboot, app lock mode and much more.

App Locking

App locking is also provided as an part of the feature set of Avast! mobile security, you can lock your personal apps for security reasons, and if you are currently using app lock like some app then you can guess now you have a three layer security, first the default android locks and then the app lock and Avast!.

Mobile Backup

We know that with our android device our most important assets is our data. We can download Avast! Mobile Backup & Restore for our data back up. It backs up the contacts, music, video, family photos and other personal data on a secure cloud based server so you can relax about theft and accidental damage.
Contacts, SMS ,call logs and photos backup is available in the basic version but for the premium it also backs up your music, videos,and apps. It has a plenty of settings for whenever you want to back up.
Contacts and SMS call logs are backed up to your personal avast account.
Photos are backed up on Google drive due to data size, so you need Google account for mobile backup use.

There are some other small additional features also which could be worth mentioning

SMS and Call Filter

you can create groups and block SMS and calls or both and also outgoing calls you can also be  blocked depending upon the day of the week and can also block for a specific time.

Firewall.

This only works for rooted devices.

Network Meter

It shows you about how much data some app is using,it also includes low level system traffic which is not associated with the apps.

Privacy Advisor and App Manager: Personally I think these are just average with no specific additional functionality.

To conclude it, Avast! Mobile Security is a great app for your android security and we suggest it to everyone.

C Drive Showing Less Space Than Actual

By // 1 comment:
, , , , ,
For the past few days I was observing that my C drive's remaining space was reducing drastically even though I had uninstalled some large applications,emptied my Recycle Bin and also ran CCleaner software for clearing out temporary files, recent files,memory dumps etc. I also selected all the folders inside my C drive and saw their properties to calculate the amount space they were taking and it turned out that approximately 100GB was free in my C drive but in My Computers it was showing that there is less than 20 GBs of space remaining.

After some research I found that most of my space was eaten up by what is called shadow copies. These shadow copies contains System Restore Points and previous versions of files. So if you are like me who hasn't formatted his Windows even once since the purchase then most probably a lot of shadow copies must have been piled up. Now I am going to tell, how you can delete all but the most recent restore point and also manage the System Restore Disk Usage.

How to Delete all but the most recent Restore Point

Before following this procedure you can also check how many Restore Points(shadow copies) are actually there by opening System Restore Program and then select the check box saying Show more restore points.
restore_point

If you see many restore points which are dated 2-3 years back.Then you can follow the below given procedure to free up some space.
  1. Click on Start and type Disk Cleanup and then click on Disk Cleanup from Programs Section.
    disk_cleanup
  2. Choose C Drive and click on OK in the dialogue box that appeared.After click on OK it will calculate what all you can delete.
    drive_letter_selection
  3. Now click on Clean up System Files as shown below in the image.Then again the same dialogue box that appeared in step 2 will come and just like the previous step click on OK.
    Disk_cleanup
  4. Now go to the More Options Tab and choose Clean Up as shown below.
    disk_cleanup_2
  5. That's it and it may take some time.

How to manage System Restore disk Usage

  1. Open Computer and then click on System Properties
    system_properties
  2. Click on System Protection.
    system_protection
  3. A dialogue box will appear.In this box under Protection Settings Section select C Drive and then click on Configure as shown below.
    system_properties_configure
  4. Under Disk Space Usage section slide the bar according to you requirement like I had done as shown below.
