No price was stated on the 3uTools pages checked on 30 October 2026, so none is listed here. Competitor prices can include temporary discounts.
3uTools is a computer program for iPhone management, with clients for Windows and Mac. That is a different job from an app that only changes location. Their Virtual Location guide does not describe a joystick or routes, so those are not claimed here.

How do you set the place with Roam?
- On the iPhone you'll use, open the passes and choose a day, a week, a month or a year.
- Continue in Safari. It reads your iPhone's UDID, then you pay. Your personal install link arrives by e-mail.
- Install Roam from that link. It is not on the App Store. When iOS asks, turn on Developer Mode, then restart.
- Open Roam, search for a place or drop a pin, and tap Teleport. You can also follow a route or move with the joystick.
