Hey guys,

how to properly change the GPS location on an iPhone?

I tried 3utools, but for some reason after a few minutes my fake location get changed to my real one.

I would like to change the Location of my iPhone to use Tinder, Bumble etc. on it without paying for the Gold memberships
 
This is done in the phone settings
 
You typically need to use GPS-spoofing software to change your current location on an iphone
 
Have you given iTools or AnyGo a try? Sometimes the fake location resets because of iOS updates or settings. Another option from has already been mentioned above is jailbreaking your phone, but that has risks.
 
AnyGo works fine! Just you can't cancel monthly fees, so better buy the one-time lifetime offer. It works via setting your iPhone to developer mode.

I'd be curious if there is an iphone app developer here, that can tell us if an app can know if the iPhone is in developer mode?
(Apps could then possibly shadowban you just for being in "developer mode")
 
The combination of the enabled developer mode and the location can be detected by app owners:

https://stackoverflow.com/a/74592086
"Apple provides sourceInformation on each CLLocation object returned. Checking the isSimulatedBySoftware parameter will give a boolean response."


OMG. So any app can just do: "if (location.isSimulatedBySoftware()) then START_SHADOWBAN()"

---

If you jailbreak the iPhone and use the "fake gps" app, can that be detected too? Or can apps in general detect jailbreaking?

Do any undetectable ways exist of changing iPhone GPS location?
 
Now you made me curious
- How can an app detect jailbreak?

e. g. by scanning the filesystem: for known filenames, if you could write at certain directories etc.

If you can't scan and/or don't find certain files and/or can't write, then the iOS device has no jailbreak.

TikTok is known for scanning a lot of stuff at the filesystem.

Wow thanks, this is clear info!

Can I conclude this?
1) You can only spoof GPS on iPhone via jailbreak or via developer mode (if you don't tweak the apps themselves).
2) Fake GPS via developer mode can be detected by any app as "100% fake location" (as long as their coders bothered to check location.isSimulatedBySoftware() )
3) Fake GPS via jailbreak can be detected by any app as "100% jailbroken phone, but not 100% fake location, just now the possibility of a fake GPS due to jailbreak" (as long as their coders bothered to check the filesystem access rights for a jailbreak.)


Anybody tested this yet?:
- Tinder (shadow)bans you upon "jailbreak" detection?
- Tinder (shadow)bans you upon "developer mode with fake GPS" detection?
- TikTok (shadow)bans you upon "jailbreak" detection?
- TikTok (shadow)bans you upon "developer mode with fake GPS" detection?

For changing GPS on iPhone reliably, consider using apps like iTools or Dr.Fone – Virtual Location. They offer better control and stability for location spoofing
 
Following this to see if any thing new about that ?
 
For an iPhone, you are going to have to download crane and then change a setting that allows you to switch to new Device ID's. If you want to do it on an android; just use any App Cloner.
