iPhone GPS location and location services have long been used on iOS devices. The iPhone uses the built-in GPS chip in conjunction with mobile repeater cells, Wi-Fi networks, and even Bluetooth to achieve all location functions and get as accurate a position as possible.
Checking GPS on iPhone is simple and allows you to determine which apps have access to location. In fact, when starting a new application, permission is requested to be able to exploit location information and it is always possible to control it from the settings.
The most complex (at least up to now) is to change the GPS location of the iPhone to our liking.
We will see in this article how to fake the GPS position of the mobile terminal (or tablet) to fool all those games and programs that use the location.
AnyGo is the solution to change location and GPS location on iPhone quickly and easily.
Here are some possible scenarios where it might be useful to do this:
- Pokemon Go: you can be anywhere on the planet and have a stable path if you stay exactly where you are by tricking the iPhone GPS
- Facebook, WhatsApp, Instagram, Telegram- You can trick your friends and pretend you are in a different place
- Tinder, Grinder and other dating apps- You can pretend to be somewhere else entirely, to maintain privacy and avoid sharing your real location
- Life360, FindMy and navigation app: Imagine that you are always in one place while you are on the go.
- Access videos and music which are not normally accessible by changing country or country
The limits are marked only by our imagination. We're not going to talk about the moral implications of using a method that changes GPS coordinates and actually fools systems and people; As usual, we provide you with all of this information for informational purposes only. Many of us have absolute confidence in the position shared by our friends and it is important to know that the position itself could have been manipulated in an extremely simple way.
Fake iPhone GPS location with AnyGo
AnyGo is a paid software for Windows and Mac and is available in a trial version that we have tested for you.
The features of iToolab AnyGo are:
- Change iPhone GPS location via computer. You must connect your mobile terminal or tablet using a cable USB to your PC or Mac.
- Works on the latest versions of iOS 14.4 and in the last iPhone 12 no jailbreak and no modifications to devices.
- It allows you to manage multiple devices at the same time (if you have multiple iPhones, iPods, or iPads).
- It allows you to consult the history of the positions and routes that you have made with that device, using the software.
To change the geographic location
1. First, we install the program AnyGo, downloading it from its official site. We can also choose Spanish during the installation phase.
2. We connect the iPhone with the USB cable. If it is the first connection to the computer, we choose “Allow” on the mobile. We start the AnyGo software. In our case, we disconnected and reconnected the mobile terminal to the computer so that it is recognized for the first time and to be able to modify the GPS of the iPhone. In seconds, everything is ready to change the location of the mobile terminal.
3. With the map in front, we click anywhere to change the position of the iPhone with the mouse. We can use the classic zoom in-out controls to decide the position. We confirm by clicking on “go”.
4. We check whether the position of the mobile terminal has really changed; we open Telegram and share the location.
We will see from the mobile that the position is exactly the one configured in the previous point! We can do the same by directly writing a street and a country. In seconds, the GPS has been modified and we are in Cupertino, California:
We can also do much more with the GPS of the iPhone, as we will see in the following paragraphs.
Set up a simulated route with multiple steps
We can also establish a path between two or more points, choose the travel speed and start simulating the route; This feature is useful when you are sharing your location with someone and they are continuously monitoring you.
Let's first set the starting position as we did in the previous paragraph. Then we click on the two point or multipoint mode. Also in this case it is very simple with a few clicks to enter the path to follow.
We also have a slider to change the speed. and simulate the fact that we move on foot or by car. The ability to move with WASD controls or using joystick control is interesting. In this case, defining a dummy route is more cumbersome but still possible. For more information on this latest “fake” browsing mode, please refer to the Official AnyGo Manual.
Advanced function: import GPX files
More advanced functionality is just a click away in the GPX menu: it allows you to load a preset route, present it in a file in GPX format, and spoof iPhone GPS.
GPX files contain information about GPS navigation routes. They can be created with specific programs or with wrist GPS devices or navigators.
In this case, having a GPX file with a route available, we can upload it to AnyGo and pretend to travel the road, far away (even back and forth).
It is possible, for example, pretend to have made a round trip on a bicycle, without having to move house or be in a completely different place.
Conclusions of changing iPhone GPS
To change your location GPS, AnyGo works perfectly and does exactly what it sets out to do (and even more). Its operation is simple and available to everyone; all you need is a computer and a bit of imagination.
As mentioned, the program is available as a trial and can be purchased with a monthly, quarterly, yearly or lifetime license at a reasonable price: start with $ 9,99 up to $59,99. It is also possible to remove the license from one PC and use it on another (if you decide to switch PCs/Macs).
Please note that the described method is effective for changing position when using iPhone GPS. If the IP address is used to locate the device, the method that is still valid is to change location through VPN.
