+++IMPORTANT+++ Be aware that after using FakeGPS you may find your location LOCKED TO THE LAST MOCKED LOCATION EVENT AFTER UNINSTALL FakeGPS!
It's not a bug and your GPS sensor isn't broken. There are two ways to fix this issue: 1. Install "GPS Status" from the Play, launch and get a fresh GPS fix. You may need to repeat it several times with 30 min interval. 2. Start FakeGPS, set your real location and leave it so for several hours. You may combine these steps. The issue will disappear in one or two days - be patient.
For ROOTED devices you can mock locations without enabling "Allow mock locations" option. To do so please use Root Explorer or other similar app and move /data/app/ru.lexa.fakegps~1.apk to /system/priv-app or to /system/app (for Android 4.3 and older). Then change apk permissions to rw-r-r and reboot your device. If you find apk in /syste/priv-app disappears after reboot it means that your devices has S-ON mode enabled and so restores /system folder aftear each reboot. Please google how to switch your device to S-OFF mode.
If you can't find ru.lexa.fakegps.apk in /data/app you may find it at /mnt/asec/ru.lexa.fakegps/1.apk. In this case you should copy and rename it to /system/priv-app/ru.lexa.fakegps.apk.

This app works great for what I need! One thing I'd change is to be able to search a specific address, city or location. Instead, it takes me to a zoomed in map elsewhere in the state where I then have to zoom out a bunch, find where I need to go, and zoom into it. Luckily I'm familiar with the areas I need but if I wasn't, it'd be less convenient to use. I thought I used to be able to search locations when I first was using it a couple of years ago, not sure if it changed, or I remember wrong.

No ads, simple ui, simple tools, perfect 100%
★★★★★mohamed saad· Jul 14, 2026
Need to improve the duration of sharing more than 15 minutes, the fake location returns to real location during timeless than 2 minutes
★★★★☆Ekene Okpareke· Jul 4, 2026
Works but...the location switches back and forth between real and spoofed location every 3 seconds. Why does this happen?
★★☆☆☆Rakesh Kumar Singh· Jun 23, 2026
Just few weeks back, the app was working with developer mode off, But it is not working now. What is the reason?
★☆☆☆☆Juanita Menendez· Jun 15, 2026
Works for 5 seconds and then shuts off on its own
★★☆☆☆James P Velasco II (Zombiextreme420)· Jul 15, 2026
Unless I am missing something does not provide full security with at least life 360 gave me a delay, but they still knew I went there after I got home suggest maybe limit 360 to while I use the app, although it does not like that . Also don't use life 360 it's dumb
