⚠️ Important Notice:

On iOS 26 and above, using Wi-Fi may interfere with GPS positioning and cause your location to reset to your real location. It is strongly recommended to use a 4G/5G mobile network while playing.

If you need to move or teleport beyond the 17 km system limit, please use the MEGACOM Firewall. You must also follow the cooldown rules.

Connection Guide

Flymon Device Connection Steps

1 Turn on the Flymon device and switch the power to ON.

2 Open the Flymon Center app, then press the joystick on the device. The device will automatically start searching.
Once connected, the screen will show that Bluetooth is not yet connected.

3 After pairing, the app will automatically check the firmware version. If a new version is available, it is recommended to update.

4 On your iPhone, go to Settings > Bluetooth, then find and tap "Flymon" to pair.

Flymon Center App Interface

  • Left Panel: Location Search Bar, Auto Circling, Settings, Movement Range

  • Right Panel: Auto Catch, Return to Location, Route, Favorites

  • Center: Current Location, Map

Basic Operation

  • Real Location: Refers to the device's real GPS position. Without using the MEGACOM Firewall, iOS restricts virtual movement to within a 17 km radius of the real location.

  • Current Location: After opening the Flymon Center app, the center of the map displays Flymon's current virtual location. By default, it matches your phone's real location.
    Users can freely change Flymon's virtual location. If the map has been moved too far and the current location is no longer visible, tap “Return to Location” to re-center the map on Flymon's current virtual location.

How to Move Flymon's Virtual Location

  • Physical Joystick: Use the joystick on the Flymon device to move your virtual location, allowing your character to move freely in the game.

  • Location Search: Search for a location or enter map coordinates. A location window will appear, where you can choose to auto move or teleport instantly.

  • Long Press on Map: Move the map to your desired destination, then long press on the target location. A location window will appear, allowing you to auto move or teleport instantly.

Location Window

After long pressing on the map or selecting a location, a location window will appear. It displays location details and provides options for movement and saving locations.

  • Coordinates: Displays the latitude and longitude of the selected location, with an option to copy.

  • Distance: Shows the distance between the selected location and your current virtual location. This distance corresponds to the recommended cooldown time after movement.

  • Cooldown: If actions such as catching or spinning are performed and you move to another location too quickly, the system may detect this as abnormal behavior.
    It is recommended to wait for the cooldown time after moving before continuing gameplay. Please refer to the following sections for details.

  • Go (Auto Move): Simulates natural movement such as walking or cycling. Movement speed can be adjusted in Settings.

  • Teleport: Instantly move to the selected location.

  • Memory Slots: Save locations directly to the Flymon device.There are 3 available slots, allowing you to store or overwrite locations for quick access using the physical device. Please refer to the following sections for details.

  • Save to Favorites: Save multiple locations to your Favorites list for quick access.

Auto Circling

After enabling this feature, Flymon uses your current virtual location as the center point, moves to the maximum set radius, and begins circling counterclockwise from the outer edge inward.
Once it returns to the starting point, the movement will repeat automatically. Tap Auto Circling again to stop immediately.

Go to Settings to adjust the circling radius and movement speed.

Route Feature

By adding waypoints, you can create a route across multiple locations. The route starts from your current virtual location and can be set to repeat in a loop.
For detailed instructions, please refer to the tutorial video: https://youtu.be/zoG0FaWGp2I

Options

  • Default: A blank default route. This route cannot be renamed. To create a custom route, please add a new one.

Movement Limits & Safety Guidelines

Movement Range

  • iOS imposes restrictions on GPS simulation, limiting how far movement can occur.

  • When Movement Range is enabled, a dark circular area will appear on the map, indicating the allowed movement zone.

  • The range is centered on your current real location, with an approximate radius of 17 km.

  • For safer use, it is recommended to move naturally and follow cooldown rules after movement to reduce the risk of account restrictions.

 

⏱️ Cooldown

To maintain fair gameplay, the system monitors rapid location changes and frequent teleportation.

When actions such as catching Pokémon or spinning PokéStops are performed, your location is recorded and monitored.

If the distance traveled within a short period of time is unrealistic—whether moving before or after teleporting—it may be detected as abnormal behavior.

⚡ Cooldown Reference Table

Cooldown time may vary depending on in-game activity and movement behavior.

Always wait before performing actions such as catching Pokémon or spinning PokéStops after moving.

Always follow cooldown rules to avoid potential restrictions.

Distance Recommended Cooldown
1 km ~ 30 seconds
5 km ~ 2 minutes
10 km ~ 6 – 8 minutes
25 km ~ 11–15 minutes
100 km ~ 30 – 35 minutes
≥ 1500 km ~ 2 hours

Actions That Trigger Cooldown

If you perform any of the following actions, you must wait according to the cooldown chart before making long-distance movements.
Cooldown is not explicitly indicated by the system and must be tracked by the user.

Auto Catch Flymon's auto catch feature performs automatic catching and spinning, which will trigger cooldown. It is recommended to disable this feature in advance.

Actions That Do NOT Trigger Cooldown

After moving, if you only perform the following actions, you can continue moving at any time without waiting.
