DevLocation is a location simulation and GPS debugging tool for iOS developers. From Mac, simulate a single coordinate or a continuous route on an iPhone with Developer Mode enabled, so you can test maps, navigation, and location-based features on a real device. For development and functional testing only. Enable Developer Mode, connect with USB, and tap Trust. Follow local laws and the Apple Developer Agreement. FEATURES • Single-point mode: pick a map location, search an address, or enter coordinates • Route mode: set start, via, and end points, then simulate walk, run, cycle, or drive • Speed and GPS jitter: adjust speed and add slight jitter to test accuracy logic • GPX import and export: reuse tracks or save the current route • Follow roads: optionally generate road-aligned paths • Favorites and history: save places and routes, replay previous sessions • Mac and iPhone companion: sync on the same network; stop and restore from iPhone • Shortcuts: set or stop location simulation on Mac HOW TO USE ON IPHONE The iPhone app is a companion. It shows status and lets you stop and restore. Simulation is started from Mac. 1.
