FAQs about Pokemon Go Error 12

Q1 Will You Get Banned for Spoofing Pokemon Go?

Yes, players might get banned for spoofing in Pokémon Go. Since the official Pokemon ban on flying people on June 7, spoofer has been unavailable on the market for a while. Our temporary solution is to use third-party software, PoGo Wizard, or devices to change your GPS location, making the game think you are in a different place than you actually are.

Q2 How do I use it after installing it on my phone? When I open it, it still shows 12.

iOS Pokémon users install third-party Pokémon on their phones via Pogo Wizard, and then use iAnyGo to modify the location of the third-party Pokémon game. Players need to open the third-party Pokémon, not the official Pokémon. The data will be synchronized to the official Pokémon game account. It is recommended to log in to the third party with a Google account

If you tried beta1 before, please do following: Uninstall the old version of Pokémon Go(beta1), and reinstall the new one(beta2) on using PoGo Wizard.

Q4 How to spoof Pokemon Go by iAnyGo safely?

If you want to know how some players attempt to spoof carefully, here's how experienced players often try to minimize risks:

  • Use Secondary Accounts: Using secondary or alternate accounts to test spoofing methods can help protect the main account. Therefore, we recommend that current Pokémon Go users first use a spare Pokémon Go account for testing.

  • Simulated Walking Speed: "Joystick mode" allows for simulated walking, reducing the risk compared to teleporting. Try not moving too far, joystick mode below 2.9m/s, single spot movement below 4m/s, DO NOT fly across the cities. create pokemon go Secondary Accounts
  • Use Cooldown Timers: Features such as "cooldown timers" remind players of the time needed between actions to avoid detection. create pokemon go Secondary Accounts
