Works with
Wherever they check, you're there.
Elsewhere changes the location iOS itself reports, so apps don't have to support it. Find My, Snapchat, Life360 and everything else on the phone see the same place.
Also Google Maps · Instagram · WhatsApp · Messages · Tinder · Hinge · Bumble · Weather — and every other app that asks where you are.
Elsewhere isn't affiliated with or endorsed by Apple, Snap or Life360. App names are trademarks of their owners.
How it works
Pick a place. Tap Spoof.
- 01
Search anywhere
Type a place, tap the map, or paste coordinates. The map shows where your phone really is, so you can see the difference.
- 02
Tap Spoof
The pin drops wherever you chose — across town or across the world. One tap sends it to the phone.
- 03
Every app believes it
It's set at the system level, through the pathway Apple ships for developers — not a fake inside one app. Stop puts your real GPS back.
Routes
Drive a route like a real car.
Pick a start and an end. Elsewhere moves your phone along real roads at the speed a car would actually do them — lights, corners and all.
01 / 04
Real roads
Routes come from Apple Maps directions — actual streets, turns and one-way rules. Not a straight line over rooftops.
02 / 04
Red lights, on your terms
Choose how many signals are red. The car pulls up, waits, and leaves when it changes — and raising the count turns exactly one more light red.
03 / 04
Real speed limits
Each road's posted limit from OpenStreetMap, braking for corners like a driver would. Stop signs always stop.
04 / 04
An arrival time that holds
The whole drive is planned before you leave, so the ETA doesn't lurch around. And arriving isn't stopping — the spoof stays at the destination.
Everything else
Small things, done properly.
Saved places
The spots you use often, a tap away. Tap one and the map is already there.
Paste coordinates
Latitude, longitude — straight from a map link. Or just type a place.
No jailbreak
Your iPhone stays completely stock. Nothing about iOS is modified.
Stop means stop
One tap and real GPS is back. Restarting the phone does the same.
Holds in the background
Lock the screen, open other apps. It holds for as long as Elsewhere is running.
Your locations stay yours
The places you pick are never sent to us.
Setup
Four minutes with a cable. Then never again.
Apple only lets an app like this in through a computer. So you use one once — to install the phone app — and then it stays home.
- 01
Plug in, click Set Up iPhone
On your Mac or PC. Elsewhere signs the phone app with your own free Apple ID and installs it.
- 02
Unplug
That's the computer's whole job. From here on, it's just your iPhone.
- 03
Pick a place, tap Spoof
Every app on the phone sees the new location. Stop puts the real one back.
Before you buy
The honest requirements
Each of these, found out after paying, would be a refund. So here they are first.
- A Mac or Windows PC, once. Apple requires a computer to install an app this way. You won't need it again afterwards.
- iOS 17.4 or later, with Developer Mode switched on — Apple's own toggle, in Settings.
- Wi-Fi to start a spoof. iOS only runs the service Elsewhere uses while the phone is on a local network.
- Elsewhere left running in the background. Force-quit it and your real location returns about thirty seconds later.
Questions
Asked, answered.
Something else? Write to support@elsewheregps.com — a person answers, usually the same day.
Do I need a computer?
Once, to install the phone app — Apple requires a computer to sideload an app this way. After that the computer stays home.
Which iPhones work?
Any iPhone or iPad on iOS 17.4 or later, including iOS 27. You'll switch on Developer Mode in Settings, which is Apple's own toggle.
Does it work on cellular?
Starting a spoof needs Wi-Fi. iOS only runs the developer service Elsewhere talks to while the phone is on a local network, so cellular alone isn't enough to begin — that's Apple's limit, not ours.
Can my accounts get banned?
Elsewhere doesn't touch your Apple ID. But some apps and games detect a simulated location and may restrict accounts that use one. That risk is yours to weigh.
What happens if I force-quit the app?
The spoof ends about thirty seconds later and real GPS returns. Leave Elsewhere running in the background and it holds — through the lock screen and other apps.
Is this safe for my iPhone?
Yes. There's no jailbreak and no modification to iOS. The only thing added is the Elsewhere app, which you can delete like any other.
