Part 1. What Is VMOS APK?
VMOS is an application available to smartphones based on Virtual Machine. The application is capable of running in Android phones that rocks Android version 5.1 and later. With the virtual machine on your phone, you can run another dedicated Android on your phone that has its own interface, Play services, and settings. Using the application will not affect your original Android; that’s why spoofing location with VMOS is a smart way to not get banned from Pokémon Go.
Part 2. Does VMOS Still Work for Pokémon Go?
The answer is yes! VMOS still works for Pokémon Go. In the last Pokémon Go update, developers patched the game that does not work in virtual devices. VMOS had rough times coping up with the Pokémon Go update; they received user complaints and responded. Eventually, VMOS developers came up with fixes that allow playing Pokémon Go virtually.
If you use the application with care and don’t jump too high on the application, you will likely stay safe on the game. However, the location spoofing on Android devices does not work if it’s not rooted. It is a significant demerit to consider while using VMOS on Android.
Part 3. How to Use VMOS for Pokémon Go?
Let’s be clear, installing VMOS for Pokémon GO for the first time is not easy, as always. You need to do some configurations on both the Original Android and Virtual Android box.
Required Applications:
- VMOS application

- File Explorer (ES File Explorer)
- VFIN 1.0.1
- Pokémon GO application
- GPS Joystick App Ninja
The following steps will guide you with detailed steps.
- Download and Install the VMOS application on your Android phone.
Enabling root mode access on VMOS
Disable “Find my Phone”.

Part 4. Can I Spoof Pokémon Go Location on iPhone?
VMOS is particularly an Android Virtual Machine and doesn’t support iOS devices, so we recommend Tenorshare iAnyGo. The tool allows you to route location once, twice, or multiple times. Follow the stepwise guides here:

Now, click on the “Start to modify” option below the location suggestion.
Also, if you want to view your actual application, click on the back button. There, you will see your exact coordinates. You can also see your “Coordinate collection” and “historic records,” you can also set the coordinates to favorites.
