WLoc8

OpenHRTT WLoc is an open source iOS Apple mobile phone network positioning auxiliary tool, which can help you modify the positioning of your mobile phone.

iOS device positioning comes from two sources: one is GPS satellite signals, and the other is network positioning from Wi-Fi and base stations. WLoc aims at the latter. It reports your specified latitude and longitude directly to the system by intercepting Apple's network location service request (gs-loc.apple.com). As long as your device relies on network location, WLoc can take over.

Compared with some solutions that require a computer, jailbreaking, or installing complex plug-ins, WLoc is more lightweight and mainly relies on proxy tools and scripts to run.

Prime OpenHRTT WLoc is an open source project. If you are worried about risks, you can download the code and host it yourself. Project address: https://github.com/OpenHRTT/wloc

Secondly, OpenHRTT WLoc only needs a web page to implement positioning modification, without the need to install other separate programs.
