Cell phone spying involves two parts or two pieces of a puzzle. The first part is the actual spying software program itself. This part of the cell phone spy gets installed to the mobile device you want to spy on.

The second piece of the puzzle is a web server. A web server is really nothing more than a website. Both of these pieces of the mobile spying puzzle work together to enable you to spy on someone's cell phone spy software. When the phone you are spying on does something that is spy worthy, such as making or receiving a call, sending or receiving a text message etc., the software part of the phone spy makes a copy of this information and sends it to the web server part. The purpose of the web server part is so you have somewhere to go to view details of the phone you are spying on.

The software part of the phone spy that is on the target phone is actually very simple from a programmers point of view. The language that is used to program and create applications for cell phones is event driven. What this means is when an event occurs software code gets executed that does something. The following are some of the real names of real cell phone events.
