What to have ready

  • No Mac version

iPhone

  • iOS17.4or laterWorks
  • iOS17.0–17.3Update first

    These versions can’t connect on Windows. Update to iOS 17.4 or later and it works.

  • iOS12–16Works

Android

  • Android12or laterWorks
  • Android11or earlierWon’t work
  • Use a cable that carries data. With a charge-only cable, the computer can’t see the phone.

Just three steps

  1. 01

    Connect phone

    Connect the phone with a cable and follow the app. For example, tap “Trust” on an iPhone, or turn on “USB debugging” on Android.

  2. 02

    Choose a place

    Search for a place, paste coordinates or a map link, or click the map. To move along a route, switch to “Route” and click a few points.

  3. 03

    Apply location

    Press “Change location”. When “Simulating” shows up, you’re set. For a route, press “Start moving”.

Restore your real location

  1. Press “Restore real location”

    Your phone goes back to where it really is.

  2. Close the app

    If the phone is still connected, it restores your real location before it quits.

  3. Set “Auto-restore”

    Pick 15 minutes to 2 hours. It restores on its own when time’s up, as long as the app stays open and the phone stays connected.

After you unplug the cable

  • iPhone (iOS 17.4 or later)
    Simulation stops, and the phone usually returns to its real location within a few minutes. Keep the cable in and the app open while you use it.

  • iPhone (iOS 12–16) and Android
    The phone stays at the simulated location. Plug it back in and press “Restore real location”, or restart the phone.

  • Not sure it’s back? Check a maps app on the phone. Still simulated? Restart the phone.
  • Rarely use the app? Turn off “USB debugging” on Android. Some banking apps won’t work with it on. Turn it back on next time.

Things to know

  1. Other apps can tell this is a simulated location. Some refuse to work, and some may ban your account.
  2. Using it to cheat in games, fake check-ins or attendance, or scam people may break terms of service or the law.
  3. While simulating, “Find My”, family location sharing and emergency services may also see the simulated location. If you need help, restore your real location first.
  4. You use it at your own risk.

Common questions

Phone plugged in, but the app doesn’t see it?
  • Try a cable that carries data, or another USB port
  • Unlock the phone and stay on the Home Screen. On iPhone, tap “Trust” when “Trust This Computer?” appears
  • Android: make sure “USB debugging” is on, then set the USB option in the notification shade to “File transfer”
Blocked by “Smart App Control”?

This PC has Windows “Smart App Control” on. It blocks new programs that aren’t digitally signed yet, and this installer is one of them. Install it on a different computer.

Location changed, but the map on the phone didn’t move?

First, make sure location is on:

  • iPhone: Settings › Privacy & Security › Location Services (on iOS 15 and earlier: Settings › Privacy › Location Services)
  • Android: Settings › Location

Google Maps on Android keeps jumping back? Go to Settings › Location › Location services, turn off “Google Location Accuracy”, and on the same screen turn off “Wi-Fi scanning” and “Bluetooth scanning”.
