About this app

Change your GPS location with this simple fake location app with Joystick. 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. Set a pin on the map using a long press (same as Google Maps), you can also double tap to zoom in/out on the map. Will also keep working if you reboot your phone. To turn it off just tap on the Stop button (also found in the notification).

* Please read everything from this page before using the app: https://www.netlinkd.com/locationchanger/

* Please note: if the app suddenly stops working or the notification disappears after some time, it is probably because it is background restricted in your Battery settings, please make sure to whitelist it so it can run in the background and work properly. Also, if you are using Mock locations mode it is possible that some apps may detect that you are using a fake location and you may get an error message saying that they failed to detect your location, this is normal and Location Changer still works correctly but unfortunately Android can let apps know 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 on the Joystick and hold it down 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 this case you have to search how to do it for your device. Please use caution by not changing other system settings.

* You can add multiple pins (Add more) on the map and set an interval in seconds to change the location to each pin. Please note that in Android the interval will vary significantly when you turn off your screen/the device goes into sleep mode. To clear the pins, tap on Done and then 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 on where it says Multiple locations).
Enabling Drive will drive the location to the next pin instead of teleporting, based on your speed and will 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 may still detect your real location.

* Please note: to disable Mock locations on your device you will need to do it from Developer options. You normally do not need to disable it back, but some apps may not like it that you have it enabled, as they can detect this. Also, it is important to tap on the Stop button before you disable Mock locations to get your real location back.

Seen a lots of apps like this charge big money for these services, this app is free with only about 3 short ads MAX for both using it and "closing" it, I've used this about 15 or more times and it works amazingly, keeps prying eyes away from my real location, it works for shorter distances though not sure on longer but it works well and for the low low price of nothing, it's amazing. This may sound sponsored or even like im a robot BUT IM NOT, they have a real fan without the charge ā™„ļø tysm

been using about a week and so far so good. no glitches. it's doing exactly what I want to as opposed to other apps I've used. when I'm not sitting on my phone it would jump back to the original location and then when I check my phone and it's an active screen. it moves it back so this one I don't have to do anything once I set it

One of the most useful apps on my phone. I will watch any ad it wants to give me, as long as it does not impede my usage of the app. It rarely breaks, and if it does I only need to restart the app. It has many features I don't need, but appreciate that they are there. It loads quickly and changes my location nearly instantly. I would love an option to be able to change your location with a quick tap, and not holding it.
