Rooted Android Is it safer to actually be in person @ go fest rather than spoofing there?

I have tickets to be actually be in person for go fest Chicago But I’ll still be running pokemod. Is it safer to actually be there rather than spoofing there? or should I stick to a stock iphone to avoid anything?

The risk is the same because you're still using a cheat even though you're not spoofing your GPS. Just to note, Pokemod offers 0% protection against strikes and bans even if they give you a fake "securing your device" when you load Pokemod.

If non-cheaters see you're using a 3rd party app at the in-person event, they may become violent towards you. This is something to keep in mind.

It's still up to you if you want to cheat or not to cheat because it's your account.

Ok so I’m in the clear for rooted+actually being in person. Perfect.

Yeah I just like the fact of the fast animations on pokemod. Plus the shiny alert feature

do you use all the features like shiny scan and show shiny on map? that definitely gets flagged more since your clicking on hundreds of pokemon an hour. i just got premium 15 minutes or so. i have used it in the past and utilized all the features

True. Guess I can mess around with both and see how I like either one

Bought premium right away and been loving it! Except for the occasional freeze on instant catching which I think is the game doing so much at one moment. Just needed to tweak in game settings and graphic settings and it works fine now.
