AppMia is by no means the industry leader in the SMS tracker marketplace. There are many competitors that do a better job and are priced more competitively. However, it deserves a mention because of the great functionality that it offers.
In this AppMia review you’ll learn the good, the bad and the ugly of this SMS tracking software that can be used as a hidden SMS tracker on both iOS and Android phones. Whether you’re a jittery parent trying to keep an eye on your kids, or an overly eager employer, you’ll learn about why this software may or may not be the right solution for you.

In this AppMia review you’ll learn the good, the bad and the ugly of this SMS tracking software that can be used as a hidden SMS tracker on both iOS and Android phones. Whether you’re a jittery parent trying to keep an eye on your kids, or an overly eager employer, you’ll learn about why this software may or may not be the right solution for you.
While Appmia’s SMS tracking features are not very advanced, the control panel is one of its core strengths. It gives the user access to all the features in an efficient way. Try for yourself to see if it is something that works for you.
Another highlight of SMS tracker app is the comprehensive array of features. You can track many things on the target phone, including text messages, e-mails, photos, videos, browsing history GPS locations and more. While you’re getting an all-in-one package with AppMia, it might not be worth the money when you consider its higher than average price point.
As with any software, AppMia has its limitations:
SMS tracking: Appmia’s phone tracker app has a good amount of limitations and is not a true hidden SMS tracker since the app icon remains visible once the software has been installed. Another disadvantage is that it cannot spy on text messages that have already been deleted from the phone.
What if you wanted to send a spoof SMS to one of the contacts on the target phone? Unfortunately for Appmia users, there is no SMS spoofing feature. Furthermore, it can only capture the text message data up to a certain number of characters which could leave out or cut off crucial information. Therefore, for capturing complete text messages it is not as useful as other software.
Lack of free trial: Unfortunately, there is no free trial option for AppMia, which means no test run before you buy. This might be disadvantageous to those that have never used a spy phone app before and would like to know what it is all about. Other SMS tracker apps offer free trials so AppMia is at a disadvantage here.
Cost: The prices of the different packages are higher than the average of similar products. If you are on a tight budget and require one of the cheaper options available, then AppMia might not be the ideal purchase. Also, you have to bear in mind that the best monitoring software features are in the most expensive package. So you’ll need to pay a premium price if you want full functionality of this SMS tracker app. If the cheaper package meets your requirements then great, but if not then you’ll need to pay the extra price.
There are plenty of monitoring software features that come with AppMia, which are worth knowing about before making the purchase:
Click on a feature name to learn more about what it does.
To begin using AppMia download of the app, which you can do with an internet connection. The app isn’t large in size so the download time won’t take more than a few minutes.
There is not cost to download the app, you’ll just need to purchase one of the 3 different packages to start using it. We will go over the pricing of the three packages later in this AppMia review. The app can be downloaded on both iOS and Android devices, however at this time there is no support for AppMia on other platforms.
Wondering how to go about the installation process of AppMia? After the download you’ll need to get in touch with a member of the customer support team. The contact details and working hours can be found on the AppMia website.
You’ll need to get a hold of the target phone and give them online access to the target mobile phone/PC and then you can begin monitoring activities on the target cell phone. The installation process will not take long, and since the customer service is professional, they can even tell you how to make use of the software to your advantage.
Once the installation process has been completed you can begin your monitoring activities. AppMia is packed full of SMS tracking features. Take the time to learn each of the features,especially if you are using cell phone tracking software for the very first time.
The features of AppMia that are most important to you will depend on the requirements you have. However, there are enough options to have something for everyone.
The quality of the customer support at AppMia is great, after all you’ll need to get in touch with them to setup SMS tracking on the target phone. Support can be accessed via Skype, e-mail or phone 24/7. It’s great that the customer support team can be reached via a variety of the different forms of communication. This means you could have trouble with the app in the middle of the night and they will be on stand-by to be of assistance.
Before you buy AppMia you should make sure that the mobile device you plan on using is actually compatible with the AppMia. In the event that this SMS tracker app isn’t compatible after purchase you can always make use of the 10-day money back guarantee for a refund.
Unfortunately, AppMia is only available on the iOS and Android platforms. So if you have any other devices such as a Blackberry then you’re out of luck. This is one of the drawbacks of AppMia.
iOS: AppMia is compatible with all iOS devices up to iOS 9.0 X, so go to the app store and look for the app using the search bar. Both the download and installation process will not take long. You can view the data of the target phone on a cell phone, tablet or desktop computer.
When using iOS devices there will not be a requirement to have physical access to the target phone. This allows for the utmost secrecy whilst using the mobile spy software.
Android: Do you have an Android device and would like to take advantage of AppMia? You’re in luck, because AppMia supports Android devices up to 5.1.1 Lollipop, and the installation process is very simple. The process of downloading and installing the surveillance software on the Android platform is essentially no different than on the iOS platform. If you have already done so on an iOS device then you’ll know what you need to do here.
Before you look at other spy software you should look at the different packages they offer first. Here are the four SpyEra offers:
The cost is $29.99 for 1 month, $75.99 for 6 months and $99.99 for 12 months. You only get half of the features that AppMia has to offer when compared to the other packages. However, if those features are within your requirements then perhaps the discounted version is for you.
The cost is $64.99 for 1 month, $199.99 for 3 months, $169.99 for 6 months and $194.99 for 12 months. The premium package comes with all of the surveillance software features enabled, so you’re not missing out on anything. But the price is double the basic package. You’ll need to ask yourself if the extra features are worth the higher price.
The cost for 1 device is $599.99 and for 2 devices it’s $699.99. As the name suggests this package gives you lifetime access to AppMia, which might be great for those of you who know you’ll be using the app for a very long time. The cost is high, but it is going to be cheaper over a long period of time than the other packages. Also you’ll get all of the features that AppMia has to offer with this package. Perhaps, it is a good idea to give AppMia a test run with one of the monthly packages, before committing to the lifetime package.
Our AppMia review concludes this software is above average when compared to the other top phone tracker apps out there. It comes packed with a lot of features, but at a price point that allows you to question if it is really worth it. It would also be great to see them expand their SMS tracking capabilities which are far below other software on the market. Perhaps after using this app you’ll feel that the quality is too good to be put off by the higher price point, or perhaps you’ll feel as if the price is too high when cheaper and better-quality SMS tracker apps are available elsewhere. This is a question that can only be answered by the budget you have and your personal tracking needs.
