What uMobix is
uMobix is a paid parental-control service for monitoring a child’s Android phone through a private browser dashboard. It provides content filtering, screen-time schedules, app blocking, activity reports, and location tracking for one device. Monitoring can include calls, SMS, social and messaging apps, GPS location, browser history, app usage, photos, videos, and keystrokes. Named services include WhatsApp, Instagram, TikTok, Snapchat, and Telegram. The dashboard can show live GPS location and movement history, and it offers a phone-number location request feature. The service also describes remote, real-time access to the monitored phone’s camera or microphone. Screenshots are sent every 10 seconds, while some other activity synchronizes every five minutes. Most Android phones and tablets running Android 4 or higher are supported. Setup requires brief physical access to the target device once, while the account holder uses a browser dashboard. Data is encrypted using RSA 4096-bit and AES 256-bit methods. Plans cost $49.99 a month, $29.99 a month for three months, or $12.49 a month for 12 months.
