They likely have the data to show it didn’t move at all. Eg it wasn’t on your person.

Not that that’ll actually work or that they’ll care, but still…

You underestimate how much of a couch potato I am. Not moving is normal lol.

Even sitting on a couch moves your phone more than simply laying on a table. They can use accelerometer data to determine how, if at all, it moved.

If I’m sitting on the couch, the phone is not on me. It’s on the table next to me or on a counter somewhere. I don’t even always look at it if I get a message. Sometimes I’ll wait hours after I get a message to read it.

Put a harness on your put and put it on the harness. Boom, instant spoofing.

Ask a non-protesting friend or family member to take it with them about their daily routine?
I’m sure my mum would be happy to look after my phone for a day if it meant getting one over on three authorities. And if anyone asks, I’m just a good son who likes to hang out with his mum.

Even better, have your tv on the whole time, so if the tv sends telemetry data that’s also linked to the phone, it’ll show you were at home the whole time.
