There is an app for that and apparently some abusive boyfriends, girlfriends and spouses are using it to track the whereabouts of their victims. This is a big concern at domestic abuse shelters when victims seek assistance. Technology expert Thor Schrock owns Schrock Innovations in Omaha and says there are legitimate uses for some of these apps that include monitoring a child’s cell phone. However, they can be used to stalk individuals.
Schrock says these are typically apps that are downloaded onto a person’s device without their knowledge.
After clearing your phone of unwanted apps you may also want to change your password or PIN so only you have access to that device.
