@xoxo112 you read the README but you skipped the part where it states that it is meant for smartphones and not laptops, try reading the README again

i checked it on smartphone and it worked for google map but the city name in the terminal is still incorrect... one thing more i am just a beginner i want to know is it legal to do all this or not? i am neither performing any attack nor stealing anything but still confused about it either it is legal or not....
