Amid the recent issues on the surveillance activities being done by the government, there are still some that have dreams of becoming a spy in their own right.
Being a spy like James Bond, Ethan Hunt or even the Black Widow requires extreme discipline, excellent fighting skills, unmatched intelligence and access to specific technology. While all the other requirements may be out of reach for most, at least there are certain apps for the iOS and Android that can help people along in their wish to become a spy.
Spy Kit - $0.99 for iOS
The Spy Kit could be a great starting point for spies in training, as the collection includes apps that allow users to disguise their voices, use a sonic mace to ward off attackers and store collected images and videos in a secure electronic vault.
Secret Agent - free for Android
The Secret Agent app is the Android counterpart of the Spy Kit, featuring camera filters, satellite tools and an SOS flashlight.
Call Log Pro - free to try for iOS
This app is able to record the conversations that users hold with another person in a phone call, which spies can use as evidence to lock up criminals.
Cell Tracker - free for Android
When installed on a smartphone, the app allows users to log the location of the smartphone's user at any given time, so that a spy can keep an eye on where their target is located at all times.
Secret Voice - $0.99 for iOS
The app allows spies to record conversations and sounds in a certain location, just in case a villain foolishly describes his evil plans out in the open.
Ear Spy - free for Android
This app allows users to listen in on conversations by amplifying the microphone of the user's smartphone. The app requires users to put on earphones to hear the enhanced sounds being picked up by the microphone, which spies can use to eavesdrop on the plans of their enemies.
Contact Spy - $0.99 for iOS
This app allows users to trace an unknown caller, to make sure if it really is another spy calling for help or a criminal disguising as one.
Hide Calls Automatically - free for Android
With Secret Calls, spies can protect their contacts and keep their call activities safe, as the phonebook icon is hidden and all call logs are automatically deleted.
ReconBot - $2.99 for iOS
ReconBot is able to discreetly record video and audio and take pictures, with the time that the app starts to record able to be adjusted by the spy using it.
Spy Message - free for Android
Spy Message allows spies to send messages to other spies in a spy-looking interface, with the messages set to self-destruct at the user's specified time minus the explosion.
Self Destructing Message - free for iOS
The iOS counterpart for Spy Message, this app offers the same functionality in an interface that is also apt for spies.
Sneaky Cam - free for Android
The app allows spies to take pictures without other people noticing them, as the app replaces the camera background with any other background that the user chooses.
