Change your GPS location with this simple fake joystick location app. Prevent apps and websites from tracking your real location and protect your privacy. Test your location-based apps. This app also shows detailed location information so it can be used as a powerful location status tool. Place a pin on the map with a long press (same as Google Maps), you can also double tap to zoom in/out on the map. Continues to work even if you restart your phone. To turn it off, tap the Stop button (also found in the notification).
* Read all of this page before using the app: https://www.netlinkd.com/locationchanger/
* Note: If the app suddenly stops working or the notification disappears after some time, it's probably because the app has been limited in your battery settings in the background. If you use Mock Locations mode, some apps may detect that you are using a fake location and give you an error stating that they did not detect your location. This is normal and Location Changer will still work properly, but unfortunately Android can tell apps if you are using a Mock location.
* Joystick: This can be enabled from Settings - Joystick. To set the maximum speed (in km/h) go to Settings - Speed. Double-tap and hold the joystick to drag it to a new preferred position.
* What is "Mock Locations"? Mock Locations is a hidden setting in Developer Options in the Android operating system that allows a device owner to set any GPS location for testing purposes. To enable developer options, go to your device Settings - About and tap Build number 7 times. This may be different on some devices, in which case you will need to find out how to do this for your device. Be careful not to change other system settings.
* You can add multiple pins (Add More) on the map and set an interval in seconds to change the location for each pin. Please note that in Android the interval will vary significantly when you turn off your screen/the device goes to sleep. To clear the pins, tap Done and long press on the map or search for a location to set a new single pin. You can also change the pins from the location status screen (tap where it says Multiple locations).
Enabling Drive will drive the location to the next pin instead of teleporting based on your speed and update based on your interval.
* Please note that this app does not change your IP address, this is not a VPN. Applications/websites that check your location based on your IP address can still detect your real location.
* Note: To disable Mock locations on your device, you must do it from the developer options. Normally you don't need to turn it off again, but some apps may not like that you turned it on because they can detect it. It's also important to tap the Stop button before disabling Mock Locations to get your real location back.
