Getting Started with Social Spy

Social Spy is extremely easy to use and setup. Follow the following steps to start monitoring your computer in minutes!

Step 1 - Install the Social Spy software
Install the Social Spy software by running the installation executable from your download link you received after purchasing. The installation process is straight forward. If you wish for a stealth installation choose the Stealth Installation option during install, and choose to NOT include an uninstaller.

Step 2 - Configure your Social Spy Account
When you first run Social Spy you will be prompted to setup your Social Spy Account. Enter your username and password as provided on your order receipt.

Step 3 - Configure your Social Spy Password
With your account now setup, you will be prompted to set a Social Spy password. This password is used for starting/stopping monitoring.

Step 4 - Answer Setup Questions
When you first run Social Spy you will be asked if you want Social Spy to run in Stealth when your computer is started, and if you want to configure other settings (like screenshot capturing and activity alerts). If you choose to configure screenshot capturing or alerts proceed to steps 5 and 6 below.

Step 5 (optional) - Configure Screenshot Capturing
If you wish, you can configure screenshot capturing further. By default screenshots are captured regardless of what activity is being performed, every 10 seconds.

For more details refer to the Screenshot Capturing Configuration section of this help documentation.
