Fake GPS Location

Fake GPS Location is a comprehensive tool designed for developers, QA testers, and privacy enthusiasts to simulate GPS coordinates and test location-based applications without leaving the desk.

Whether you are developing geolocation features, testing geofencing triggers, verifying route navigation, or simply testing app behavior across different coordinates worldwide, Fake GPS Location provides complete control over simulated location data.

KEY FEATURES

• One-Tap Location Teleport:
Instantly set your device's location to any set of latitude and longitude coordinates across the globe with precision.

• Multi-Stop Route Simulation:
Plan and execute realistic routes with multiple waypoints. Simulate continuous movement along predefined paths with automated interpolation.

• Real-Time Floating Joystick:
Control your simulated movement on the fly with an intuitive on-screen floating joystick overlay that works seamlessly across other testing applications.

• Customizable Travel Speeds:
Choose from realistic speed presets including Walking (5 km/h), Cycling (20 km/h), Driving (60 km/h), and Transit (120 km/h), or define your own custom speed.

• Realistic GPS Hardware Emulation:
Enable natural stride cadence oscillation and realistic GPS drift (multipath jitter) to simulate real-world satellite reception conditions.

• Configurable Altitude & Accuracy:
Adjust simulated altitude above sea level and horizontal accuracy radius to thoroughly test altitude-sensitive apps and geofences.

• GPX File Support:
Import standard GPX route tracks to replay recorded paths, or export your custom waypoint routes to GPX format for sharing and backup.

• Place Search & Bookmarks:
Search for cities, landmarks, or addresses using OpenStreetMap search. Save frequently used testing coordinates to your Favorites for quick access.

• Multiple Map Styles:
Switch between Standard Roads, Dark Mode, Satellite Hybrid, and OpenStreetMap views to match your workflow.


HOW TO USE

1. Enable Developer Options on your Android device (Settings > About Phone > tap "Build Number" 7 times).
2. Open Developer Options, scroll to the Debugging section, and tap "Select mock location app".
3. Choose "Fake GPS Location" from the list.
4. Open Fake GPS Location, select your desired coordinates or route on the map, and tap "Start".


PERMISSIONS & TRANSPARENCY

• Location (ACCESS_FINE_LOCATION):
Used strictly to center the map on your starting position and calculate route telemetry. Real coordinates are processed locally in memory and are never uploaded or stored remotely.

• Mock Location (ACCESS_MOCK_LOCATION):
Required by the Android system to allow the app to be selected as a mock location provider in Developer Options.

• Foreground Service & Notification:
Ensures uninterrupted location simulation in the background while displaying an active status notification with an instant stop action.

• Display Over Other Apps (SYSTEM_ALERT_WINDOW):
Used solely for the optional floating joystick overlay control.


DISCLOSURE & USAGE POLICY:
1. Intended Use: Fake GPS Location is designed strictly for software development, QA testing, and debugging location-based applications.
2. Developer Options: This app requires enabling "Developer Options" on your Android device and selecting this application under "Select mock location app".
3. Responsibility: We do not encourage, support, or endorse any use that violates the terms of service of third-party games, services, or platforms. Users are solely responsible for ensuring compliance with all applicable third-party terms.
