hi and thank you for responding. i am using security cloud on my pc. i do not have it currently on my android because i’ve tried all of the different brands, once they didn’t work i just uninstalled them. i have 3 phones and i think all have whatever it is that he is putting on them. all the typical symptoms, phone hot, battery dying, mobile data being eaten up. on top of alot of personal things such as behavior of the person, things they say, how they know this and that and locations on my google maps that are very odd. also google sent me an email the day i think it was installed on one of my phones and it was a strange email. they locked my account, something i had no idea that that existed them doing so, and said that something i was trying to do was against their policies and didn’t explain anything and they wont either even after trying to contact them. i think a week later i attempted to log onto it and they let me on with a some sort of “congrats you got your account back” that day i got the email the person suspected came in and told me someone was calling me and then left the room after saying that. both times i looked at my phone and nobody was calling. so that’s to sum up why i think that there is stalkerware on my phone. one of them. 2nd phone there was an odd location google maps said i was and i clearly was nowhere near there and it just so happens this same person frequents that street. i’ve changed all my passwords on every google account and it just keeps happening so it’s not that they possibly only have my google account password. they are in my phones somehow. android version 9 PPBS29.73-81-2 8.1.0 N5002L-TC-OG0-MV01601-07 Cant find the 3rd phone at the moment. remedies tried are resetting the phone. changed all passwords on everything.installed a number of virus and sypware and adware detectors and none found anything. these are all just free apps though which i believe dont do much of anything. back up. i never really understood this. i have the setting on yes to back up everything but i dont know how or when or where to go if i needed it.
