Not long ago, I stumbled upon a post on Reddit that piqued my curiosity. It read, \u201cI\u2019m looking for a way to spoof on iOS. Are there any available options?<\/em>\u201c<\/p>\n

As a Pok\u00e9mon Go enthusiast, the idea of exploring the game without physically moving intrigued me. So, I decided to do a little research. In this post, I\u2019d like to share my findings on how to simulate location in Pok\u00e9mon Go on an iPhone.<\/p>\n

Can You Fake Your Location in Pok\u00e9mon Go on an iPhone?<\/h4>\n

Short answer? Absolutely.<\/p>\n

After a bit of digging, I found a couple of ways to pull this off. You could go with an app that\u2019s made just for spoofing, or maybe a VPN app that lets you roam the game world without actually moving a muscle.<\/p>\n

Just a heads up though \u2013 if you\u2019re planning to do this, you should know that it comes with some risk.<\/p>\n

Will I Get Banned for Spoofing in Pok\u00e9mon Go?<\/h4>\n

Niantic has a strict no-spoofing policy. If they catch you, you\u2019re looking at either a temporary or a permanent ban. The game has robust security measures to spot any funny business with your location data.<\/p>\n

So, if you\u2019re curious about how it\u2019s done, by all means, read on. But if you\u2019re thinking of actually cheating in the game, remember, you\u2019re risking a ban. Just to be clear, I\u2019m sharing this info purely for educational purposes \u2013 I\u2019m not responsible for any actions you decide to take.<\/p>\n

Alright, let\u2019s get right into the techniques.<\/p>\n

Using the LocaChange Spoofing App<\/h4>\n

LocaChange<\/a> is a spoofing app tailor-made for Pok\u00e9mon Go players. It works smoothly on both Windows and Mac desktops. The app boasts a user-friendly interface and features that make spoofing locations a breeze. Here\u2019s a quick guide on how to use it:<\/p>\n

    \n
  1. Head to the LocaChange website and download the app.<\/li>\n
  2. Open LocaChange and click \u201cGet Started\u201d.<\/li>\n

    \"Changing\"Changing<\/span><\/span><\/figure>\n
  6. Start Pok\u00e9mon Go on your iPhone and enjoy playing from your new location.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

    Using a VPN<\/h4>\n

    If you\u2019re somewhat tech-savvy, consider using a VPN. A VPN essentially allows you to change your apparent location and hide where you\u2019re connecting from. There\u2019s a wide array of VPN apps available.<\/p>\n

    You can check out this post for the best VPN providers<\/a> previously reviewed on this site, or explore free VPN tools<\/a> here as well.<\/p>\n

    It\u2019s important to note that while a VPN can mask your IP location, it does not change your GPS coordinates. This means if an app uses GPS to determine your location, a VPN won\u2019t help in spoofing that. Additionally, the VPN server you connect to can affect your internet speed.<\/p>\n

    Concerns You Should Have About Spoofing<\/h4>\n

    Spoofing, which involves hiding your real location and faking another, is considered cheating in any game. Doing this could put your game account at risk of a temporary or permanent ban.<\/p>\n

    In the context of spoofing in Pok\u00e9mon Go<\/a>, if Niantic detects suspicious activity, you might face \u201csoft bans\u201d where you cannot interact with Pok\u00e9Stops, catch Pok\u00e9mon, or participate in raids for a certain period.<\/p>\n

    Can Niantic Detect Spoofing?<\/h5>\n

    Niantic uses various methods to detect spoofing. They monitor GPS data for inconsistencies like impossible travel speeds or abrupt location changes. They also check IP addresses and can tell if you\u2019re using a VPN.<\/p>\n

    Can You Get Banned for Using a VPN on Pok\u00e9mon Go?<\/strong><\/p>\n

    Simply using a VPN isn\u2019t typically grounds for a ban. However, using a VPN along with GPS spoofing may lead Niantic to detect the unusual combination of IP address and GPS location. This can result in increased scrutiny and potential bans.<\/p>\n
