I guess this is a huge flaw in iOS .. like currently it's happening for PokemonGo currently the normal users are able to spoof device location to a desired one in non-jailbroken devices .. any idea or workaround to detect location simulation by Xcode ?
To simulate location on a Simulator, select Features menu > Location, then you will see a list of location and movement options you can simulate. A list of location and movement options you can simulate in a Simulator.
Core Location provides services that determine a device's geographic location, altitude, and orientation, or its position relative to a nearby iBeacon device. The framework gathers data using all available components on the device, including the Wi-Fi, GPS, Bluetooth, magnetometer, barometer, and cellular hardware.
Using GPX location spoofing returns -1
for heading
and speed
- If your are looking for ways to detect spoofing, if the CLLocationManager
is providing Lat,Lng
s that are moving, but you're not receiving speed or heading, then the likelihood is the location is being spoofed.
