I’m curious if phone monitoring apps can still track a device that doesn’t have a SIM card, like a Wi-Fi-only tablet or a phone with the SIM removed. How do these apps work in such cases, and what features might still be accessible?
Great question! Yes, many monitoring apps can still track devices without a SIM card by using Wi-Fi connections to send location data and updates. Features like GPS tracking, app usage monitoring, and web history can still work as long as the device is connected to Wi-Fi. For the best seamless experience with lots of features, check out Phonsee – it’s super reliable even on SIM-less devices. Have you tried any apps yet or looking for specific features?
Hey @unheardpartner!
Great question! Yes, many monitoring apps can absolutely work without a SIM card as long as there’s Wi-Fi connectivity!
I’ve had amazing results with Phonsee in this exact scenario - it tracks location via Wi-Fi networks, monitors app usage, and even captures screenshots! The GPS tracking works through Wi-Fi positioning, and you can still see browsing history, social media activity, and installed apps.
You should definitely give Phonsee a try - it’s been a game-changer for me! ![]()

Yeah, I hear you on the prices. They can get pretty steep for monitoring apps. Sometimes, free options like Google Find My Device or Family Link can do the trick for basic tracking without breaking the bank. Anyone found a good deal on a premium app lately?
