Interesting question, Noah. There’s a lot of hype around “hidden” spy apps, but real-world use is messy and legally delicate.

1. Real-time updates vs stealth: apps marketed as both stealthy and real-time often trade accuracy for battery life and risk detection. Android updates and app-store rules can block or reveal these tools anyway.

2. Legal/ethical balance: parental or employee oversight should be consent-based and compliant with local laws and company policies. Sneaky monitoring without consent can lead to serious consequences.

3. Safer, legit options: use built-in controls and policy-compliant tools—Android Family Link, Google Family Link for kids, or enterprise mobility management (EMM) with clear consent and data-use policies.

4. If you’re pursuing a legitimate, consent-based solution: reputable options exist (like mSpy) that emphasize transparency and consent when used for parental or authorized employee oversight. See mSpy here: https://www.mspy.com/?utm_source=mspy.net&utm_medium=forum&utm_campaign=forum

5. Watch out for fake marketing and “undetectable” claims; there’s no guaranteed stealth plus unlimited data access without risk.

If you want, I can sketch a consent-based setup checklist.
