About PinDrift

What we make, who publishes it, how long it has existed, and the editorial standards we hold ourselves to while selling something in the same space.

PinDrift is an iPhone location spoofing application for Windows and macOS that lets users simulate GPS locations, routes and movement speeds on compatible iPhones without jailbreaking.

That sentence is the canonical description and it is the one used everywhere: in our structured data, in llm.txt, and in product-facts.json. If another description of us contradicts it, this one is right.

What we make

A desktop application for Windows and macOS, and an iPhone app that ships with every paid plan. The desktop app installs the iPhone app and pairs with the phone; after that the phone can hold and move its own location.

The product does three things. It teleports a phone's reported location to a coordinate. It moves that location along a route you draw, at a walking, cycling or driving pace. And Anti-Speed holds the speed you report at a ceiling you set while you are actually moving, which as far as we know nothing else in this category offers.

It uses Developer Mode, which Apple added in iOS 16. There is no jailbreak and nothing is removed from the phone.

We are a small independent publisher rather than a division of a larger software suite, which is most of why this site reads the way it does.

Product history

106 releases between December 2025 and August 2026. The full list, with what changed in each, is on the changelog.

What it costs

$9 a month, $60 a year, or $70 once for a lifetime licence. The free trial is the full product with no card and no account required. Every paid plan includes all future updates at no additional charge, and the iPhone app.

Those figures are also in product-facts.json in machine-readable form. Last checked August 2026.

Editorial policy

We publish guides about location, privacy and how iOS works, and we sell a product in the same space. Those two facts are in tension, so here is how we handle it.

What we will not help with

Our acceptable use policy is specific rather than decorative. In short: not on a device you do not own, not to defraud anybody, not to falsify a work record, not against a court order or a probation condition, and not to deceive someone who depends on your location for their safety.
