[Question] How long does the spoofed location stay active? #118

I always used the built-in Xcode location "spoofer" but as soon as I plugged out my device it returned to it's real location. While using your great app it stays spoofed for a while. I was wondering what the approximate time was until it returns to my real location.

To my knowledge it doesn't reset automatically. Either connect it to LocationSimulator and click on the reset button or reboot your iOS device. Now that you mention it, I have no idea how Xcode resets the location when the device is disconnected. When you disconnect your device, it is already too late to send any commands to it...

Ahhh okay! I once read that 3utools used the same thing and it was around 3 hours. I'll check tomorrow if it's still spoofed. It's cool feature anyways :D Will update tomorrow

12 hours in and it seems persistent. Turning location services on and off seems to stop the spoofing.

Good to know !

Btw. You can download version 0.1.9.2 from github (it is not yet live on homebrew). This version introduces the more natural keyboard navigation.
