Alot of ua dont get tracked by wife or S ,O
The OP situation is a tough one.
Id seriously consider making friends with someone who works in the nearby vicinity of his fun spot
. maybe the deli guy at the supermarket on the same block as the massage parlor.
Maybe the bartender next door.....and leave the phone with them for an hour.
He can say he grabbed a beer.
I dont know.
Rent a mailbox nearby and leave it there for an hour.

Its a tough one

In a previous discussion about this topic, I suggested finding places near your spas as excuses. A gym would be perfect. Easily explains an hour of time. Restaurants is another. Now that dining in is allowed again, it's another usable excuse. Scouting the couple of blocks around the spa is worthwhile.

@RickeyRomance - Here's a simple solve for the GPS locator issue:
  1. Get a small closeable metal box and leave it in your car trunk with a small multi-tool like a Leatherman and a pair of utility gloves.
  2. Park near a restaurant or any location you can plausibly be at for an hour.
  3. Contact your provider, let her know you are 5 minutes away and that you're leaving your phone in the car.
  4. Leave your phone, earbuds, and smartwatch powered on, put them in the metal box in your trunk, close the box, and then close the trunk.
  5. Go monger and have fun.
The locator app will show last known location of your parked car and it will look like you lost signal for a while. The spa or provider apartment will not be in your location history which will eliminate questions from your family. If you get calls while you're in session, it will likely go straight to voicemail. You can claim the restaurant has spotty cell coverage. If the metal box is ever questioned, it contains tools you need in case you are ever stuck.

Now all you have to do is pick providers in walking distance of restaurants ;)

What about putting it in airplane mode?
Or turning off the tracking? there is an option to turn off "Share My Location"

Depending on the tracking software, that activity may be logged and reported. The idea was to force the phone to lose the GPS tracking signal at an excusable location without turning off location services in his phone's software. He also won't have to remember to turn the location services back on after a blissful session, including the dreaded tracking software.

I was once asked 'why did you turn off the 'Find Your Phone' feature'? Turning it on and off is almost more incriminating than being at certain locations for a time. haha
Does it give a message when its turned off? i thought it just says location not available which is the same as if you have no signal

It says device not found. Happens alot even in Manhattan.

To the OP. Give the smart watch to your kids and get a mechanical expensive one. Get rid of the air buds. Say they hurt your ears/can’t hear well. As for the phone, use google maps in logged out mode. Block location services on other apps as much as U can. I neutered Siri from all apps. Delete most apps to begin with.

Other than that, as others have said, find a reason to be in the area where u will monger. Also schedule when everyone else in the family is busy with other things.

When asked why did i turn it off i would respond why are you tracking me? Just shut down all location service and tracking apps.. you are not in 3rd grade and your wife is not your mother!

Here’s what I do. I have an iPad connected to my iCloud. In the Find My Phone app you can choose to share my location from this device. It doesn’t notify anyone who you have shared your location with. I stop by a relatives and leave the iPad there, change the location to share from it.
do my business, drive near the area on my way back and from your iPhone do the same with share your location from this device. No one is notified.
hope this helps if you have a similar scenario.

My SO thinks I’ve let my sister borrow my iPad as I never use it, so it stays there.

One easy way to spoof iPhone locations without jailbreaking your phone is with the iSpoofer app. Just be aware it is free to use only for a few days, but that will be long enough for you to reassure yourself that it works. After installing it you can pick the fake location you want and iSpoofer will communicate that to all apps. When you want to resume accurate tracking again just turn your phone off and then on. I am not sure iSpoofer supports devices after iPhone 13 but my guess is that it likely will.

Then lose the iPods down a sewer grate and get something dumber. Good luck and keep your wits about you.

I don’t believe it supports iOS 14

My wife isn't my Mother. My Mother can't ask for a divorce and potentially cost me half of all my assets. If your wife thinks you are cheating on her (and this hobby counts as cheating), then finding proof just helps her divorce case against you.

All we're doing is making harder for her to find that proof.

@Bqanon Yeah. I looked and you are correct. iSpoofer doesn’t support iOS 14. Dr.Fone’s toolkit still works, though. I see it now is also able to create the illusion that you are traveling from point A to point B. Not bad.
