A game like Pokémon Go is brilliant in that it relies on location to let you discover and capture Pokémon. But sometimes you want to catch 'em all without moving a muscle. If you'd prefer to kickback and still traverse the area to catch Pokémon, you'll want to look into the PokémonGoAnywhere add-on. And for this, you'll need a couple of things.
The first is a Jailbroken iPhone (or iPad or iPod Touch). If your device is unlocked past Apple's permissions, you'll be able to add this repo in Cydia and search for the PokémonGoAnywhere app. But if your phone is jailbroken you're likely thinking, "Pokémon Go doesn't support jailbreak devices." To play the game while jailbroken, you'll want to install the tweak MasterBall orPokéPatch. These will let you play on a jailbroken device.
Once PokémonGoAnywhere is installed, the hack lets you tap to walk and even change speed. While the point of the game is for players to explore their surroundings, a little couch Pokémon Go-ing never hurt anyone. Though be wary: you may raise some eyebrows if Niantic ever cracks down on folks faking their location.
Play Right On Your Lockscreen
If you do happen to be on a jailbroken iPhone, the fun isn't over. Another app,PokémonLock, lets you play Pokémon Go without ever unlocking your phone, which will ruin your battery life of course. But if you're playing a marathon session of the game anyway you may as well do so with as little effort as possible. Like before, this game will require that you use MasterBall, PokéPatch or some other tweak to allow you to play the game while jailbroken.
Unfortunately for this tweak to work, you'll need to have your passcode disabled. We personally don't think that security risk is worth it just for quicker Pokémon. But who knows, perhaps that rare Snorlax would've been yours if you had been seconds quicker.
