WLoc8

OpenHRTT WLoc is an open-source tool for assisting in the network-based location determination on iOS devices. It allows you to modify the location information displayed on your phone. There are two main sources for determining the location of iOS devices: one is GPS satellite signals, and the other is network-based positioning through Wi-Fi connections and cell towers.

Introduction

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.

Tutorial

  1. Use iPhone's Safari to open the webpage provided by the project: Online experience: https://wloc8.com/
  2. Enter the "Tutorial" page and click "Download Certificate".
  3. Go to "Settings → General → VPN & Device Management" to install the certificate.
  4. Then go to "Settings → General → About This Mac → Certificate Trust Settings" and manually turn on the certificate switch.
  5. Return to the web map, search or click to select a location.
  6. Click "Lock Location" to allow the system to add VPN configurations.
  7. Follow the prompts to refresh the system location service.

Friendly reminder: Completely trusting the root certificate has certain risks, and it is recommended to evaluate it carefully. In addition, the success rate is higher in places with weak indoor GPS signals.
