In Pokémon GO, performing tasks is part of the deal and in order to catch them all and level up one will need to walk and hatch Eggs. Thankfully, doing so just became easier with the help of new hacks that increase the chance of getting rare Pokémon and fake the act of walking with the use of an iPhone that requires no jailbreak.
There is no certified trick that will lead to the hatching of an Egg into a rare Pokémon but according to CNET it is more likely that the 10km types will crack and deliver the more powerful pocket monsters. For the purpose of getting the rare out of an egg, some form of investments will need to be made.
First on the list are extra incubators, which can be earned while progressing into the game or can be bought. As the report noted, having more than one incubator will ensure that the hatching process will speed up from the usual pace.
It's important too that hatching is done regularly as it is the quickest way of replacing the 2km and 5km Eggs that are in abundance in the game. Dispatching these Eggs as quick as possible will free up slots that likely will soon be filled by the prized 10km Eggs.
Now on the subject of walking that usually is fun but eventually tiring. When the latter sets in, the tricks to pick from is either to strap a phone running the Pokémon GO app on a ceiling fan or set the device on the turntable. Any of the two will cheat a player to some miles of virtual walking.
But if fake walking calls for actually stepping out, CNET recommends taking the city bus. Apparently, at the speed rate that the vehicle runs is nearly equal to fast walking and Niantic will not notice.
Or GO players can go for the 'fake walking hack' that is available for iPhone users, which according to BGR has been recently updated. The usual requirements remain - the use of a modified Pokémon GO app to replace the Niantic-issued and installation of three files.
The modified app though will have to be self-signed every seven days as the app certificate expires after that period but is readily refreshed when the installation process is repeated. There is no usage or cycle limit so the trick is available forever or until such time that Niantic has detected the cheat tool but the prospect of that happening soon seems remote.
And the best thing about the updated hack is jailbreaking of the iPhone to be used in playing Pokémon GO is no longer required. The detailed video presentation of the hack, which BGR said will let a player walk anywhere, follows below, courtesy of YouTube channel iCrackUriDevice:
