One of the most popular things you can do with a jailbroken iPhone or iPad is spoof your location. A number ofjailbreak tweakslet you do this, but perhaps one of the most simplistic of those releases launched last Summer and was calledRelocateby iOS developerNepeta.
After being on an extended jailbreak tweak development hiatus, Nepeta is now back with the community and has launched an updated version of the aforementioned tweak dubbedRelocate Rebornwith full support for iOS 13. As you might come to expect, Relocate Reborn is just as easy to use as the original Relocate tweak, but it comes with a number of additional features that you may find extraordinarily useful.
Relocate Reborn is unique in the fact that it lets you drop a pin somewhere on theMapto set your location. This user interface is particularly streamlined in comparison to that ofLocation Faker, which necessitated users to manually discern and designate specific longitude and latitude coordinates and paste them into the preference pane.
After dropping a pin, users will then have the ability to configure advanced options, such as changing the map view to display standard, satellite, or hybrid imagery and overriding the default altitude value to something you’d prefer. Merely tapping on the Save button at the top right of the interface saves your new spoofedlocation.
Upon installing Relocate Reborn, users can configure a number of tweak-centric options via the dedicated preference pane that gets added to the Settings app:
Here, you can:
We particularly like the attention to detail here, as users can choose between a global spoofed location setting or configuring it on an app-by-app basis. We also like the option to disable GPS, although this should be used carefully as it may make location spoofing detection easier to discern by apps. Furthermore, it’s nice that you’re able to choose to use your real location for Apple’s Find My services, as it ensures that your device can be found if stolen – even with a spoofed location for other apps.
As we noted earlier, location spoofing is often against many apps’ terms of service. If you do this with apps such asPokémon GO, you can be disciplined if not banned for this behavior.We advise caution while using location spoofing and assume no responsibility for misuse of Relocate Reborn. You spoof your iPhone’s location at your own risk.
