0.1 - Beta 9

I know that some people like to update the homebrew version for me. While I do appreciate the work, there is a reason, why I do not update it myself. Usually I wait around a week to see if I broke anything, so that I can fix it before I upload the version to homebrew. I can see the github and homebrew download statistics. I would estimate around 80% of the users, use the homebrew version. I see the github upload as kind of test release, before I roll out the version to the ~200 - 300 active users. If there are no major complains after a week (see the github issues), feel free to update the homebrew version, if I have not done it myself at this time.

⚠️ This is still a beta release. There are most likely bugs. Please test this version and let me know if I broke anything.

0.1 - Beta 8 (v1)

⚠️ This is still a beta release. There are most likely bugs. Please test this version and let me know if I broke anything.

ℹ️ This release build is unsigned, that means you'll need to grant an exception in Gatekeeper to run the app. The easiest way to do this is to right-click on LocationSimulator.app and click on Open. Confirm in the following dialog that you want to open the app.

For some reason macOS might mark the LocationSimulator.app.zip download as damaged. Each time you try to open the app it will tell you the executable is damaged. Unzip the file, place the app in your Applications directory. Execute the following command in your terminal:

xattr -dr com.apple.quarantine /Applications/LocationSimulator.app

I try to prevent this error by adhoc signing the executable with:

codesign --force --deep -s - LocationSimulator.app
