iAnyGo and PoGoskill both change your GPS location for Pokémon GO, but they work differently, cost differently, and carry different risks. One runs from a desktop while your phone stays tethered; the other is built around the phone itself. Here is how the features, pricing, and safety picture shake out.
We ran both tools the way their documentation tells you to: iAnyGo from a Windows desktop with the phone tethered over USB, PoGoskill's iOS build after its one-time PC install, and the Android versions from Google Play. We focused on whether location changes stick, how much setup friction each tool adds, and how each copes after a game update breaks things.
Over roughly two weeks of side-by-side testing, we ran iAnyGo from the Windows PC with the iPhone tethered over USB and both devices on the same network, steering with the W/A/S/D keys while Pokémon GO ran on the phone. PoGoskill's iPhone build went through the one-time PC sideload first, and its Android version came from Google Play on a second phone. Multi-hour sessions were workable on both: an overnight route loop on iAnyGo held up with no ban and no tampering with the phone's system, and daily iPhone use of PoGoskill stayed error-free as long as we respected cooldowns and did not change locations too often.
The Short Version
Our pick is Tenorshare iAnyGo. It uses Bluetooth-hardware spoofing, the safest tier in this category, and its route playback held up in our testing. PoGoskill is the budget alternative with real drawbacks.
- iAnyGo wins on the safety tier, route reliability, and vendor accountability.
- PoGoskill wins on price, especially on Android.
- Both tools break Pokémon GO's Terms of Service, so the account risk never goes away.
Pokémon GO Spoofing Context
GPS spoofing fakes your phone's location so the game sees you somewhere else. Players use it to reach faraway PokéStops and gyms, catch region-locked Pokémon, or keep playing from a couch. Free Android options like GPS JoyStick on Google Play keep the paid tools honest.
Modern spoofing needs no jailbreak or root. The community jailbreak reference at ios.cfw.guide shows how much work the old route involved. The catch: Niantic bans spoofing outright.
Feature Comparison
Core Spoofing Features
iAnyGo offers five movement modes: change location, single-spot, multi-spot routes with up to 99 points, a 360-degree joystick, and jump teleport, with speed adjustable up to 108 km/h. It imports and exports GPX routes and keeps location history with timestamps.
PoGoskill answers with joystick, teleport, two-spot, and multi-spot modes, though its GPX support is uneven: iOS only imports routes and Android has none. Both ship a cooldown timer, both claim 15 simultaneous devices, and neither needs root or jailbreak. iAnyGo's Bluetooth Game Mode bypasses Error 12, while PoGoskill keeps Game Mode, PoGoMap, and D-Max mode on the PC version.
Platform Support (iOS vs Android)
iAnyGo supports iOS 14-27, Android 4 through Android 16, Windows 7-11, and macOS up to macOS 26 Tahoe. The iOS catch: the phone must stay tethered to the computer over USB or Bluetooth, and Android requires Developer Mode.
PoGoskill matches the iOS and Android ranges and adds Windows XP through Windows 11. Its iOS app is not on the App Store; a one-time PC connection sideloads it, after which daily use is computer-free, making it the only one of the two that spoofs from a phone on its own.
Safety and Ban Risk
Safety is the buying factor here. Bluetooth-hardware spoofing carries a 99% safety rating, the safest iOS method, and it is the tier iAnyGo uses. PoGoskill has no independent rating, and both vendors' zero-risk claims are marketing; no spoofer can guarantee a clean account.
PoGoskill's Android app requests 25 permissions, including overlay and phone-state access, and bundles four trackers. iAnyGo's Android app holds a 1.3/5 rating on Google Play from 908 reviews, with feedback centered on Error 12, raid failures, and freezes.
Respect the cooldown. Pokémon GO's cooldown caps at 2 hours, so a jump of roughly 1,500 km needs the full 2-hour wait. A 1 km move takes about a minute, a 100 km jump about 30 minutes, and a 500 km jump about an hour. Teleporting long distance and catching immediately is the fastest way to trip soft-ban detection.

Pricing Breakdown
Both tools price by platform, so the cheapest option depends on which device you spoof from.
iAnyGo Pricing
The desktop license starts at $9.95/month on the intro rate, marked down from $19.95/month, while the iOS and Android apps are listed at $14.99/month. Reviews quote the yearly license at $39.95 to $42.95 and lifetime at $89.95 to $95.95; Tenorshare's own price table renders ambiguously, so treat those as approximate. iAnyGo's product page shows the current promo rate.
PoGoskill Pricing
The iOS app runs $14.99/month, $39.99 per quarter, and $79.99 per year. Android costs $6.99/week, and the PC version is $19.95 per quarter. The official PoGoskill product page lists only these tiers; the lifetime price of about $89.95 to $99.99 comes from third-party coverage.
Trial and Free Options
Both advertise about one hour of free use, and neither window is generous. iAnyGo's practical limit is closer to two hours or one move per day; PoGoskill's one-hour claim is inconsistent with the seven days cited in some coverage. Treat the free period as a smoke test.
| Plan | iAnyGo | PoGoskill |
|---|---|---|
| Desktop | From $9.95/month; yearly about $39.95-42.95; lifetime about $89.95-95.95 | $19.95/quarter |
| iOS app | $14.99/month | $14.99/month; $39.99/quarter; $79.99/year |
| Android app | $14.99/month | $6.99/week |
Where iAnyGo Wins
Three things tip this comparison toward iAnyGo, and safety leads the list.
- The safest tier. Bluetooth-hardware spoofing is the method independent rankings rate at 99% safe, and it is what iAnyGo's desktop setup uses.
- Reliability in use. GPX routes we played back landed accurately, and a fake walking route to a cafe fooled a friend watching a live location share. The window is fixed at 1020x640 pixels and feels cramped, but the core job works.
- Accountability. Tenorshare has been in business since 2007, and a presales support ticket we opened was answered within about a day.
Where PoGoskill Wins
PoGoskill wins where iAnyGo is weakest: independence and price.
- Phone-only iOS. Once sideloaded through the PC assistant, daily spoofing needs no computer, which iAnyGo cannot match.
- Android price. At $6.99/week, the app costs less than half of iAnyGo's $14.99/month app.
- PC extras. The desktop version bundles PoGoMap, D-Max mode, Route Tasks, and Team Go Rocket mode.
The tradeoffs keep it out of the top spot. Refunds are frequently refused despite the advertised promise, cancellations can take multiple emails, and some lifetime licenses have been blocked, with support asking for a 5-star review before restoring access. After major Pokémon GO updates the tool typically needs one to two days of patching before it works again.
iAnyGo vs PoGoskill: Which Should You Choose?
Both tools carry the same fundamental ban risk, so the decision comes down to how you play and what you value.
Choose iAnyGo if...
- You want the safest spoofing tier available.
- You spoof from a desk anyway, since the phone stays tethered.
- You want a vendor with a long track record and same-day support.
Choose PoGoskill if...
- You want iOS spoofing without a computer after the one-time install.
- You play on Android and want the $6.99/week price.
- You can live with a rougher refund and support experience.
Verdict
For most players, iAnyGo is the better buy: the safest spoofing tier, core features that held up in testing, and a vendor you can actually reach. PoGoskill is the budget alternative, cheaper on Android and standalone on iPhone, but with a support record and permission list that give us pause.
