Short version: iAnyGo wins for Pokemon GO and for anyone who cares about price. Its cooldown timer is the best in the category and the lifetime licence is $10 cheaper. AnyTo wins on interface and multi-stop routes, and its Bluetooth mode is the only way in this pair to stay spoofed after unplugging the cable. Both change your iPhone's system GPS the same way, over USB from a desktop app, so neither is "more powerful" than the other. The differences are at the margins, and the margins are what this page is about.

Pricing: iAnyGo Is Simply Cheaper
iAnyGo runs $9.99/month or $69.99 lifetime. AnyTo runs $12.95/month or $79.95 lifetime, and the Bluetooth mode that makes AnyTo interesting costs extra on top. Over a year of monthly billing the gap is about $35. Neither company is generous with refunds, so treat the monthly plan as the real trial: pay one month, confirm it works with your iPhone and iOS version, then decide about lifetime.
One caveat that applies to both: a "lifetime" licence in this category means the product's lifetime, not yours. This market has a history of tools dying suddenly (iSpoofer in 2022, Dr.Fone Virtual Location discontinued in 2024). Price that risk in.
Pokemon GO: iAnyGo, Not Close
The single biggest practical difference. Niantic's anti-cheat punishes teleporting faster than a real person could travel, so spoofing Pokemon GO safely is all about respecting cooldown windows. iAnyGo has a proper cooldown timer built into the map view that tells you exactly how long to wait based on the distance of your last jump. AnyTo expects you to track this yourself. If Pokemon GO is your use case, this one feature decides the comparison.
Routes and Movement Simulation: AnyTo
Both tools simulate walking, cycling, and driving speeds along a route. AnyTo's multi-stop route editor is the best in the category: you drop pins, drag to reorder, set speed per segment, and loop the route. iAnyGo does all of this too, but the editor is clunkier and reordering stops is annoying. For dating apps or fitness apps where you want believable sustained movement rather than teleports, AnyTo feels noticeably better.
The Cable Problem, and AnyTo's Partial Answer
Both tools need a USB connection to a computer to set the spoofed location. The spoof survives unplugging, but it also silently resets whenever the iPhone reboots or iOS decides to refresh location services, and then you are back at the desk. AnyTo's Bluetooth add-on keeps a connection to the computer without the cable, which makes re-applying the spoof less painful, as long as you stay in Bluetooth range. It is a genuine convenience, not a revolution, and it costs extra. iAnyGo has no equivalent.
So Which One Should You Buy?
- Pokemon GO: iAnyGo. The cooldown timer is the feature that keeps accounts alive.
- Dating apps with believable movement: AnyTo, for the route editor.
- Tightest budget: iAnyGo, $69.99 lifetime is the cheapest serious option of the two.
- Hate clunky software: AnyTo. You will notice the difference daily.
- Only need to send a fake location in chat: neither, see below.
Before You Pay for Either: What Are You Actually Trying to Do?
A large share of people comparing these two tools do not need a system GPS spoofer at all. If your goal is to send a fake location to a person, a match on Hinge, your family group chat, a friend on WhatsApp, the recipient only ever sees the map card you share. No app on their end reads your system GPS. A free tool that generates a real Apple Maps card with any coordinates does that job with zero setup, zero desktop software, and zero subscription.
Free Alternative for Chat Shares
Location Changer drops a pin anywhere on the world map and generates a real Apple Maps card with the address, coordinates and elevation. Share it to iMessage, WhatsApp, Telegram or Mail. No computer, no subscription. Free.
FAQ
Do iAnyGo and AnyTo work on the latest iOS?
Both vendors update within days to weeks of each iOS release. Check the changelog date before buying, and avoid updating iOS on day one if the spoofer matters to you.
Can either be detected by apps?
The GPS change itself looks like a normal location to most apps, but pattern analysis (impossible travel speed, mismatched IP geolocation) can flag you. Pair with a VPN in the same city for apps that care, and respect cooldowns in Pokemon GO.
Do they need jailbreak?
No. Both use Apple's developer tunneling over USB. No jailbreak, no profile installs.
Is there a cheaper serious option than these two?
LocaChange at $59.99 lifetime undercuts both, with a feature set a step behind iAnyGo on cooldown precision. It is the budget pick if the lifetime price is the deciding factor.
