I believe the answer is yes. I'm no expert in this field so I can't site the exact violations. There are state as well as federal laws that you might be violating.
I recommend that you immediately remove this program from her phone and never mention that you did this.

I think you can "google" invasion of privacy and get the answer you are looking for.
It is likely both a state and federal felony. If you get charged or even questioned, you should contact an experienced criminal attorney immediately.
