## What it is
An iOS app (Swift/Xcode project) that turns an iPhone or iPad into a virtual joystick controller for Pokemon Go, serving the chosen GPS coordinates over a local HTTP server. A companion Python script converts those coordinates into GPX files that Xcode uses to simulate the device's location, enabling safe or remote play.

## Use cases
- play pokemon go without walking outside
- spoof gps location on ios for pokemon go
- use an iphone as a joystick controller for pokemon go
- simulate location in xcode with a gpx file
- play pokemon go in areas where it is unavailable
- automate location updates via http and python scripting

## When to choose
- you want an open-source, self-hosted GPS spoofing setup for Pokemon Go using only an iOS device and Xcode
- you are comfortable building an Xcode project and running helper scripts on a Mac
- you need a hardware-controller-style joystick rather than a jailbreak tweak

## When to avoid
- you want a maintained tool with recent updates or official support
- you cannot or will not use a Mac with Xcode
- you need a solution that works without a second iOS device or manual GPX simulation steps
- you are concerned about violating Pokemon Go's terms of service and risking a ban
