People play 'Pokemon Go' on their smartphones on Aug 7, 2016 in Taipei, Taiwan.

"Pokémon Go" iOS players are now in luck after a new hack, which requires no jailbroken device, was developed recently. With the new "Pokémon Go" hack, any iPhone owner can cheat without getting banned if they strictly follow the recommended instructions.

According to Value Walk, the hack is not entirely new as it has been around for some time now. However it, previously, required a jailbreak. Thanks to "Pokémon Go" die-hard fans, in the past weekend, a new tweak on the hack has now removed the jailbreak requirement.

Firstly, the hack disconnects itself from other "Pokémon Go" hacks with its uniqueness. And this is tied to its ability to let a "Pokémon Go" player walk anywhere they want without having to move physically. Additionally, it does not scream out to Niantic that the player is cheating, therefore, giving a cheater the privilege of stealth cheating.

Using the hack requires a player to uninstall "Pokémon Go" app from their device if they had already pre-installed it. Then, they are expected to visit the "Pokémon Go" hack website, and install three files as illustrated.

Afterwards, the player will have to install the files of their device to a computer, change a single setting, and finish the process. A YouTube video posted on the channel iCrackUriDEvice has detailed the entire process in a painstaking step-by-step tutorial.

As satisfying as it may sound to a prospective cheater, there is one particular catch, which could appear irritating to some "Pokémon Go" players who resort to using this hack. Apparently, to get the hack to work on one's iPhone, they will have to self-sign/trust the app. To add on the hassle, the self-signed certificate expires within seven days and, therefore, will require one to repeat the self-signing procedure in every week.

Since Niantic wants "Pokémon Go" players to play the game without cheating, players will have to be careful to avoid hitches that could lead them to being identified as cheaters. This means that they will have to follow the instructions as laid out.

Here is a video tutorial of the process of installing the said "Pokémon Go" hack:
