Keylogger For Android — Introducing A Brand New FlexiSPY Feature

FlexiSPY is proud to announce the release of our brand-new feature – Keylogger for Android – a unique function that captures every keystroke entered on a target device, regardless if a user hits send or not.

What is Keylogger for Android?

Our Keylogger for Android is a free feature available to PREMIUM and EXTREME customers. It records everything that is typed in any of the supported applications, including messages, search terms, and even deleted text. This tool has benefits for all FlexiSPY customers including parents, employers and even those using the software for personal use, as it helps in providing a complete snapshot of how an app is being utilized – and anyone who is responsible for employees or children knows the importance of understanding how and why apps are used.

How does Keylogger for Android work?

When a letter, word or character is typed into a supported application, such as Facebook, WhatsApp or LINE, the Keylogger for Android picks up the keystrokes and adds them to a secure log file in your online portal.

To view the recorded information, simply log in to your portal and click the Key Logs button. From here you can select your desired application from the list of supported programs and read what has been typed in the secure file log.

If you are looking for a specific keyword within the Keylogger for Android, our search function lets you quickly filter through the stored data to find the information that is relevant to you.

Why is Keylogger for Android useful?

The Keylogger for Android has a number of important uses for employers and parents, as well as yourself:

Employers can use the Keylogger for Android to monitor employee activity to ensure the protection of intellectual property and to prevent internal theft.

Parents, on the other hand, will find peace knowing their children are exercising responsible judgement online and can step in at the first sign of risky behavior or inappropriate contact with strangers.

When it comes to personal use, Keylogger for Android provides an extra backup for those times when you misplace an important piece of information or need to confirm the exact terms you agreed upon with your building contractor before the project began.

As mentioned, a major benefit of Keylogger for Android is that it also records deleted text, so when we say it records every keystroke, conversation or search term in every supported application, we mean every single one.

    so i just tested out the keylogger on my phone. It recorded characters in general without problems, but when i logged into an account that was password protected, it recorded the username fine but then proceeded with recording dots which i assume is the password. Is this normal for this function to distinguish and hide passwords that are typed?

      Yes, the the situation you described is normal function for the key logger. The feature is designed to capture each keystroke visible on the device’s screen. This means when a password is typed and appears as *****, the key logger records what is visible to the user on the screen. Theoretically, if the user were to select the ‘Show Password’ option, the software would be able to record the characters that are typed if they are visible on the screen for a long enough period of time.

      Our FlexiSPY for PC and Mac, however will record passwords as they are typed even if the screen is showing ******. For more information on this product, you can check out our website at: https://www.flexispy.com/en/computer-monitoring-software.htm

        I see, so the android version just captures a “screenshot” of what is typed instead of recording the actual key input as they are pressed?

          Thanks for following up, perhaps the previous explanation was unclear. The Keylogger does indeed record every keystroke in the supported programs on the target device. This is the reason you are able to search for specific text and keywords within the Key Logs section of the portal. However, the keylogger does not support passwords as Android does not broadcast the keystrokes when you put the cursor on the password input and thus the **** is recorded.

          We have noted this technical error in the blog post and appreciate you also bringing it to our attention. We do apologize for any confusion and have already submitted the amendment to our content team.

    As well as serving the interests of law enforcement agents, keyloggers can help employers maintain productivity, protect valuable bandwidth and ensure optimum use of networked resources by monitoring employee activity online. Parents can even use them to check their children’s computer activities.
