The term keylogger might be new to some people but it’s something that every parent, employee, or lover would like to have.
A keylogger is a software that when installed on the target cell phone or computer, extracts all the keystrokes that your kids make on various apps. These keystrokes are then presented before you to check.
But how is keylogger accessible? It’s not an app that you can easily grab from the Play Store. You need something more advanced that works in the hidden mode.
Here we are to help you out and let you know how to install and use a keylogger, that comes inside one of the best spy app, pcTattletale.
Uses Of A Keylogger
Parents
If you are a parent of a teen, you very well know how easy it is for them to access the adult content available on the internet. And it’s nearly impossible to know what all they are searching for on the internet.
But if there’s a keylogger installed on their phone/PC, it’s easy to know what they are searching for.
A keylogger will also play an important role in revealing the type of language that the teen use while chatting with someone.
Employees
If you own a business, you are aware, how dangerous it can be for your business if your competitor gets to know about your future plans and ideas.
So it becomes necessary to know if your employees are sharing the crucial information of the company with others.

But you can stop your lover from building their new relationship at an early stage if you have a keylogger by your side.
