Favorites
A favorite is a named place you walk or teleport to. Favorites stay on your device. See the privacy policy. Move favorites to another phone with Backup & Transfer.
The Favorites list
- Tap a favorite to walk there (straight line or via roads) or teleport there. Teleport is hidden when Hide teleport features is on.
- Sort favorites A–Z, Z–A, newest, or oldest. The widget's favorites lists use the same order.
- Drag a favorite or a group to put it where you want. Choosing a sort order replaces your own order.
- Tap the house icon on a favorite to make it your Home. The app then starts there instead of your last location. Only one favorite can be Home. Tap the house again to clear it.
- The three-dot menu lets you edit a favorite, copy its coordinates, send them as a message, or delete it.
- The share button next to Sort sends your current location as decimal degrees. The widget has the same button.
Search and groups
- The search box finds favorites by name, group, or area as you type.
- Hot locations are grouped under their area name.
- Make your own groups: open a favorite's three-dot menu and choose Move to group. Type a new name to create one.
- Your groups are listed first, above the hot location areas. Favorites without a group come next.
- Tap a group name to fold or unfold it. Use the three-dot menu on a group to rename it or delete it. Deleting a group keeps its favorites.
- The map sheet and widget have the same search. Closing the list clears it.
How to add a favorite
Tap the add button at the bottom right of the Favorites screen. Pick one of these methods.
- From coordinates: type latitude and longitude in separate boxes.
- Paste coordinates: paste a pair in decimal form or degrees, minutes, and seconds.
- From map: pick a point on the map.
- Use current location: save where you are now.
The paste box on the map can also save a pasted pair as a favorite.
From map
"From map" opens a full-screen map. Tap to place a pin, or search for a place by name. The search uses an external service.
- Search by place name to move the map to an address or landmark.
- Tap the map to move the pin to an exact spot.
- Confirm to save the pin with a name.
Last known position
In Settings, turn on Show last known position to pin a Last known position card to the top of your favorites. It is where your phone really was just before you started spoofing. This is off by default.
- The card shows how long ago the position was saved.
- Tap it like any favorite to go back to where you started, without stopping.
- The position is saved each time you start spoofing. If your phone has no recent real position, the old one stays.
- If you moved while spoofing, the card is out of date.
- It is not a favorite. It is not saved in backups or sent to other phones.
History
The app remembers the last 50 places you jumped to. Tap the History icon at the top of the Favorites screen to see them, newest first.
- Each row shows the coordinates and how long ago you jumped there.
- Tap a row to go there again, like a favorite.
- Tap the heart on a row to save the place as a favorite.
- Tap Clear history to empty the list.
- Jumping to the same spot again moves it to the top instead of adding a copy.
- The first jump of a route replay is not listed. History is not saved in backups or sent to other phones.
Hot locations
In Settings, turn on Show hot locations to add popular places around the world to your favorites. They include cities, parks, and landmarks. This is off by default. A long list in Settings starts closed. Tap the arrow on its header to open it.
- Turning it off removes only the entries this feature added. Your own favorites stay.
- Each hot location uses its country as its area name.
- The list updates online. Places that are removed disappear from your favorites while this is on.
