PGSharp is a popular third-party app used to spoof your location in Pokémon GO, allowing you to play the game without physically moving. However, PGSharp is a paid service, and there is no official free version.
Can You Use PGSharp for Free?
While PGSharp requires a license key (paid subscription), some users look for cracked or modded APKs to bypass payment. However, these methods come with risks:
- Malware & Viruses – Many free APKs contain harmful software.
- Account Bans – Niantic actively detects and bans spoofers.
- No Updates – Cracked versions often lack security patches.
Legitimate Free Alternatives to PGSharp
If you want to spoof for free, consider these (still risky) methods:
1. Use the Free Trial (7-Day Key)
PGSharp occasionally offers 7-day free trial keys through their official Discord.
- Join their Discord and check announcements.
- Redeem the key in the PGSharp app.
2. Use iPogo (Android/iOS – Jailbreak Required for iOS)
- iPogo (Android) has a free version but is also detectable.
- Download from iPogo’s website.
3. Use a GPS Spoofer (No Root)
- Fake GPS Location (Android) – Works on some devices.
- Developer Mode Spoofing (Android 6-11) – Requires enabling mock locations.
4. Play on an Emulator (Like BlueStacks or LDPlayer)
- Install Pokémon GO on an Android emulator and fake your GPS.
- Risk: Emulators are easily detected.
Warning About Spoofing
⚠️ Niantic bans spoofers frequently – Using PGSharp or any spoofing tool can lead to strikes or permanent bans.
⚠️ Free APKs are unsafe – Many contain spyware or steal data.
Conclusion
There’s no 100% safe and free way to use PGSharp for free. The best free option is their 7-day trial, but after that, you’ll need a paid license. If you still want to spoof, proceed with caution and understand the risks.
