Retina-X Studios, a developer of spy software for the mobiles, has released Mobile Spy version 3.0, the new software for the Apple iPhone 3GS. It reportedly allows users to track GPS locations, SMS messages and calls of children or employees within an online control panel.

According to Retina-X, the new software runs in total stealth mode and no mentions of the programme are shown on the phone. The software runs in the background behind all other applications. After the software is installed on the phone, it records the entire text of all SMS text messages, information about each call and actual GPS positions.

The company added that immediately after activities are logged, they are uploaded to the user’s online account. Accounts can be checked online from any web browser without further access to the phone. Activity logs are viewable in real time, after they are recorded, including complete texts and maps of GPS positions.

James Johns, CEO of Retina-X Studios, said: The popular 3GS device can now be monitored with ease. With reports of over one million 3GS devices sold in the first three days of launch, this smartphone is popular. Some users have a need to monitor activities of their child or employees. This is only possible with Mobile Spy.

The company noted that the new software runs on all iPhone models and smartphones, using the Windows Mobile or Symbian OS operating system. This includes Windows Mobile 2003, 2003 SE, 5.0 and 6.0 and Symbian OS 9.x.
