How to spoof your location 2023 | Works in any application

Hi, I will show you how to easily fake your current location for free in two ways.

Follow simple steps:

Hidden Content

• Open your favorite package manager, add the source https://udevsharold.github.io/repo/ and download the locsim tweak.

Locsim is a tool to simulate GPS location system-wide. This tool simulates GPS location natively without any runtime injection, and it's how Apple do it.

At this point, you can already spoof your location, just open the terminal and use the command described below.

Spoiler

Usage: locsim <SUBCOMMAND> [LATITUDE] [LONGITUDE] [OPTIONS]
if LATITUDE and LONGITUDE not specified, random values will be generated

SUBCOMMAND:
	start	start location simulation
	stop	stop location simulation
OPTIONS:
	-x, --latitude <double>: latitude of geographical coordinate
	-y, --longitude <double>: longitude of geographical coordinate
	-a, --altitude <double>: location altitude
	-h, --haccuracy <double>: radius of uncertainty for the geographical coordinate, measured in meters
	-v, --vaccuracy <double>: accuracy of the altitude value, measured in meters
	-s, --speed <double>: speed, or  override average speed if -g specified, measured in m/s
	    --saccuracy <double>: accuracy of the speed value, measured in m/s	
	-c, --course <double>: direction values measured in degrees
	    --caccuracy <double>: accuracy of the course value, measured in degress	
	-t, --time <double>: epoch time to associate with the location
	-f, --force: force stop simulation, requires root access
	--help: show this help
ADDITIONAL GPX OPTIONS:
	-g, --gpx <file>: gpx file path
	    --plist <file>: exported or valid plist file path
	-l, --lifespan <double>: lifespan
	-p, --type <int>: type
	-d, --delivery <int>: location delivery behaviour
	-r, --repeat <int>: location repeat behaviour
	--export-plist <file>: export converted gpx file to plist
	--export-only: export converted gpx file to plist without running simulation

Example:

locsim start --latitude "38.8968149" --longitude "-77.0379032"

 and poof, you're in the white house!

But why bother with coordinates? There is a simpler way, using this tweak. 

1. You will need the Shortcuts app from the App Store and localssh / OpenSSH from your favorite package manager (I downloaded mine from the palera1n strap repo)
2. Download this shortcut created by me
3. Open the Shortcuts applications and edit the downloaded shortcut - exactly we are interested in the command "Run the script over SSH", where we set the data as needed. (Default port 22, username mobile and password alpine).
4. Open Apple Maps, pin anywhere, click Share and select the shortcut you downloaded earlier. From the menu, select "Start fake GPS" or if you want to stop "Stop fake GPS".

That's it, to change the location the only thing you need to repeat is step 4.

i think im doing something wrong with the shortcut as i keep getting the message:

Location Simulate 56

zsh:1: no such file or directory: /usr/local/bin/locsim

Do you have the tweak installed? If so, try removing the "/usr/local/bin/" part and leave only the locsim command.
