2. Location Faker on Cydia Marketplace [Require Jailbreak]

If you are looking for ways on how to change location on dating apps such as Tinder, there's a chance you would've come across two terms – Cydia and jailbreak. Cydia is an app marketplace that acts as an alternative to the Apple official app store. Apps that are available to buy and download on Cydia are not approved by Apple as it goes against their guidelines.

If you wanted to be able to download a location spoofing app for iOS from Cydia when figuring out how to set location on Hinge alternatives like Tinder, you will soon find out that you need to jailbreak your device before being able to do that. Here is a guide on how to jailbreak your iPhone and use the Fake Location app.

Step 1: Install Cydia Impactor on your laptop or computer. Connect your phone to the computer and select trust on your phone. You will need to select the model of your iPhone on a pop-up dropdown on Cydia Impactor. Click Start when done.

Step 3: Once loaded, go to your phone Settings>>General>>Profiles>>Device Management>>Trust Cydia Impactor's developer.

Apple has a lot of restrictions on their devices, and the only way to work around them is to jailbreak the phone. However, the steps of jailbreaking the phone are risky and lengthy. If you are not tech savvy, jailbreak is not your thing.

3. Fake GPS App from Google Play Store

If you are on an Android looking for how to change location on Hinge alternatives like Tinder, you will have come across an app called the Fake GPS app.

Used by many Android users, Fake GPS has made a name for itself as a basic app that allows users to spoof locations on geolocation-based apps. However, it has a very complicated process to set up and is definitely not worth the effort for an app that doesn't provide anything more than a location change.

Here is how to install and use the Fake GPS app:

Step 1: Download and install Fake GPS Location from Google Play Store. The app has a map feature similar to that of Google Maps where you can interact with it to move around and zoom in on the location you want to spoof to.

Step 2: You need to enable your Android device's developer options to be able to spoof your location. To do so, go to your phone Settings app and search for Build Number under the Software Info page. Tap the Build Number 7 times until you get a pop-up message at the bottom of the screen informing that you are now operating the phone as a developer. You can now find the Developer Options menu in the device Settings page.

Step 3: Third step: Open Developer options and click on Mock Locations app. This will open a list of all the apps you have that can spoof your device's GPS location. In this case, select Fake GPS Location app.

Step 4: Now, open up the Fake GPS location app and select the location you want to spoof to by moving around on the provided map. Once you pick a location, click on the green start/play button at the bottom of the screen. To confirm that your location has been spoofed, open Google maps and see where your location is shown as default. It should reflect the spoofed location.

When compared to iMoveGo's easy setup process, amazing collection of features, and the fact that it is the highest rated 5 start GPS software you can find, it is easy to see why Fake GPS isn't people's first choice when searching for how to set up location on Hinge alternatives such as Tinder.
