outgoing sms from target phone not cc to friend phone

Avast Mobile Apps Avast Anti-Theft for Android

I installed anti theft on my phone and in testing the cc sms feature, the only sms’ that are being cc’d is the incoming texts, none of the sent messages that are being sent from the target phone are being received to the remote or friend phone. Can anyone help?

Hello,

that’s how the team decided the command should work:

from our manual:

Call/SMS Forwarding
Avast! Anti-Theft enables calls and/or SMSes to be forwarded or copied to another device
by sending a simple SMS command.

Calls: whenever an incoming call arrives, SMS information about the incoming call will be
sent to the remote control phone - calls will NOT be diverted!

SMSes: whenever an incoming SMS arrives, it can either be forwarded and deleted (will not
arrive on the original phone) or if “CC” is set, the SMS will be forwarded and also delivered on
the original phone.

for further informations please consult our manual available at:
http://files.avast.com/files/documentation/mobile-security-user-guide-en.pdf
it will help you understand the basics of the software.
give it a try - it’s short and easy to understand!

Thank you for your reply. I did read your user manual and it states that you can text the target phone your pin plus “get 10 sent sms” but what my question is referring to is that if my phone is to get stolen is there a way to automatically see the sent sms messages like the i receive all the inbox sms messages. It does not make sense to me that the remote phone would only receive inbox sms messages. the remote phone is only receiving inbox sms messages and not sent messages. So, with no disrespect how would it be beneficial to only receive cc’d inbox sms messages from the target phone if my target (or lost) phone was stolen? Is there a way to receive both cc’d sent AND inbox sms messages at the same time instead of having to command “get 10 sent sms”?

Not at this point in time.
